Virus Scan profile activated - implications?

Hello.
we have a custom program that makes IDOCS into PDF's and then emails them.
if the Virus Scan profile /SCMS/KPRO_CREATE is not activated it fails saying that it isnt activated.
There is Note 1382313 that states not to activate it, only if you need it activate it.
So we do need it and activated it now but what else is now scanned as well?
And how come its needed when we create documents? So far I have only found it to be needed for incoming objects?
Thanks for thinking!
Andi

Though the profile is active, you need a virus scanner.
you need External Virus Scanner to be setup in the VSCAN--> Servers.
Few Virus Scanners are McAfee, Avira, and http://www.bowbridge.de/index.php?id=31&L=1
BowBridge.
Once the setup is done, use VSCANPROFILE---> Activate it and use VSCANTEST to test sample antivirus.
After the activation only the docuemnts which are using the profile are scanned, the idea is when you upload a documet to SAP then it is scanned.
Thanks

  • Virus scan profile activation in ODATA

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing an issue while uploading Image(*Base64 format)
    into SAP through Netweaver Odata Gateway services. The issue is that the
    content of the Image is supposed to come in a field that has datatype Xstring
    but when we include a field with data type Xstring the framework starts giving
    an error no virus scan profile is active . We did try various combinations of
    Standard Virus Profile maintained , but no resolution came out of it. Now we
    have created a new profile in customer namespace but now it gives an error
    Incorrect Configuration for Profile <Profile Name>. We need help in
    trying to figure out what is correct configuration that is to be maintained to
    fix this issue.
    There is an alternative that we deactivate the Virus Scan
    profile through transaction /IWFND/VIRUS_SCAN and then we are able to post the
    images , but this doesn’t look like an ideal solution as it would involve
    transporting Virus scan profile to Production and quality and then deactivating
    them over there manually.
    I am getting error on "Recursive occurrence of virus scan profile  in the sequence"
    Please suggest.

    Hi Joerg,
    I found some soluation also. They shared a one document. i did the changes but still same problem.
    Scan Profile setup
    Transaction SM34 -> VSCAN_PROFILE_VC
    Transaction /IWFND/VIRUS_SCAN
    Set the Zprofile to the default
    The Table /IWFND/C_CONFIG should have the entry
    Please suggest . i have internal system and we dont have virus server. I am confused.

  • CG36 - No virus scan profile is selected as the "default profile"

    When running transaction CG36 - Import Reports, I'm getting this message in the job log:
    "No virus scan profile is selected as the "default profile"                   VSCAN         034          I"
    Do I have to set up a default profile for virus scan? I have never seen this error until recent upgrade. Is there a way to by pass this virus scan if we choose not to activate it?
    Thanks!

    I encountered the same problem during the CG36 transaction.
    "Error during virus scan in file "...\usr\sap\.....\xixoxoxioxo.pdf" with Message class "CM_REPORT_IMP_EXP"   010     E
    Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE.
    This may be due to BASIS security level virus scan checks on the files being imported to the application server. Is BASIS assistance required on this or any workaround to bypass?
    Thank you.

    -> what for files do you upload? Compressed files like zip or normal files?
    I mainatined the gui_upload in virusscan settings.
    -> you mean you configered and exclude directory in your virus scan settings? Which vendor is it?
    Some more details would be nice to understand your problem.

  • Please explain Virus Scan Interface?

    When we run virus scan on SAP server CPU utilization go high ,SAP team advice us to disable the virus scan.
    They told us that they Virus interface in SAP. My question how it work is it ok not to install Antivirus software’s on SAP server

    Architecture of the Virus Scan Interface & help me in defining Defining Scanner Groups
    The structure of the Virus Scan Interface allows you to combine different products, systems, and platforms to scan your applications for viruses. This is possible, since SAP provides a certified interface for the virus scan products of other vendors.
    The partners’ virus scan engines can, for example, have completely different architectures.  However, by integrating an adapter using a proprietary connection, any partner can, however, connect any existing virus scan product to the virus scan interface.
    On the SAP side, different VSILIB layers are used to include the ABAP and Java worlds, and to deal with platform dependencies (of operating systems and processors, that is, 32 or 64 bit) in the integration of the virus scan interface.
    Use
    A scanner group combines multiple virus scanners of the same type to allow load balancing. Since you select the virus scan server using the scanner group when maintaining the virus scan profile, you must assign each virus scan server to a scanner group.
    Maintain a scanner group for each product class of virus scanners that are connected to the system using the virus scan server. If you include your own virus scanners with the BAdI VSCAN_INSTANCE, create a scanner group for each implementation of your own scanner and identify these as BAdI implementations.
    You can store configuration parameters for each scanner group. These are divided into initialization parameters and scan parameters:
    &#61623;        Initialization parameters are transferred to the virus scan server when it is started, and are required to be able to start the virus scan server. If you use the Business Add-In, these parameters for the method of creating the scan instance are transferred. The parameters contain, for example, the path to the virus signatures.
    &#61623;        Scan parameters are transferred for each scan process and control the behavior of the individual request, such as yes/no for activating the scanning of macros.
    For information about which configuration parameters are required or supported by the product that you use, see the documentation for the product.
    SAP does not deliver any scanner groups.
    Procedure
           1.      In the Implementation Guide, choose (IMG) SAP Web Application Server ® System Administration ® Virus Scan Interface.
           2.      Choose the Execute option next to Define Scanner Groups.
    The screen View: Change "Scanner Groups": Overview appears.
           3.      Choose New Entries.
    The screen New Entries: Overview of Added Entries appears.
           4.      Specify the data for the scanner group.

  • My 3 year-old macbook pro is very slow. I have run disk utility and virus scan with no improvement. The "beach ball" will spin for minutes at a time when opening, closing or changing windows. Apple Store looked at it a few months ago with no help.

    my 3 year-old macbook pro is very slow. I have run disk utility and virus scan with no improvement. The "beach ball" will spin for minutes at a time when opening, closing or changing windows. Apple Store looked at it a few months ago with no help. What can I do?

    Under CPU: 3.5% user; 5% system; 91% idle; 441 threads; 90 processes.
    Under System: out of 2GB - 54.7MB free; 530MB wired; 603MB active; 862MB inactive; 1.95GB used.
    Is too much of the system memory tied up? If so, what can I do to free some up?

  • My itunes account shuts down for no reason.  It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

  • How do I get rid of these annoying virus scan pop-up windows?!?

    Every time I get on my laptop, these stupid virus scan windows pop up and they won't go away! No matter if I press Eject or Cancel, and as you can see, there is NO option to x it out! Only the yellow and green buttons show up, but the red X button does not! I took a picture of four of them and then all ten that are open. It seems more keep opening up whenever another program opens or seems to be running in the background! It's so frustrating! Has anyone else ever experienced this? I have the 2008 black MacBook. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    You have some kind of anti-virus software installed, which should probably be removed. I can't immediately identify the icon, though. When these scans are running, open Activity Monitor (found in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder), click the CPU tab and make sure the items with high CPU usage numbers are sorted to the top. Then take a screenshot of the Activity Monitor window and post it here.
    Make a screenshot by following the directions here:
