The VirusBuster Task Manager Component is responsible for managing the operation of those system procedures that are established as tasks of a specified component. At this moment there are 2 such components, the VirusBuster Install Copier Component and the VirusBuster Scheduled Scan Component.
Tasks are characterized by the following:
task name that identifies the procedure - this must be unique within the component
task description - brief specification of the task;
task state - can be running, stopped, paused or suspended;
start parameters of the task
Tasks can be started by the following ways:
manually (from the VirusBuster Task Manager General Settings window);
automatically (upon system startup - once a day or each time);
scheduled start.
Scheduled starts can be configured to start:
start on a given day and time
start each x minutes;
start each x hours;
start each x days;
start each x weeks;
start each x months;
start each x years;
where x can be an arbitrary number.
Except for the first type for the rest types the time of the first start can be specified along with the expiry date of the task, the deadline after what the task will not be started any more.
