If your antivirus application leads to issues, it's recommended to raise a support ticket with the antivirus provider.

You can also consider the following actions:

  • You can include the following folders in the antivirus allowlist:

    /var/lib/rancher
    /var/lib/kubelet
    /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite
    /datadisk
    /var/lib/rancher/rke2/server/db
    /run/k3s
    /var/lib/rook
    /var/lib/rancher/rke2
    /etc/rancher/rke2
    /tmp    
    /run/containerd
    /var/run
    /var/lib/containerd
    /var/log/pods
    /var/log/containers
    /etc/cni
    /opt/cni
    /sys
    /proc/var/lib/rancher
    /var/lib/kubelet
    /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite

    Note:
