SEP scheduled scan behavior if location change.

Issue/Introduction

Scheduled full scan behavior in different locations and outside the duration value.

Environment

SEPM has defined in the policy a full scheduled scan at a specific time, the same for all locations.

Resolution

Scheduled scan is seen separately in each location if all locations have the same policy. This means each location will try to initiate and finish the scan each time it will match with the retry window and duration parameter.

If multiple locations are configured and the location changes during the scan, multiple scans will be initiated and possibly suspended if the location changes again or the duration is exceeded.
