Tobias,
I know it can seems long for a simple scan. I had the same impression.
Since it is most likely an OpenVas issue (PacketFence is only using
OpenVAS API to trigger some scan jobs and we noticed that it is the same
thing if you start a scan job from the OpenVAS webadmin), i suggest you
to post on their mailing-list.
Here's the link:

If you don't mind, depending on the answer you have (or don't have!),
keep us posted.
Thanks!

Hi,
i only activate IT-Grundschutz, IT-Grundschutz 10, IT-Grundschutz 11,
Windows and Windows: Microsoft Bulletins as Scan Families (847 of
25561). After the first scan (10 min) i disconnected the new client,
deleted it in the nodes and reconnected it to the network for a new
scan. The second scan was running for 10min too.

Tobias,
From what i saw in my tests while developping, the first time you
start a scan, OpenVas will load all of the plugins, required or
not by the scan.
What I can suggest you is to limit the number of plugins required
by your scan configuration and once the openvas database has been
loaded (after the first scan), try to avoid restarting it.
Let me know if you run into any other issues.
Thanks!

Hello,
i use OpenVAS in combination with Packetfence. If Packetfence
insert a new scan task into OpenVAS the task only starts after 10
minutes. First the task is "requested" for 10min, then the task
"run" for 15sec. If i start an task manuell, it waits 10 min.
What can i do to start the task directly?
