Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Quick Start Guide

Overview
ServerProtect for NetApp Filers scans viruses using "on-access" mode, which takes
place on a Scan Server. In turn, the Information Server manages the Scan Servers.

FIGURE 1.

ServerProtect for NetApp Filers product architecture

When a ServerProtect for NetApp Filers user tries to access a file or store a new file
in a NetApp Filer, the NetApp Filer performs a virus check. If the filename extension
matches the file scanning criteria (For example, an ".EXE" or a ".VBS" file), the
NetApp Filer sends a manual scan request (Scan Now) to the Scan Server(s). The
Scan Server then passes back the scan result to the NetApp Filer and according to the
scan result, the user is either allowed to open/save the file or is denied access to the
file (to set NetApp Filer file scanning criteria, refer to your NetApp Filer
documentation).
Note:

Since only specific file types contain viruses, establishing the right file scanning
criteria can help optimize Scan Server performance, reduce bandwidth usage, and
minimize scanning time. To learn how ServerProtect for NetApp Filers can
efficiently and safely scan files, see IntelliScan in chapter 1 of the ServerProtect
for Windows Getting Started Guide.

If a file contains a virus, ServerProtect for NetApp Filers performs a designated


action. Refer to Scanning Viruses in chapter 3 of the ServerProtect for Windows
Getting Started Guide for additional information about scan actions. For example, if

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

the file is cleanable and ServerProtect for NetApp Filers is configured to perform a
Clean action the following occurs:
1.

The Scan Server cleans the file and informs the NetApp Filer that the file is no
longer infected.

2.

The NetApp Filer allows its client to access the cleaned file and replaces the
original file with the cleaned one.

Note:

The NetApp Filer "trusts" registered Scan Servers, so if a Scan Server also
functions as a Normal Server (as a file or data server) and happens to send a file to
the NetApp Filer, the latter will not request the file be scanned. To protect both the
NetApp Filer, and the Normal Server, set the ServerProtect Real-time Scan to
"Incoming & outgoing". See To set Real-time Scan to Incoming & outgoing,
do the following: on page 21.

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

ServerProtect for Windows architecture review


As previously mentioned, ServerProtect for NetApp Filers is an enhanced version of
ServerProtect for Windows. To understand the ServerProtect for NetApp Filers
enhancements, it is useful to review the architecture of ServerProtect for Windows.
ServerProtect for Microsoft Windows protects networks through a three-tier
architecture: the Management Console, the Information Server, and the Normal
Server. You can use the Management Console to configure the Information Server
(IS), which lets you control the Normal Servers managed by the IS.
The three components are independent from each other, yet you can install each on
one machine, on separate machines, or in a combination (for example, you can install
the Management Console on one machine, and you can install the Information Server
and the Normal Server together on a separate machine).
For additional information on ServerProtect architecture, refer to ServerProtect
Architecture in chapter 1 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started Guide.
Management Console: this portable console gives you centralized control of
multiple network servers and domains. The Management Console lets you
simultaneously configure servers in the same IS domain and generate integrated virus
incident reports for all servers. The ServerProtect domain browser tree shows all the
ServerProtect servers along with the status of each server. Status information
includes the version of the virus pattern, scan engine, and program file; the type and
version of operating system; the direction of real-time scanning, and so on.
For additional information on the Management Console, refer to ServerProtect
Architecture in chapter 1 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started Guide.
Information Server: a communications hub
for coordinating antivirus defense activities
within its domains. An Information Server (IS)
provides a single point of contact for assigned
Normal Servers and Scan Servers. This saves
time because the Information Server makes it
unnecessary to directly communicate with each
individual Normal Server.

What are ServerProtect domains?


In ServerProtect, domains are virtual
groupings of Normal Servers that
simplify the identification and
management of Normal Servers. You
can create, rename, or delete
domains according to your network
needs (refer to Managing
ServerProtect Domains in chapter 3
of the ServerProtect for Windows
Getting Started Guide.)

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Quick Start Guide

If there is a large number of Normal Servers in a domain, you can add more
Information Servers and divide the number of Normal Servers among them. For
example, if a domain has 100 Normal Servers assigned to one IS, you can share the
workload among two Information Servers by adding another IS and assigning 50
Normal Servers to each IS. The IS also collects log files.
For additional Information Server information, refer to ServerProtect Architecture in
chapter 1 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started Guide.
Note:

In addition to managing Scan Servers, the ServerProtect for NetApp Filers


Information Server can also manage ServerProtect for Windows Normal Servers.

Normal Server (Scan Server): the first line of defense in the ServerProtect
architecture and where all the scanning takes place. The Normal Servers are the
machines in the organization, which typically act as file servers, data servers, etc.
Normal Servers can scan both manually and in real time.
For more Normal Server information, refer to ServerProtect Architecture in chapter 1
of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started Guide.
Note:

In ServerProtect for NetApp Filers, Normal Servers are referred to as "Scan


Servers". Scan Servers scan files NetApp Filer clients try to access or modify in
the NetApp Filer.

Table 1. ServerProtect Version Comparison

Enabling Trend Micro update server


A virus scanner must have the latest updates in order to be effective. You can
configure ServerProtect for NetApp Filers to automatically download the newest
virus patterns and scan engine updates. To minimize download times and preserve
network bandwidth, Trend Micro update server distributes available updates to the
designated servers via an incremental update mechanism. This ensures ServerProtect
for NetApp Filers downloads only the latest virus signatures since the last version.
For detailed information about Trend Micro update server, refer to Configuring
Updates in chapter 3 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started Guide.

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Quick Start Guide

Whats new in ServerProtect for NetApp Filers?


This section includes the new features in this version of ServerProtect for NetApp
Filers.

Multi-filer support
One Scan Server can scan multiple NetApp Filers at the same time. Now, network
administrators can dedicate one physical server to protect several NetApp Filers, this
can contribute to reduce the total cost of ownership. See Adding more NetApp Filers
to a Scan Server on page 17 for additional information.

User notification upon client infection


ServerProtect for NetApp Filers can get the IP address and host name of a client
causing an infection, and then alert both the user and the network administrator. This
function is only available if using Data ONTAP version 6.4 or later. See Notifying
NetApp Filer clients upon infection on page 23 for additional information.

NetApp Filer status available through the Management


Console
Network administrators can view if a registered NetApp Filer is online or offline
from the Management Console. See Viewing the status of a NetApp Filer on page 24
for additional information.

Conveniently update NetApp Filer logon information


Network administrators can update the logon information for several NetApp Filers
simultaneously. See Updating NetApp Filer information on page 20 for additional
information.

Trend Micro Control Manager agent compatibility


ServerProtect for NetApp Filers is compatible with Trend Micro Control Manager
agent for ServerProtect.

10

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

NetApp Filer notification of new updates


When new update components (scan engine and pattern) are downloaded to a Scan
Server, the Scan Server will notify NetApp Filers to flush the cache of previously
scanned files. This ensures that NetApp Filers continuously utilize the most current
protection. Each NetApp Filer will then begin rebuilding the cache of previously
scanned files until a new update arrives from Trend Micro update server. See
Notifying NetApp Filers of new update components on page 26 for additional
information.

NetApp Filer RPC status notification


ServerProtect for NetApp Filers monitors the RPC connection with each NetApp
Filer. If the RPC connection between a NetApp Filer and the Scan Server is inactive,
the Scan Server will attempt to reconnect to the NetApp Filer.
Upon configuration, ServerProtect for NetApp will notify network administrators
whenever a connection to a NetApp Filer succeeds or fails. You can also select the
type of notification you wish to receive. This feature can help in troubleshooting. See
Configuring NetApp Filer RPC connection status notifications on page 25 for
additional information.

Installing ServerProtect for NetApp Filers


Before installing ServerProtect for NetApp Filers, perform the following tasks.

Verify that vscan is enabled. See Verifying vscan is enabled on page 12

Using multiple Scan Servers for a single NetApp Filer


ServerProtect for NetApp Filers provides a fully scalable enterprise antivirus solution
for organizations using NetApp Filers.

16

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

If there is a large volume of incoming files to the NetApp Filer, adding and
registering multiple Scan Servers with the NetApp Filer evenly distributes the
workload among the registered Scan Servers.
NetApp Filers send files to Scan Servers in "round-robin" fashion. For example, if
you have three Scan Servers and the NetApp Filer has four incoming files, the first
Scan Server scans the first file, the second Scan Server scans the second file, the third
Scan Server scans the third file, the first Scan Server scans the fourth file, and so on.
This even distribution of the workload reduces the loading of Scan Servers (load
balancing). For more information on load balancing, refer to your NetApp Filer
documentation.
The procedure for adding additional Scan Servers to a NetApp Filer is identical to the
procedure for adding Normal Servers in ServerProtect for Windows (refer to
Installing a Normal Server in chapter 2 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting
Started Guide).
To confirm that multiple Scan Servers are working for a single NetApp Filer:

1.

Open the command prompt for the NetApp Filer that you want to verify.

2.

At the command prompt, type:


netapp> vscan scanners
The NetApp Filer displays a list of Scan Servers by IP address and NetBIOS
name.

Adding more NetApp Filers to a Scan Server


A Scan Server can protect multiple NetApp Filers at the same time. Use the
ServerProtect Management Console to conveniently add NetApp Filers to a Scan
Server. You can also assign several Scan Servers to individual NetApp Filers for load
balancing. See Using multiple Scan Servers for a single NetApp Filer on page 16.
You need the following to add a NetApp Filer in ServerProtect for NetApp Filers:

An account on the NetApp Filer with backup operator privileges or above

Using Scan Servers as Normal Servers


Although the ideal configuration is to have a machine act primarily as a Scan Server
to protect the NetApp Filer, there may be situations where a Scan Server must also
serve as an organizations Normal Server (file server, data server, etc.).
If you choose to use a Scan Server as a Normal Server, the Normal Servers
Real-time Scan function is enabled by default.
Real-time Scan has the following options:

incoming (default)

outgoing

incoming & outgoing

Note:

For the highest level of security set Real-time Scan to Incoming & outgoing.
However, if the computer only performs as a Scan Server, you can use the default
setting (Incoming).

To set Real-time Scan to Incoming & outgoing, do the following:

1.

Select either the Information Server, domain, or a Normal Server (Scan Server)
on the domain browser tree.

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

Scanning viruses
A Scan Server receives a scan request from the NetApp Filer when a user tries to
open a file that matches the file scanning criteria (to set file scanning criteria, refer to
your NetApp Filer documentation). The Scan Server then scans the file using the
ServerProtect manual scan function. For more information about manual scans, refer
to Using Scan Now in chapter 3 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting Started
When a Scan Server detects a virus, it performs one of the following actions,
depending on what you have previously configured:

Bypass/Ignore- Skips over the file without taking any corrective action in a
manual scan

Delete: Deletes the infected file

Rename: Changes the name of the infected file by modifying the file extension
to ".VIR"

Quarantine (Move): Moves the infected file to a designated folder

Clean: Attempts to clean the virus code from the file

For more information about these actions and configuring actions, refer to Defining
Actions Against Viruses in chapter 3 of the ServerProtect for Windows Getting
Started Guide.
Note:

By default, NetApp Filers do not include ".ZIP" in the set of file extensions to be
scanned. To enable scanning for ".ZIP" and other file types, see To add any file

extension into the NetApp Filers extension table, type the following at the
NetApp Filer command prompt: on page 32. This also applies to other types of

compressed files.

Notifying NetApp Filer clients upon infection

Notifying NetApp Filers of new update components


When update downloads new components (scan engine and pattern) to the Scan
Server, the Scan Servers will notify NetApp Filers to flush the cache of previously
scanned files. This ensures that all files are scanned with the latest virus pattern. Each
NetApp Filer will then begin rebuilding the cache of previously scanned files until a
new update arrives from the update server.

Troubleshooting ServerProtect for NetApp


Filers
This section contains troubleshooting information and may assist you in finding a
solution to frequently asked questions.

Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers do not recognize


ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Scan Servers
Description:
After a power cycle on the Network Appliance Filer, the ServerProtect for Network
Appliance Filers Scan Server returned Event 213:
Cannot add a connection to Filer. The network path was not found.
Running the "vscan scanners" command on the NetApp filer returns the
following message:
No virus scanners are registered with the filer.

The ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Scan Servers still manage to obtain
pattern updates from Trend update servers.
Solution:
Confirm the following conditions exist:

30

Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is enabled on the servers

Vscan is turned "On" on the NetApp Filer

The Common Internet File System (CIFS) default share (C$) still exists

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

After confirming these conditions, do the following:


1.

Right-click a Scan Server, and then select Filer List on the domain browser tree.
The Filer List screen appears.

2.

Select one or more NetApp Filers from the list. To multi-select several NetApp
Filers, press the CTRL key as you select.

3.

Click Logon Info. The Logon Information screen appears.

4.

Verify the information is correct. Otherwise, reenter it.

5.

Click OK.

After completing these steps, repeat the registration of the Scan Server in the NetApp
Filer. If the password for the administrator account was recently changed, the
changes may not take effect until a start up/power-cycle of the NetApp Filer occurs.

The Scan Server completed scan on a file but original


request was not found when scanning large files on the
NetApp Filer
Description:
When scanning large files on the Filer in ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers,
the following message appears:
[Server] completed scan on [FileName] but original request was
not found.

Solution:
This situation occurs because the scan period encountered a time out due to the large
size of the file. Resolve this issue by extending the Time Out period between the Filer
and the Scan Server.
To extend the Time Out period between the Filer and the Scan Server, perform
the following steps on the Scan Server:

1.

Run Regedit.

2.

Browse to the following key:


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TrendMicro\ServerProtect\CurrentVer
sion\Engine\Filers

31

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers Quick Start Guide

3.

Set the Value Data to the desired TimeOut period in the ScanFilerTimeOut
DWORD.
The unit of ScanFilerTimeOut is in seconds; this is the timeout value for the Scan
Server to scan a file.
Note:

Default timeout period for ServerProtect is 24 seconds.

To disable this warning, add the ScanTimeOutLog DWORD Value to the following
location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TrendMicro\ServerProtect\CurrentVersion
\Engine\Filers

Possible values for ScanTimeOutLog:


1 - Enable logging of files not scanned due to time out
0 - Disable logging of files not scanned due to time out

Configuring the ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers


to scan all file types
Description:
How to configure ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers to scan all file types?
Solution:
To scan all files placed on the NetApp Filer, change the extension table of the
NetApp Filer so it supports all file extensions.
To make sure the extension table of the NetApp Filer supports all file
extensions, type the following at the NetApp Filer command prompt:
filer> vscan extensions add ???

The above command will make the filer scan all file types regardless of their
extension. The NetApp Filer wild card is a question mark (?) and not an asterisk (*).
To add any file extension into the NetApp Filers extension table, type the
following at the NetApp Filer command prompt:
filer> vscan extensions add vbs

32

Trend Micro ServerProtect for Network Appliance (NetApp) Filers

The above command will make the NetApp Filer scan file with a ".VBS" extension.
You can replace vbs with any three-letter file extension.
Scanning all files can degrade the NetApp Filers performance and slow down virus
scanning. It is recommended to scan files that are prone to viruses.

Testing your installation


The European Institute of Computer Antivirus Research (EICAR), in cooperation
with antivirus vendors, has developed a test file to check if your system can detect
viruses.
The file is not an actual virus; it will cause no harm and it will not replicate. Rather, it
is a specially created file whose "signature" has been included in the Trend Micro
virus pattern. As a result, Trend Micro scan engine will detect it.
To test your installation do the following:

1.

Download this file to the NetApp Filer from the Trend Micro Web site at:
www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/testfiles/index.htm

2.

Open or copy the test file from a NetApp Filer client. If the installation was
successful, the Scan Server will detect it and will perform the scan action
configured under Scan Now. The default scan action is Clean.
For more information about these actions and configuring actions, refer to
Defining Actions Against Viruses in chapter 3 of the ServerProtect for Windows
Getting Started Guide.

WARNING! To successfully detect the EICAR test file, the extension table of the NetApp
Filer should support the ".HTM" file type. See Configuring the
ServerProtect for Network Appliance Filers to scan all file types on
page 32.
