Nail,

We have two F760 filers running CIFS only. We have about 3000-4000 client connecting to the filers from a number of sites. We are presently using McAfee Virus Scan 4.3.0 to scan both filers. We have set-up several high spec workstation each sweeping a section of the filers.

We use snap mirror for disaster Recovery so have a combined disk capacity of about 1.1TB. The Virus scanning works pretty well but we are kind of unhappy at losing the on access scanning functions.

Just curious if anyone is running a virus scanner against filers for CIFS?
