Anti-Virus-Software on SAP-Apps - Exclude list

Former Member — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 08:16:56 GMT

Hi All,

we are planing to install the Anti-Virus-Software Forefront on our Windows SAP-Application-Server (Dialog Instances).

The exclude list for the virusscanner:

C:\usr\sap\MRP\D20\work

C:\usr\sap\DAA\SMDA97\work

C:\usr\sap\MRP\work

C:\WINDOWS\NTDS

C:\WINDOWS\NTFRS

C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Datastore

C:\WINDOWS\SYSVOL

On Sunday night we plan a full scan on the server.

Do you have any additions to the exclude list?

Thanks for your support.

Andreas

Hi,

Here, the only SAP exclusive antivirus exclusion that we configure on abap dialog instance servers, is to exclude the icman.exe process to be "considered as a worm spreading spam emails". Otherwise, SAP has a lot of difficulties to send emails !

Of course on the abap DB/CI server we have set an exclusion for all database files.

Regards,

Olivier

We chose another avenue. We find that excluding directories or drives is dangerous.

instead, we chose to exclude some processes such as:

disp+work.exe

gwrd.exe

icman.exe

igsmux.exe

igspw.exe

msg_server.exe

oracle.exe

saposcol.exe

saprouter.exe

sapstartsrv.exe

tnslsnr.exe

brbackup.exe

brarchive.exe

brrestore.exe

I think a hyprid solution is the best.

We will start with the exclude dirs and this exclude processes:

disp+work.exe

gwrd.exe

icman.exe

igsmux.exe

igspw.exe

msg_server.exe

oracle.exe

saposcol.exe

saprouter.exe

sapstartsrv.exe

tnslsnr.exe

brbackup.exe

brarchive.exe

brrestore.exe

Thanks for your fast help!

Regards,

Andreas

Ok, thanks for the notes.

We will exclude the following processes (not the processes in the message before):

disp+work.exe

gwrd.exe

icman.exe

igsmux.exe

igspw.exe

saphostexec.exe

saphttp.exe

saposcol.exe

saprouter.exe

sapstartsrv.exe

tnslsnr.exe

jstart.exe

And we think about to turn on the firewall.

Regards,

Andreas
