Spirion Create Stop All Tasks

Scenario - After a scan task has been initiated, how do you stop the already running Spirion scan. This may be required to stop a scan if an operations team needs to perform maintenance on the endpoint for patching, etc.

  • To stop a scan in progress you create an empty "Scheduled Task" in the Console in the Policies tab.  You assign the endpoint you wish to execute the stop request to the this "Scheduled Task" using the below image options settings.  Because the agent has already executed a command from the Console its necessary to create an additional "Stop Scan(s)" policy template to execute the additional command.
    • Settings:
      One Time
      Local System Account
      Stop all instances of Spirion and run this search
      Do not run

  1. The agent will receive this new task policy update, stop the existing search, and execute this empty task.  This empty task will not initiate any command except a stop all instances of Spirion scans.
