Configuring Trend Micro Malware Scanner

NetBackup 11.0 and later provides support for malware scanning using the Trend Micro Malware Scanner.

Note:

The Trend Micro Malware Scanner is currently only supported for Linux.

To configure Trend Micro Malware Scanner for Linux

Install Trend Micro Deep Security Manager and Agent from Trend Business Software Download Center.
Note the following:
- Deep Security Manager can be installed on another setup other than the scan host.
- Deep Security Agent must be installed on the scan host.
  The minimum required version of Deep Security Agent is 20.0.1-690.
The Trend Micro Malware Scanner supports malware scanning only through the root user. This requirement is due to the following support of the dsa_scan command in Trend Micro:
If you have root access rights on Linux, you can use the dsa_scan command to run a scan task with specified files or directories, including the subdirectories.
Set the environment variable TREND_MICRO_AGENT_PATH in .bashrc file as follows:
For example: export TREND_MICRO_AGENT_PATH=/opt/ds_agent
Note:
If you use the NetBackup client as the scan host, then it is recommended to add the same entry in /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf configuration file.
For example, TREND_MICRO_AGENT_PATH=/opt/ds_agent
Run the following command on the command prompt and verify the output:
/opt/ds_agent/dsa_scan --action pass --target <path to scan>
