Question
What actions will trigger a background scan?
Answer
- Initial installation of the sensor into a policy where background scan is enabled
- Moving the sensor that was installed into a policy where background scan was disabled to a policy where it's enabled
- Running an on-demand scan with Repcli
Additional Notes
Once a Background Scan has run to completion on a given machine, another one will not be run without either 1) uninstall/reinstall of Sensor or 2) using RepCLI to run an on-demand scan
