AVGADMIN Configuration 

11.1 AVGADMIN Periodical Tasks 

Periodical tasks are scheduled actions which run repeatedly in time periods defined by the network 

administrator. The dialog window for periodical tasks editing can be accessed from the AVGADMIN main 

menu selecting the Settings/Periodical tasks option: 

In this dialog window you can specify the time interval for performing the following tasks: 

Refresh   In the specified time period AVGADMIN refreshes the information displayed in the 

central table.  

New infections   Every workstation sends its test results to the AVG DataCenter. AVGADMIN 

regularly checks the test results table, and every new virus appearance is immediately reported in 

the status window. 

License checking   AVGADMIN goes through all AVG Anti Virus license numbers used on 

separate workstation's and reports any discrepancy with the license policy. The report on a 

possibly discovered problem is displayed to the network administrator via the status window 

entry.  

11.2 AVG DataCenter Update 

It may happen that AVGADMIN asks for the database update. This situation occurs if you install a newer 

AVGADMIN version supporting new functions, or if the data processing changed. Usually the 

administrator is allowed to keep the database in its older format. However, we recommend transferring 

the database to the new format as soon as possible so that you can fully use all functions and features of 

the new AVGADMIN version.  

From time to time, the AVG DataCenter structure changes significantly; then it is necessary to update 

AVG DataCenter before using the new AVGADMIN version in order to secure the correct performance. 

In that case, AVGADMIN will inform the user that it is not possible to continue working until the AVG 

DataCenter updates.
