What is CAVA? (this post) CAVA Considerations and basic setup CAVA troubleshooting (which is really why I am doing this) The official spiel is this:

The EMC® Celerra® AntiVirus Agent (CAVA) provides an antivirus solution to clients using an EMC Celerra Network Server using industry-standard CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocols, in a Microsoft Windows server. CAVA uses third-party antivirus software to identify and eliminate known viruses before they infect files on the storage system Clear as mud? Here is a pretty picture of the main parts.

So, here are the main points and I’ll expand on some of it later:

ŸModifying & Closing an existing file. Creating and saving a file. Moving or Copying a file. Restoring a file from backup. Renaming a file with different extension. Scan on Read if Access time is earlier than reference time for CIFS clients. This means that if a file has been scanned before, and a new virus definition has been downloaded, then that file will be scanned again when the file is read. How often your virus definitions are updated by your AV provider can be configured in your AV software. For a more detailed description of the steps and points here, the Using Celerra AntiVirus Agent documentation is a great document, and it has guides for installing and configuring CAVA for all the AV vendors.

I’m working on the next two posts now…
