Configuring quarantine management

Configuring quarantine management

You can configure EMS to delete quarantine records after a configured number of days.

You cannot directly delete quarantined files from endpoints from the EMS GUI. To delete quarantined files from an endpoint after a specified duration, configure the <cullage> XML option on the endpoint's assigned profile.

To configure quarantine management:
  1. Go to Quarantine Management > Files.
  2. Click the Quarantine Management Settings icon on the toolbar.
  3. Enter the number of days after which to delete quarantine records from EMS. EMS determines the age of the quarantined file as when its status was last updated. For example, if you configure the duration as 180 days, EMS deletes the quarantine record 180 days after the file was last updated.
