McAfee Security for Microsoft Exchange 8.6.0
Manage quarantined data
Based on your requirement, decide whether to use the local database or a dedicated quarantine management server known as McAfee Quarantine Manager, to quarantine detected items.
By default, detected items are quarantined locally to a PostgreSQL database installed by MSME.
Configure quarantine location
Based on the Detected Items configuration settings, you can choose to quarantine detected items in the local database or use McAfee's quarantine management software, widely known as McAfee Quarantine Manager to quarantine detected items on a separate server.
For managed systems, if you select MQM server to quarantine the detected items, make sure that the configuration is enforced only to the systems you intended. Otherwise, the configuration is applied to all MSME servers in the System Tree. |
From the product's user interface, click
and select:• | McAfee Quarantine Manager — To quarantine detected items in the MQM server. |
• | Local Database — To quarantine detected items in the local MSME server, at the specified path. |
