How to configure KESL to use non-default folders [KES for Linux]
Information in this article can be used when there are disk space limitations imposed on the folders used by KESL:
- /var/opt/kaspersky - default KESL installation folder
- /tmp - default folder used to store temporary files during the scan
/var/opt/kaspersky
To move files located in this directory you can create a symbolic link to another folder before installation. Use the following steps:
-
Before installing KESL:
mkdir
/new/kesl/folder/
ln
-s
/new/kesl/folder/
/var/opt/kaspersky
#root has to be the owner of all kesl subfolders below /
chmod
go-w,a-t
/new
- Install KESL
If you encounter "Fatal error: Invalid permissions. Check /, /opt, /opt/kaspersky, /var, /var/opt, /var/opt/kaspersky. Only root user should have write access to these directories." while running the post install script, make sure root is owner of all subfolders in the path to kesl executable.
/tmp
You can declare a new temporary folder for KESL by following these steps:
-
Execute this:
systemctl edit kesl
-
Add the following:
[Service]
Environment=
"TMP=/new/temp/folder"
