I'm still experimenting with Clam and I've got 103.4 installed on an OEL

What is "OEL"? I'm guessing it's some Red Hat derivative.
I've got freshclam configured to download new updates every
few hours. I can manually run freshclam and successfully receive
updates and I can manually run clamscan successfully.
If I run a ps command, I see /usr/share/clamav/freshclam-sleep is
running so I'm assuming that this calls freshclam on the schedule. But
what is launching this on startup?
There are no cronjobs configured. When I look at my systemd services, I
see one named clamav-freshclam but it is disabled and not running. I
expanded my search and found a total of 4 services with 'clam' in the
title (clamav-freshclam, clamav-clamonacc, clamd@, and clamonacc) but
none of them are running and they are all currently disabled.
Is it some other service that doesn't have 'clam' in the name?
"grep -r freshclam /usr/lib/systemd/ /etc/systemd/" might turn up a
pointer to the systemd unit that manages this. "rpm -qf
/usr/share/clamav/freshclam-sleep" will probably tell you what package
this file belongs to.
TBH this seems like a very odd way to manage freshclam, as systemd
includes methods to call something like freshclam on a schedule, or
manage it directly either in the foreground or as a traditional
background daemon.
