Daily Safety Check Management

Once the Windows Monitoring Agent is installed the Daily Safety Checks and settings may be managed from the Dashboard or Agent.

Server and Workstation Check Frequency

Daily Safety Check Frequency

As the name implies, the Daily Safety Checks run once per day with the run time defined in the Hour of day drop down box.

Configure the Daily Safety Checks to run after the server's daily scheduled tasks (i.e. backup, Anti-Virus update, etc) have completed.

Date/Time Column

Windows Monitoring Agents from version 10 run and upload Checks in batches, as such the timestamp reported in the Date/Time column of the Dashboard may differ between Checks running at the same frequency.

Dashboard Check configuration

Although the Windows Agent includes Check settings, we recommend configuring and running Checks from the Dashboard.
