do you think i should create a freshclam.service with timer and reference the clamav-freshclam.service , also in freshclam.conf the checks by default is set to 12 checks by day and you can change that,
also found this article dated to 2020 https://www.golinuxcloud.com/steps-install-configure-clamav-antivirus-centos-linux/#33_On_CentOS_8_with_systemd_clamav-freshclamservice not sure if the service was enhanced since 2020 to support sleep , since also in my logs i do see that calls freshclam :"received signal to wake up" Received signal: wake up ClamAV update process started at Tue Nov 1 10:17:30 2022 daily.cld database is up-to-date (version: 26706, sigs: 2009713, f-level: 90, builder: raynman) main.cvd database is up-to-date (version: 62, sigs: 6647427, f-level: 90, builder: sigmgr) bytecode.cvd database is up-to-date (version: 333, sigs: 92, f-level: 63, builder: awillia2) -------------------------------------- Received signal: wake up ClamAV update process started at Tue Nov 1 12:17:30 2022 daily.cld database is up-to-date (version: 26706, sigs: 2009713, f-level: 90, builder: raynman) main.cvd database is up-to-date (version: 62, sigs: 6647427, f-level: 90, builder: sigmgr) bytecode.cvd database is up-to-date (version: 333, sigs: 92, f-level: 63, builder: awillia2) -------------------------------------- ________________________________ From: clamav-users <[email protected]> on behalf of Kenneth Porter <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 28, 2022 8:52 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [clamav-users] freshclam-sleep doesn't exist in epel8 packages Also look at "man freshclam.conf". I don't see any facility to randomize the check times, as freshclam-sleep provides. That's where a systemd timer would be nice, as it provides a rich set of syntax for random sleeps. _______________________________________________ Manage your clamav-users mailing list subscription / unsubscribe: https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-documentation https://docs.clamav.net/#mailing-lists-and-chat
