Creating an NTFS metafile retrieval task

You can get NTFS metafiles from selected Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows hosts. To do so, you must create an NTFS metafile retrieval task.

To create an NTFS metafile retrieval task:

  1. Select the Tasks section in the program web interface window.

    This opens the task table.

  2. Click the Add button and select NTFS metafiles in the Get data drop-down list.

    This opens the task creation window.

  3. Configure the following settings:
    1. Metafiles is the list of metafiles that you can get using the task. Select the relevant metafile by selecting the corresponding check box.

      You can select multiple metafiles.

    2. Volume is the name of the disk from which you want to get metafiles.

      By default, the system disk is specified. You can enter the path to a different disk in the <drive letter>:format.

    3. Description—Task description. This field is optional.
    4. Hostis the name or IP address of the host to which you want to assign the task.

      You can specify only one host.

      The NTFS metafile retrieval task can only be assigned to hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows program version 3.13 or later.

  4. Click Add.

The NTFS metafile creation task is created. The task runs automatically after it is created.

When the task finishes, the program places a ZIP archive containing the selected metafiles in Storage. You can download the archive to your local computer.

If the task results in an error, the archive file contains the description of the error.

If you are using the

distributed solution
and
multitenancy mode
, the archive is placed in Storage of the Central Node server to which the host specified in the Host field is connected.

If downloading selected metafiles exhausts Storage capacity, objects in Storage will be rotated. If a metafile is larger than total Storage capacity, it is not downloaded

Users with the Security auditor role cannot create this task. Users with the Security officer role do not have access to tasks.
