Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • Vscan
  • ONTAP Antivirus Connector 1.0.6
  • Symantec Protection Engine (SPE)

Answer

  • When vscan engine stops working and does not respond to AV connector, AV connector disconnects the vscan connection (named pipe) until the vscan engine get back to normal.
  • When there is no change in the status after the SEP service is restarted, restart the AV connector service as a workaround on the AV connector side.
  • However,When restart AV connector service doesn't help, it may be due to vscan engine or network problem.
