Configuring advanced settings of SVM operation

You can configure additional SVM operation settings in the Protection Server policy settings using the Administration Console, and in the Web Console when creating or editing the Protection Server policy settings (Application settings → Advanced settings). First, enable display of additional Protection Server policy settings.

To configure additional SVM settings in the Administration Console:

1. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
2. In the Managed devices folder in the console tree, open the folder with the name of the administration group to which the required SVMs belong.
3. In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
4. Select a Protection Server policy in the list of policies and right-click to open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
5. In the policy properties window, select the Advanced settings section in the list on the left.
6. In the right part of the window, configure the following advanced settings of the SVM:
   • Maximum number of simultaneous scan requests

     Maximum number of scan requests from Light Agents simultaneously processed by the Protection Server. Light Agents generate scan requests during protection of virtual machines and while running scan tasks.

     By default, the Protection Server can process 75 scan requests simultaneously.

   • Maximum number of scan tasks started by schedule

     Maximum number of simultaneous scan tasks running on the Protection Server that have been started according to the Light Agent schedule. These scan tasks are low-priority tasks for the Protection Server.

     By default, five low-priority scan tasks are performed simultaneously.

   • Maximum number of scan tasks started manually

     Maximum number of simultaneous scan tasks running on the Protection Server that were started manually. These scan tasks are high-priority tasks for the Protection Server.

     By default, five high-priority scan tasks are performed simultaneously.
