Running an automation policy

Kaspersky Security Integration with SolarWinds N-central includes three predefined automation policies related to Kaspersky Lab security applications:

• Kaspersky anti-virus protection status

  It checks whether a Kaspersky Lab security application is installed on a device and, if installed, its version; whether Network Agent is installed on a device and, if installed, its version; the time of the last anti-virus database update on a device; and the time of the last virus scan on the device.

• Kaspersky virus scan

  It checks whether a Kaspersky Lab security application is installed on a device and, if installed, performs a virus scan on the device.

• Kaspersky anti-virus database update

  It checks whether a Kaspersky Lab security application is installed on a device and, if installed, updates the anti-virus database on the device.

You can run any of these automation policies as a scheduled task applied to certain devices and device filters.

To run an automation policy:

1. In SolarWinds N-central, in the Actions section, click Run an Automation Policy.
2. On the Details tab, in the Repository Item list, select the required automation policy.
3. On the Targets tab, select the required device filters and individual devices to which you want to apply the automation policy.
4. On the Schedule tab, specify the schedule for the automation policy.
5. Configure other parameters of the task, as required. For details, refer to the SolarWinds N-central documentation.
6. Click the Save button.

The automation policy run task is saved and is run according to the specified schedule.

You can find the saved tasks and view their run status in Configuration → Scheduled Tasks → Add/Delete.
