Issue: During an upgrade from a customized VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i to VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i, the new McAfee Installation Designer custom settings were not getting applied.Resolution: The VirusScan Enterprise Reports Extension will now handle events where specific fields are blank. Issue: Some VirusScan Enterprise events were not being parsed properly by ePolicy Orchestrator 4.5.When the ePolicy Orchestrator migration tool, which comes with this package, is used to migrate VirusScan 8.5i settings it now sets Artemis levels to a default of Very Low.

If this is the first time that the extension is checked in, however, My Defaults has Artemis levels set to Very Low.

The VirusScan 8.7i NAP and extension that are included with the Repost do change the McAfee Default policy, but do not modify the My Default policy, or any custom policy settings that were made prior to the check-in of the new NAP/extension.

If VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i had Artemis levels set prior to this repost deployment, those settings are preserved.

The product installation does not modify current settings to set the Artemis Sensitivity Level to Very Low.

Issue: With the change in Artemis defaults there are several variables that need to be taken into account when introducing this Repost Package into the environment.

Workaround: See McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB69397 for information on obtaining the latest McAfee Installation Designer repost that resolves this issue.

Issue: VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i packages created with McAfee Installation Designer fail to install on computers running Windows 7 when they are deployed from ePolicy Orchestrator.

Here is a list of known issues that we are aware of at production time.

The installation of VirusScan Enterprise now disables the Defender feature of Microsoft Windows Vista in order to improve performance of the operating system.

Because of this change, the installer has been modified to enable the option only if VirusScan is installed under Maximum Security settings.

The on-access scanner memory scan function (Processes on enable) has been modified significantly to make it more comprehensive.

This helps save logs that might have been overwritten with the previous РІР‚Сљbackup previous log onlyРІР‚Сњ method.

The installation packages for patches and reposts have been upgraded so that the installation log name, created in the McAfeeLogs folder, has a dynamically generated name based on the current date and time of the installation.

NOTE: See item #1 under Known Issues for further information about this topic. Refer to McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB53735 for further information on Artemis Technology.

The Heuristic network check for suspicious files (known as Artemis) settings for On-Access, On-Demand and Email Scanners are now set to Very Low by default in the installer and in the McAfee Default policy for VirusScan Extension.

Refer to McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB68449 for further information on the benefits and cautions in using this new package.

VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i Repost Patch 3 is the first package to include a placeholder stub DAT that reduces the size of the package, and prevents the system from having to download a DAT package twice in order to be fully installed and up-to-date.
