Mixed Signals

I have several SEP clients that do different things when I push a scan down from the SEPM. a couple clients have a window pop-up showing a scan in progress, some say in the status window they are scanning, most show no indication anywhere that a scan is in progress, however if you try to locally do a scan, it tells you one is in progress in a pop-up window, asking for an OK or cancel.

Is there a way to change the icon near the clock to indicate a scan is underway or have the status screen say (scanning vs. "no problems dected") while scanning via SEPM?

I browsed the various communities, none listed seem appropriate, a clue would be appreciated as to where I might re-post this on the proper fourm for an answer.
