Dutch term or phrase: sentence
1.Het is zeer wenselijk dat een update van het antivirus product (of onderdeel ervan) automatisch kan worden opgehaald (pull) bij de leverancier van het product of te worden aangeleverd (push) door de leverancier.

2.In TVCS en ScanMail voor Notes op AIX is configureerbaar dat updates van door u toegepaste Trend Micro antivirus producten (of onderdelen ervan) automatisch worden opgehaald (pull) van de website van Trend Micro.

Can anyone help me with the second sentence?

I am lost.

Explanation:
can be made that allow you (or 'allowing/enabling you') to pull your applied
Trend Micro anti-virus products (or parts thereof) from the Trend Micro website automatically...

I sincerely hope the above will shed some light in your hours of darkness :)

Again, I don't particularly like the 'Dutch' source text. Poor quality, indeed.

Explanation:
No wonder you're lost. This is not a correct sentence in Dutch. My very wild guess is that "het" is omitted. However, it still does not sound too good.
I think the idea is that in the mentioned programmes it is possible to configurate updates. Hope this helps

neutral  Chris Hopley: AIX is a computing platform (operating system) so I really think you should use "on" and not "in" as the preposition.

neutral  jarry (X): As a purist (of sorts?), "To automatically retrieve" is precisely the split infinitive I was trying to avoid.
