We have AV on all of our servers. For the SQL servers, I exclude the data, log , and temp files. I have not noticed a performance hit.

[Cross posted here and on the Vipre Enterprise list] There is some debate among my fellow IS staff here weather AV should be on all 200+ of our servers. From my standpoint my question would be "Why not?" - put it on all servers and exclude what's necessary We are "SQL heavy" and I'm sure performance is the primary concern , but is there any compelling reason to completely leave it off of some servers?
