About Update tasks
Kaspersky Security for Windows Server provides four system update tasks: Database Update, Software Modules Update, Copying Updates, and Rollback of Database Update.
By default, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server connects to the update source (one of Kaspersky's update protected devices) every hour. You can configure all Update tasks, except for the Rollback of Database Update task. When task settings are modified, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server will apply the new values at the next task start.
You are not allowed to pause and resume Update tasks.

By default, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server copies databases from the update source to the device and immediately starts using them in the running Real-Time Server Protection task. The On-Demand Scan tasks start using the updated database at the next start.
By default, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server runs the Database Update task every hour.
Software Modules Update
By default, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server checks whether software module updates are available on the update source. In order to start using installed software modules, a protected device restart and / or a restart of Kaspersky Security for Windows Server is required.
By default, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server runs the Software Modules Update task on a weekly basis on Fridays at 4:00 PM (according to the regional time settings of the protected device).
