Creating local mirror server

1. A designated host with NetBackup Malware Scanner must be installed.
2. Login with the same user credentials used to install the NetBackup Malware scanner and run the following command:

   cd $NB_MALWARE_SCANNER_PATH

   ./avupdate.bin --mirror --config=avupdate-savapilib-product.conf --install-dir=<update_path>

3. Publish the <update_path> over HTTP.

   For example, https://<local_mirror_server>/<update_path>.

   Note:

   Periodically run ./avupdate.bin --mirror command to keep the signature data up-to-date on the mirror server.

Using local mirror server during signature update

1. The update.sh script refers to avupdate-savapilib-product.conf file which is at the same location as that of update.sh, that is $NB_MALWARE_SCANNER_PATH.
2. Update the internet-srvs entry in .conf file to point to the URL served by the local mirror server mentioned above.

   ~/savapi-sdk-linux64/bin> cat avupdate-savapilib-product.conf
   #This configuration updates the entire SAVAPI Library (binaries, engine, signatures)
   #internet-srvs=https://oem.avira-update.com/update
   internet-srvs=https://<local_mirror_server>/<update_path>
   master-file=/idx/master.idx
   product-file=/idx/savapi4lib-linux64-en.info.gz
   install-dir=./
   temp-dir=./tmp
   check-product

3. In the update.sh file, comment and uncomment the sentences marked in bold:

   Old file:

   #!/usr/bin/env bash
    #
    # Copyright (c) Avira Operations GmbH
    #
    # VERSION=1.0.0.8
    # Description: Contains the basic update commands for SAVAPI Server and Library
    #
    #
    # SAVAPI Server update
    #
    # product update (all modules)
    ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapi-product.conf --check-product
    # engine update (engine binaries and virus definition modules)
    # ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapi-engine.conf --check-product
    #

    # engine update (engine binaries and virus definition modules)
    #./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapilib-engine.conf --check-product

   New file (After commenting and uncommenting the sentences in bold above):

   #!/usr/bin/env bash
    #
    # Copyright (c) Avira Operations GmbH
    #
    # VERSION=1.0.0.8
    # Description: Contains the basic update commands for SAVAPI Server and Library
    #
    #

    #

    #./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapi-product.conf --check-product
    # engine update (engine binaries and virus definition modules)
    # ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapi-engine.conf --check-product
    #
    # SAVAPI Library update
    #
    # product update (all modules)
    ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapilib-product.conf --check-product
    # engine update (engine binaries and virus definition modules)
    #./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapilib-engine.conf --check-product

4. Run the update.sh script to ensure that the update is working correctly.

   The avupdate.log file displays the following entries:

Manually updating local mirror server during no internet connectivity

1. On system with internet connectivity, download the signature database.

   Note:

   The NBAntiMalwareClient must be installed on the system with internet connectivity.

   ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapilib-product.conf --mirror --install-dir=<mirror_dir>

2. Copy the contents of <mirror_dir> from above to the mirror server:

   ./avupdate.bin --config=avupdate-savapilib-product.conf --internet-srvs=<local_copy_of_mirror_dir>
