Many organizations have employees working in shifts. Hence, while running agent based scans, it becomes important to manage coverage of all in scope workstations. Normally, to cover them, scan window is set to 24 hours.
But because of this scan window, scheduled daily agent scans will be skipping. Since the scan will start a few minutes later than scheduled there is a chance that the next scheduled daily scan will not start because the previously scheduled occurrence is still running.
Solution to this issue is to change scan window to 1380 minutes (23 hours). This gives some padding for post processing to complete before the next scan launches avoiding overlapping of scan jobs which results to scheduled scans skipping.
Happy Learning !!
