McAfee Antivirus exclusion settings

[tdudas]

Hello All,

I'm currently seaching for Antivirus settings might be set on server running vCenter Server.

Does anyone of you have experience antivirus installation / folder exclusion settings on Windows server running VMware vCenter?

Thanks for any help and advice!

Regards,

Tibor

For the vCenter server, if you don't stray from the default paths during installation, the most important exclusions would be these folders and subfolders:

C:\ProgramData\VMware\

C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\

Obligatory pagefile

Also keep in mind to exclude the database files on your SQL server, or if you're running SQL Express on your vCenter, exclude those database folders too.
