Definition

Unique name with which a virus scan server can be addressed in the system.

Use

Dependencies

The name of the virus scan server must correspond to the name of the RFC destination that contains the technical connection to the virus scan server.

This must be an RFC destination of the type "T" (TCP/IP connection) with the activation type "Registered Server Program".

The name of the RFC destination must be used as the program ID, and the address of a system gateway as the gateway host and gateway service.

If you have the CCMS start the virus scan server on an application server, you should choose the gateway of this application server.

Example

We recommend that you use the following naming convention for the name of the RFC destination of a virus scan server:

  • VSCAN_<host_name>, if you only want to start one virus scan server on the host
  • VSCAN_<host_name>-<number>, if you want to start more than one virus scan server on the host. The <number> is a sequence number, and is separated from the host name by a hyphen.

Possible names would therefore be: VSCAN_HOST123, VSCAN_HOST345-1, VSCAN_HOST345-2, ...
