Settings in the ScanServer.conf file
The ScanServer.conf file contains the SVM operation settings. The file is located on the SVM in the /etc/opt/kaspersky/la/ directory.
Root account permissions are required to view and modify the file.
This section describes the settings in the ScanServer.conf file that allow you to configure logging of the SVM traces and dumps, usage of the SVM system log, and agree to the terms of the End User License Agreement. Information about other settings, if necessary, can be obtained from the Technical Support.
Unassisted modification of the Kaspersky Security operation settings in the ways not described in the Kaspersky Security help or in the recommendations from the Technical Support specialists can lead to slowdowns and malfunctions of the operating system, decrease of the virtual machine protection level, as well as to a violation of the availability and integrity of the processed information.
General settings trace_level = 0 Determines the trace level for all SVM trace files except the SnmpTool.log file. Possible values: After changing the trace level, restart the scanserver service by running the following command: trace_protected_data Writing potentially personal data (for example, passwords) to trace files. Possible values: trace_file = /var/log/kaspersky/la/ScanServer.log The name of the Protection Server trace file. The date is appended to the file name, for example, ScanServer.2020-11-19T130126.log. The rotation settings are controlled by the scanserver service. The trace file is used if system log usage is disabled (see section [syslog]). trace_format = %Y-%m-%dT%X %I %p: The format for logging the lines in the Protection Server trace file (ScanServer.log). Qualifiers: %Y = year, %m = month, %d = day, %H = hour, %M = minute, %S = second, %i = millisecond, %p = trace level, %N = device name, %P = process identifier (PID), %I = thread ID, %C = component ID, %D = component instance ID, %X = time. The trace file is used if system log usage is disabled (see section [syslog]). accept_eula_and_privacypolicy = yes|no Accept or decline the terms of Kaspersky Security End User License Agreement between you and Kaspersky and the Privacy Policy that describes processing and transmission of data. Possible values: yes – accept the terms of the End User License Agreement and the Privacy Policy, no – do not accept the terms of the End User License Agreement and the Privacy Policy. You must accept the terms of the End User License Agreement and the Privacy Policy for the proper SVM operation. By setting this parameter to 'yes', you confirm the following: The text of the End User License Agreement and Privacy Policy is included in the Kaspersky Security distribution kit.systemctl reload la-scanserver
[rotation_settings] section This section contains processing and rotation settings for the Protection Server trace file (ScanServer.log). period = 3 File rotation frequency. Possible values: 1 – monthly, 2 – weekly, 3 – daily, 4 – hourly. max_file_size = 1073741824 The maximum trace file size in bytes. When reached, rotation is performed. Possible values: 0 – unlimited, 1073741824 – 1 GB. max_file_count = 15 The maximum number of the trace files. When the limit is reached, old files are deleted. Possible values: number or 0 – unlimited. new_file_on_start = 1 Logging to a new file or to the last available trace file when Protection Server starts. Possible values: 1 – write to a new file, 0 – write to the last created file.
[extra_tracing] section enabled = 1 Logging general information to trace files every time the trace level is changed (information about the license, KSN usage, and the anti-virus databases used). Possible values: 0 – disabled, 1 – enabled.
[syslog] section This section contains the system log usage settings. enabled = 0 System log usage. Possible values: 1 – enable, 0 – disable. If the system log usage is disabled, data is logged to the Protection Server trace file. The file name is specified by the trace_file setting (see the General settings section). program_name = ScanServer System log name. facility = 176 System log category (LOG_LOCAL6 = 176). format = %I %p: Syslog entry format: %Y = year, %m = month, %d = day, %H = hour, %M = minute, %S = second, %i = millisecond, %p = trace level, %N = device name, %P = process identifier (PID), %I = thread ID, %C = component ID, %D = component instance ID, %X = time.
[dumps] section This section contains the settings of the Protection Server dump files. dir = /var/opt/kaspersky/la/dumps Directory for logging dumps. schema = ScanServer_%d_%p_%n.dmp Name configuration: max = 10 The maximum number of dumps in the repository. freeMiB = 1024 The minimum amount of free disk space required to write the dump (in MB).
