Notifications > URL Filtering and Scan Engines Update
You can have IWSVA email you or specified others whenever it runs a scheduled Scan
Engine or URL Filtering Engine update. Update events are written to a log, regardless
of the notification configuration.
Notification messages include a Subject only, and can be triggered for any or all
of the following events:
-
Successful—the file has been updated and IWSVA is now using it
-
Unsuccessful—a scheduled update did not occur; possible reasons:
-
The network connection was unavailable
-
The proxy server settings are incorrect or have changed
-
ActiveUpdate server was busy or did not respond
-
The download was blocked or otherwise failed
-
The downloaded file was corrupted
-
The current file could not be replaced (in use, write protected, etc.)
-
The current file was replaced but there is a problem reading the new file
-
The replacement occurred, but the update is not complete because one or more IWSVA
services could not be restarted
-
IWSVA was unable to complete a scheduled virus pattern update
-
IWSVA was unable to complete a scheduled scan engine updated
-
Not needed—IWSVA checked and found that the file(s) it is currently using are already the most
current available

Note
Although you can be notified for any or all of the three states, to avoid an abundance
of email messages, many administrators choose only to be notified if the update failed
and will write a subject especially for that situation.
