Learn how to perform a Trend Micro Vulnerability Scanner (TMVS) scheduled scan on Windows Server 2003 when a user is logged off.
To do a scheduled scan, use the Windows Task Scheduler:
- Open Notepad and create a new text file named iplist.txt.
- Inside the text file, enter individual IP addresses or an IP range of computers you want to check and save it. You can use an asterisk (*) or question mark (?) as wildcards.
Below is an example:Command IP address that will be checked 172.1.116.1? 172.1.116.10 to 172.1.116.19 172.1.116.* 172.1.116.1 to 172.1.116.225 172.1.* 172.1.1.1 to 172.1.255.255 - Copy the iplist.txt file to this location:
C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\OfficeScan\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS
- Open the Task Scheduler. Create a task and choose TMVS.exe.
- Enter the task name and select your preferred schedule time.
- Enter the user name and password.
- Select Open advanced properties for this task when I click finish and click Finish.
- Configure the Task tab.
On the "Run" field, enter "C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\OfficeScan\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS\TMVS.exe" iplist.txt report.csv - Leave the other options to their default values and click OK.
- Log off the machine.
The TMVS task is now scheduled to trigger and execute. You can find the report.csv file in C:\Program Files(x86)\Trend Micro\OfficeScan\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS.
- Open Notepad and create a new text file named iplist.txt.
- Inside the text file, enter individual IP addresses or an IP range of computers you want to check and save it. You can use an asterisk (*) or question mark (?) as wildcards.

- 64-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Trend Micro\OfficeScan\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS\
- 32-bit: C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\OfficeScan\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS\
This is where TMVS.exe in Windows Task Scheduler will find the iplist.txt file by default.
