ExePath

{path to file}

Component executable path.

Default value: <opt_dir>/bin/drweb-update.

RunAsUser

{UID | user name}

The parameter determines as which user the component runs. Either the numerical UID of the user or the user name (login) can be specified. If the user name consists of numbers (i.e. similar to a numerical UID), it must be specified with the “name:” prefix, for example: RunAsUser = name:123456.

When the user name is not specified, the component terminates with an error at startup.

UpdateInterval

{time interval}

Default value: 30m

RetryInterval

{time interval}

Frequency of repeated attempts to perform an update using the update servers if the previous attempt failed.

Allowed values: from 1 minute (1m) to 30 minutes (30m) inclusive.

Default value: 3m

MaxRetries

{integer}

Number of repeated attempts to perform an update using Dr.Web update servers (the frequency is specified in the RetryInterval parameter) if the previous attempt failed.

If the value is set to 0, repeated attempts are not made (the next update will be performed after the time period specified in the UpdateInterval parameter).

Default value: 3

Proxy

{connection string}

Stores the parameters for connecting to a proxy server that is used by the updater component (Dr.Web Updater) when it is connecting to Dr.Web updates servers (for example, if direct connections to external servers are prohibited by your network security policies).

If the parameter value is not specified, the proxy server is not used.

Allowed values:

<connection string>—proxy server connection string. The string has the following format (URL):

[<protocol>://][<user>:<password>@]<host>:<port>

where:

•<protocol> is the utilized protocol type (in the current version, only http is available);

•<user> is the user name to connect to the proxy server;

•<password> is the password to connect to the proxy server;

•<host> is the host address of the proxy (IP address or domain name, i.e. FQDN);

•<port> is the port to be used.

The URL parts <protocol> and <user>:<password> may be absent. The proxy server address <host>:<port> is mandatory.

If the user name or password contain characters @, % or :, these characters must be replaced with the corresponding HEX codes: %40, %25 and %3A, respectively.

Examples:

1.In the configuration file:

•Connection to a the proxy server hosted at proxyhost.company.org using port 123:

Proxy = proxyhost.company.org:123

•Connection to the proxy server hosted at 10.26.127.0 using port 3336 via HTTP protocol as the legaluser user with the passw password:

Proxy = http://legaluser:passw@10.26.127.0:3336

•Connection to the proxy server hosted at 10.26.127.0 using port 3336 as the user@company.com user with the passw%123 password:

Proxy = user%40company.com:passw%25123%3A@10.26.127.0:3336

2.Setting the same values using the drweb-ctl cfset command:

Default value: (not specified)

Accepts a list of values. The values in the list must be comma-separated (with each value put in quotation marks). The parameter can be specified more than once in the section (in this case, all its values are combined into one list).

Example: Add the 123.vdb file and the 456.dws directory to the list.

1.Adding values to the configuration file.

•Two values per string:

•Two strings (one value per string):

2.Adding values with the drweb-ctl cfset command:

Default value: drweb32.lst

NetworkTimeout

{time interval}

A time-out period imposed on the network-related operations of the updater component while downloading updates from Dr.Web update servers.

This parameter is used when a connection is temporarily lost: if the connection is established again before the time-out expires, the interrupted updating process will be continued.

Minimal value: 5s.

Default value: 60s
