ID 264052

You can set a limit on the number of custom scan tasks that a non-privileged user can simultaneously run on a device. There is no limit on the number of tasks that a user with root privileges can run.

You can enable or disable the limit on the number of concurrent custom scan tasks on the command line using the LimitNumberOfScanFileTasks option in the general application settings.

You can edit the setting using command line options or a configuration file that contains all general application settings.

LimitNumberOfScanFileTasks accepts values between 0 and 4294967295. Default value: 0.

If 0 is specified, a non-privileged user cannot start custom scan tasks.

If you installed the graphical user interface package when installing the application, the LimitNumberOfScanFileTasks settings has the default value 5.
