Summary: Huntress MAV allows you to run manual (full or quick) scans, or schedule daily quick scans for specific agents or organizations. 

Running a Manual Scan

Within the Agents tab, simply click on the agent you’d like to perform the scan on

Once you’ve selected the agent you wish to perform the scan on, select the Antivirus tab

Once under the antivirus section on that particular agent, you can start a manual scan by finding the "manual scans" panel and then clicking manual scan. This can be either a quick scan or a full scan

Scheduling Scans

Huntress MAV gives the option to schedule quick scans in daily increments. 

For information on scheduling full scans, please see Managed AV - Full Scans

Scheduling quick scans for a single agent

Following the same steps above, you can also schedule a scan to be run on a single agent daily.

Once on the antivirus page for the specified agent, you’ll click on ‘Policy Status’ , then 'Configure'.

After clicking configure, you’ll then click ‘Scans’. 

In the ‘Scans’ menu, you can then configure a specific time you’d like it to run on a daily basis. You can also set up "Catch-up scans" in case a daily scan is missed. 

Scheduling quick scans for an entire organization

You can schedule scans for an entire organization by going to the Managed Antivirus (MAV) tab after selecting the organization you wish to schedule scans for

Once in that tab, simply click the configure button and then choose scans.
