HAVP project is pretty much frozen/abandoned at this time anyway.

# HAVP reloads scanners virus database by receiving a signal
# (send SIGHUP to PID from PIDFILE, see "man kill") or after
# a specified period of time. Specify here the number of
# minutes to wait for reloading.
#
# This only affects library scanners (clamlib, trophie).
# Other scanners must be updated manually.
#
# Default:
# DBRELOAD 60

I would like to ask what the value 60 min means ? Does it reload DB every 60 minutes or ? Currently, I am running havp as standalone setting with libclamav ( no clamd running at all), with freshclam + scamp.sh in cron job for updating definitions and have to use restart instead of reload because it does not reload new DB .

With ClamAV it just means to check for new signatures. Like "SelfCheck" clamd.conf option.

I guess no scanner can be forced to reload signatures so maybe DBCHECK would be more describing.. and maybe 15 minutes would be more realistic default.
