To specify how far back in time a configured scan should check for new or modified files, use the fmps scan configure start-time command in configuration mode.
Note
You can use this command only on scans that are in the "configured" state. You cannot configure active, paused, aborted, completed, or scheduled scans.
This command allows you to limit the scope of a scan by defining that it scan only files that were added or changed after a specified date and time or since a specified time in the past.
For more information, see the File Protect User Guide.
