Cause
An official anti-virus recommendation is requested by the IT department.

Resolution
We have no official recommendation for Anti-Virus Software for ION Enterprise, StruxureWare Power
Monitoring, or Power Monitoring Expert software packages.

PME can be used with antivirus (AV) software.

PME can be used with application whitelisting software products such as McAfee Application Control software.

NOTE: AV software can have a significant impact on system performance if not set up correctly. In particular, SQL Server performance can be affected if data and log files are not excluded from on-access scans.

Running anti-virus software on your SQL Server:

• It is recommended to run anti-virus software on your SQL server
• It is recommended that the software security requirements of your organization are assessed and specifically the potential risks to the SQL Server installation
• If you determine that you need to run anti-virus software on your SQL Server as a result of your assessment, follow the recommendations described in the Microsoft Support article (ID: 309422) at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309422

Whitelisting the Power Monitoring Expert folder:

• It is recommended to whitelist the Power Monitoring Expert installation folder. The default location is:
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\Power Monitoring Expert
