Exclude Directory Paths for an SMB Share
You can exclude directory paths for a specic SMB share when you create an SMB share or when you subsequently modify the NAS
antivirus settings for an SMB share.
1. Click NAS, expand NAS Clusters and Local Containers, and then select the NAS container name.
2. Click the SMB Shares tab.
3. Select a share and click Modify SMB Shares.
4. Click the General tab to determine the root of the mapped share.
5. Click the Antivirus Settings tab.
6. In Directory paths to exclude, click Add to open the Add List Item dialog box.
7. Type a folder path that is based on the root of the mapped share.
NOTE: In some cases, such as with .zip les and other archives, the antivirus server's settings override the NAS
antivirus threat policies. Infected les are processed according to the antivirus server's conguration. Dell
recommends coordinating the antivirus server's own policies with those of the NAS antivirus server to ensure that
the system takes consistent action when it nds infected les.
