Oh I agree with you there, mostly SAV managed by a workstation set up as
the admin server, and we use multi layer AV, but not on the exchange
servers, Exchange....nothing else.

I don't worry about my Exchange server becoming infected, I worry about
clients being infected via their mailbox. And many people prefer to
implement a multi-layer AV strategy, which includes scanning mail as it
reaches the mailbox store in addition to blocking malicious mail at the
gateway, because if you rely on only one source of protection, you're
putting a lot of trust in that single point of failure.

Well I, and no doubt many others, would stay away from them. In fact I
do not install any AV products on Exchange servers. Servers are servers,
and therefore should not be at risk from mail borne viruses. And worms
should be caught at the gateway/firewall.

Steve, some AV software makers require the file-level portion of their
product be installed to get the Exchange scanning as well. So, for some
of us, correctly configuring the file-level scanning is the only option.

You say your not scanning inetpub...what about thee exchange directory.
File level AV should NOT be installed on an Exchange server.

http://www.MSExchange.org/

On Saturday morning (first day of week here) the database is dismounted,
the following are the error messages, E002 is missing, and I search the
whole machine for it and its not there, virus scanner is setup
correctly, it doesn't scan inetpub and all storage drives and log
drives, and log file extensions, etc... all the folders and extensions
to exclude recommended by Microsoft, its the same database always (there
are multiple mailbox stores and storage groups), what could else be the
problem?
Of course it starts with missing the E002 and goes all the way to
dismounting the database.
What can I do to explain and workaround this?

thank you
