	Methods how to install Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers Enterprise Edition

The article lists options which can be used when installing 

• anti-virus component of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers Enterprise Edition. This component can be installed by running either the file \server\kavws.msi or \server\setup.exe from the product distributive 

• Anti-Virus management means. These means can be installed by running either the file \client\kavwstools.msi or \client\setup.exe from the product distributive

The name of the parameter used in the interface by local installation is given in brackets. 0 corresponds to a disabled option, 1 – to the enabled one.

PRESCAN=<value> - scans active processes and boot sectors of local discs before the Anti-Virus installation (Scan computer for viruses)

0 – do not scan before the installation (by default)

1 – scan computer before the installation

It is recommended to perform this scan before the installation, as a malicious code in these computer areas can prevent the Anti-Virus from installation; scan process may take several minutes. If any infected or suspicious processes are detected during the scan, these processes will be deleted from the computer RAM (executable files of the processes are not deleted). In this case information about the running applications might be lost. That it is why it is recommended to close all running applications before the installation.

INSTALLDIR=<full_path_to_the_folder> - the setup folder of the Anti-Virus and/or Administration Tools

By default, the Anti-Virus is installed in the folder %Program Files%\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Anti-Virus For Windows Servers Enterprise Edition\, and the Administration Tools – in the folder %Program Files%\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Anti-Virus For Windows Servers Enterprise Edition Admins Tools\

RUNRTP=<value> - starts real-time file protection and scan scripts when the Anti-Virus installation is over (Automatically enable real-time protection)

0 – do not start

1 – start (by default).

In order the real-time protection task would start automatically after the Anti-Virus installation the Anti-Virus must be installed with a license key!

ADDMSEXCLUSION=<value> - excludes from scan in the real-time file protection task (and beginning from build 6.0.1.511 – in the on-demand scan tasks, excluding the tasks Scan Quarantined Objects and Verify application modules integrity) some objects, recommended by the Microsoft company (Consider Microsoft recommendations)

0 – do not consider the exclusions

1 – consider the exclusions (by default). The objects will be added to the exclusion list of the real-time protection.

Some programs on the server may run unstable when anti-virus applications intercept or change files to which the programs address. To such programs the Microsoft Corporation refer, for example, some applications of these domain controllers. Microsoft recommends excluding files of these applications from the real-time protection as non-infectable files. You can see the list of such files in the article KB822158 in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

RADMINEXCLUSION=<value> - excluding from scan in the tasks of real-time protection and on-demand scan objects in which the Anti-Virus detected threats corresponding to the mask not-a-virus:RemoteAdmin* (Add to threat exclusions list by not-a-virus:RemoteAdmin* mask).

0 – do not add such exclusion to the program (by default). I.e. if an object which contains the threat not-a-virus:RemoteAdmin* is detected the Anti-Virus will apply to it an action according to the program’s settings (up to the deletion of the object).

1 - add to exclusion threats by mask not-a-virus:RemoteAdmin*. And when such objects are detected the Anti-Virus will not apply any actions to them, i.e. will skip them.

LICENSEKEYPATH=<name_of_a_key-file_and_a_full_path_to_it> - full path to a license key-file (License key)

CONFIGPATH=<name_of_configuration_file_and_full_path_to_it> - the full path to xml-file with the settings, created on any version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers Enterprise Edition (Configuration file). If you do not define the value, the Anti-Virus will start functioning with the default settings after installation.

The Anti-Virus does not import passwords from configuration files, for example, passwords of accounts to start the tasks or passwords to connect with the proxy-server. Once the settings are imported you should enter all passwords manually.

ADDWFEXCLUSION=<value> -allows network connections for Kaspersky Anti-Virus console which is installed on Microsoft Windows XP SP2 or Microsoft Windows Vista (Allow remote access).

0 – does not allow connections.

1 – allows connections.

You can find more detailed information about advanced configuration to manage the server part of Kaspersky Anti-Virus remotely via its Console in KB1820.

ADDLOCAL=<value> - component-wise application installation. Several values of a parameter can be listed through a comma without gaps.

You can install either sets of component or individual Anti-Virus components. In the list below the codes of the component sets are given. Codes of separate/individual components are described in each set.
