Vscan | Configuration
The OPSWAT connector for NetApp ONTAP is configured through a config.ini file. This page documents the settings available in that file, grouped by section. If a setting is left empty or omitted, its default value is used (if there is one). If a setting contains a value outside its allowed range or of the wrong type, the connector will not start and will report the invalid setting.
Example
[MetaDefender Storage Security] section
Defines how the connector reaches the MetaDefender Storage Security instance.
Setting | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
IP | Text (IPv4 address) | 127.0.0.1 | IP address of the MetaDefender Storage Security instance. |
Port | Integer | 80 | Network port of the MetaDefender Storage Security instance. |
Apikey | Text | API key used to authenticate with MetaDefender Storage Security. | |
StorageUnits | Integer | 1 | Number of configured storage units |
[Storage Unit N] sections
One section per configured storage unit, numbered sequentially ( [Storage Unit 1], [Storage Unit 2], and so on). The number of these sections should match the StorageUnits value above. If the value of the StorageUnits variable is less than the number of Storage Unit sections in the file, only the first N storage units will be checked. If the value is greater, all storage units will be checked and the extra amount of the value will be silently ignored. If there is any storage unit section that is missing (e.g. StorageUnits=3, [Storage Unit 1] and [Storage Unit 3] are present but [Storage Unit 2] is missing), the connector will fail.
Setting | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
ClientId | Text | Identifier of the storage unit generated by MetaDefender Storage Security | |
SharePath | Text | Path of the share to protect as it is integrated in MetaDefender Storage Security |
[Settings] section
General connector behavior.
Setting | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
LogRetentionCountInDays | Integer (1-30) | 7 | Number of days log files are retained |
LogLevel | Text | Information | Logging verbosity. One of: Debug, Information, Warning, Error, Fatal |
FileProcessingTimeoutInSeconds | Integer | 3600 | Maximum time allowed to process a single file before it times out |
RpcLocalPipeHost | Text | 127.0.0.1 | Local host address used for the connector's internal communication |
ZoneIdentifierFiles | Integer (0-3) | 0 | Handling mode for Windows Zone.Identifier files (see below). |
ZoneIdentifierFiles values
Zone.Identifier files are small metadata streams Windows attaches to files downloaded from the internet. They hold no user content, so scanning them is usually unnecessary. This setting selects how the connector handles them; all other files always go through the normal scanning pipeline regardless of this value.
Value | Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
0 | Skip (default) | Zone.Identifier files are ignored, not scanned and no verdict is returned |
1 | Scan | Zone.Identifier files are sent to MetaDefender Storage Security and scanned like any other file |
2 | Allow | Zone.Identifier files are immediately allowed without scanning |
3 | Block | Zone.Identifier files are immediately blocked without scanning |
