Hi Community,
We are using as AV solution Sentinel One. This Solution isn’t standard included in the
AntivirusInfo.xml for Secure Restore/SureBackup. So I had to create my own entry, based on very little info and no list of error codes. It’s working but I don’t feel 100% safe as it wasn’t standard included or supported. During a recent Veeam On Tour it was brought to my attention, that using a different AV solution other then the one that’s active on your server bring an extra level of security/check. Now standard on this windows servers os Defender installed.
Defender is also standard part of the AntivirusInfo.xml. We don’t want 2 AV solutions add the same time active on our systems. However if we could for example with SureBackup start a PS script that activate Defender at the start of the job and deactivates it again add the end of the task. This would be a great solution to me. Has anyone here this kind of solution in place and would like to share the PS?
What about the AntivirusInfo.xml would it then the best option to remove the S1 entry, or is there an option to define in a script to choose which solution to use.
Really curious to here you thoughts and comments.
Thanks,
Benny

I have never tried to use 2 AV solutions and not sure even using a PS script you could tell it which one to use since both are included in the XML file. My suggestion if you don’t feel confident with Sentinel One then I would remove it from the XML and just go with Defender as long as it is active. Then do some testing to see if you get the results, you want and feel more confident.
