Why is the Definition File not updated?

After the Definition File has been pulled or pushed to clients, it will not be deployed until a scanning operation has been invoked by the Ad-Aware Enterprise Server service. The updated Definition File will not be activated even if Ad-Aware 2008 Professional starts a new scan. The only way to activate the new Definitions File is to run a scan that is invoked by the Ad-Aware Enterprise Server service.

We recommend that you arrange a scan to occur soon after (10 minutes, for example) a scheduled updating task finishes. Once both tasks are complete, the Definition File on client computers will be updated.

Applies to: Ad-Aware Enterprise 2.1
