Where can I find detailed information on the options available for configuring BigFix AntiVirus? I have read the BigFix AntiVirus Deployment Guide PDF, but it seems like it is mainly full of screen shots on just a vanilla install with no descriptions of what the settings actually mean.
For example, when configuring the options on the “Cure” screen of the Real-Time Detection Options Wizard , Rename and Move are two of the options available. What is the file renamed to and to where does the file get moved to? What is the option “System Cure?”
Also, there seems to be no validation that values the administrator inputs are formatted correctly. On the exclusions for directories and processes, one could enter in any format one wished and I haven’t found a way to validate that the correct format is used except to actually try and and see. Specifically, can wildcards be used in the directory path so that a drive letter does not have to be specified? Can a path be specified for process names or is it just the name of the exe file alone. I am not able to find the answers to these questions in any of the documentation that I have seen.
I want to really understand the product and the options so I can use it effectively as well as making sure it actually is working. Have I just missed an in-depth reference that’s already out there or what? I need more info!
