Displaying the Pattern File Update Failure Warning

Set whether to display a warning message on the screen when the pattern file update fails.

Select [Security] - [Virus scan settings] - [Version Information] - [Alert settings] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and set [Update failure of pattern file] to ON (default: ON).

Tips

• If the pattern file update fails, a warning message will remain displayed on the [Information] screen. For details on how to cancel the warning, refer to When a Message Indicating That the Update of the Virus Scan Pattern File Has Failed Is Displayed.
• You can use E-mail or the SNMP's TRAP function to notify that the pattern file update has failed, regardless of the setting of whether or not the warning message is displayed.
  Select [Maintenance] - [Status Notification Setting] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), select the [Update failure of virus scan pattern file] check box as a warning to notify.
  For details on how to notify by E-mail, refer to Notifying a Warning Occurrence or Consumables Replacement Period by E-mail.
  For details on how to notify with the TRAP function of SNMP, refer to Managing the Machine via SNMP.
