Precautionary steps while installing anti virus on inSync Server
Precautionary steps while installing anti virus on inSync Server
Updated over a week ago

Summary

It is very important to exclude all the inSync directories from live anti-virus scan/on access scan. Most anti-virus applications may lock the frequently accessed files to scan them, which might cause database corruption.

When data is uploaded to data folder, references for actual data are stored under database files. If anti-virus locks database files, inSync server may not be able to update database files due to which some references might get lost. Hence it is recommended to exclude following directories & processes from anti-virus scan:
