2. For the wanted scan result, click Actions > Cancel malware scan.

1. On the left, click Detection and reporting > Malware detection.
2. For the wanted scan result, click Actions > Rescan image.
3. Click Rescan to confirm.
4. For a bulk rescan, when you select one or more images with a different or am empty scanner host pool, you must select a new scanner host pool.

   • Click Rescan image.

   • Select a new scan host pool.

     The new scan host pool is applicable for all the selected images for this rescan.

   • Click Rescan to confirm.

     Rescan (and resume) is not supported for scan results with scan type recovery.

5. For a rescan of failed or canceled jobs, scanning is triggered from the point of failure (resumed) instead of from a complete scan, under the following conditions:

   • If the value of Date of scan is more than 48 hours, then the job is not resumed and the full scan is initiated. This action ensures that the malware signatures that are used for the scan do not differ significantly.

   • Supported for Standard or MS-Windows policy backup images that have a large number of files (> 500 KB). For a DNAS policy, it is supported for more than one stream.

   • Instant Access must have succeeded for the failed job.

   • Resume identifies the first instant access capable copy to scan, which can be different from the copy that was selected for the initial scan request.

   After the job is resumed the existing scan result is moved from the state "failed" to "pending" and subsequently to an "in-progress" state. The progress update can continue from the point of failure. For a complete rescan the new scan result is displayed. If the user needs to perform a complete scan, then it can be started using the on-demand scan options.

To delete the scan results

1. On the left, click Detection and reporting > Malware detection.
2. Any scan results that are in a "failed" or "canceled" state can be deleted manually. Click Actions > Delete scan results.
