Endpoint Protection

Hi ,I am testing Symantec Antivirus on Linux .The Latest Version available is 1.0.10 .I need someone from Symantec to answer following questions .

1. What does Autoprotect means for SAV on linux .Does it mean that file wil be scanned on copy ,read ,rename and modification .
2. Where can I define the action to taken on virus detection (for Autoprotect) .e.g I want the virus (eicar)  to be immediately quarantined when it is copied to the server but it is not happening .However when I do an On demand scan , eicar  is detected and Quarantined.
3. When I do an on demand scan ,the process used is rtvsan and it takes all the CPU Usage .though the scanning is faster but why it takes 100% CPU .
4. When I try to do a liveupdate ,I get this error message "Check that java directory is in PATH " .How can I resolve this .
5. As per my understanding ,Antivirus for linux is not manageable via SEP Manager .Kindly let me know if it is otherwise.

"Auto-Protect does not function on Linux platforms"

This is not true.  savap is the AutoProtect module.  You must either be running a supported kernel, or build your own AP kernel module in order for it to work.

#2 "Where can I define the action to taken on virus detection"

Ensure that Auto-Protect is working first.
