The scan scope refers to the locations of files which are scanned by the application while running a scan task. You can expand or narrow the scan scope by adding or removing objects to be scanned by the application.
To create the scan scope:
Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, open the folder with the name of the administration group to which the relevant protected virtual machines belong.
In the workspace, select the Tasks tab.
In the list of tasks, select the virus scan task for Light Agent for Linux and open the Properties: <Task name> window by double-clicking.
In the window of Light Agent for Linux virus scan task properties, select the Settings section in the list on the left.
The task settings will appear in the right part of the window.
In the Scan scope section, click the Settings button.
The Scan scope window opens.
In the Scan scope window, do one of the following:
To add a new object to the list of objects to be scanned, click the Add button.
The Select object window opens.
If you want to change the path to an object, select one from the list of objects and click the Edit button.
The Select object window opens.
If you want to remove an object from the scan scope, select one from the list of objects and click the Delete button.
A window for confirming deletion opens.
You cannot remove or edit objects that are included in the default scan scope.
Do one of the following:
If you want to add a new object, enter the path to it in the Object field of the Select object window and click Add.
The object added in the Select object window appears in the list of objects in the Scan scope window.
Click OK in the Select object window.
To change the path to an object, enter a different path to the object in the Object field of the Select object window and click OK.
If you want to remove an object, click Yes in the removal confirmation window.
If necessary, repeat steps 7 and 8 to add objects, change the path to objects, or remove objects from the scan scope.
If you want to exclude an object from the scan scope, clear the check box next to the object in the Scan scope list. The object remains on the list of objects to be scanned, but it is not scanned when the scan task runs.
