Creating a Protection Server database update rollback task

You can create an update rollback task using the Administration Console or using the Web Console. In the Web Console, the task is created with the default settings. You can configure the task launch schedule in the task properties window.

To create a Protection Server database update rollback task in the Administration Console:

1. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
2. Do one of the following:
   • Select the Managed devices folder in the console tree to create a task for SVMs belonging to all administration groups. In the workspace, select the Tasks tab.
   • In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, select the folder with the name of an administration group to create a task for all SVMs in this group. In the workspace, select the Tasks tab.
   • Select the Tasks folder in the console tree to create a task for one or several SVMs (a task for a set of devices).
3. Click the New task button to start the New Task Wizard.
4. At the first step of the Wizard, select the type of task. To do so, in the Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.1 Light Agent – Protection Server list, select Update rollback.

   Proceed to the next step of the New Task Wizard.

5. If you have started the New Task Wizard from the Tasks folder, specify the method of selection of the SVMs for which you are creating the task. You can select SVMs from the list of virtual machines discovered by the Administration Server, manually specify the SVM addresses, import a list of SVMs from a file, or specify a previously configured selection of devices (for details, please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center documentation). Depending on the specified method of SVM selection, perform one of the following operations in the window that opens:
   • In the list of detected virtual machines, specify the SVMs on which you want to create the task. To do so, select the check boxes in the list on the left of the names of relevant SVMs.
   • Click the Add or Add IP range button and enter the addresses of SVMs manually.
   • Click the Import button, and in the window that opens select a TXT file with the list of addresses of SVMs.
   • Click the Select button and in the window that opens specify the name of the selection containing SVMs on which you want to create the task.

   Proceed to the next step of the New Task Wizard.

6. In the Scheduled start field, select Manually. Configure the remaining task launch schedule settings. For more information about the task launch schedule settings, see Kaspersky Security Center manuals.

   Proceed to the next step of the New Task Wizard.

7. Enter the update rollback task name in the Name field.

   Proceed to the next step of the New Task Wizard.

8. If you want the task to start as soon as the New Task Wizard finishes, select the Run task when the wizard is complete check box. Exit the New Task Wizard.

The created custom scan task appears in the list of tasks. You can start and stop the task manually.
