SEP Scans running to a Remote server.

Hello,

I was just curious on if this could be a possible solution to an issue i have been having.

We are currently running 12.1.5 on a majority of our network. One of our fileservers keeps dropping shares once we enable SEP. Since we have disabled SEP we have not had an issue (truthfully i just think the server is overloaded). Since SEP is disabled the server is vunerable. would it be possible to set up a separate server to run remote scans to our file server shares? would this still possibly overload the fileserver even though the SEP agent is disabled on that server?
