Core Console User Interface Components

Console Tree Pane

The Core Console node can have multiple Core Server nodes. Under the Core Server node, there 

are three main nodes. These are: Workstations, Tasks, and Reports. Clicking on one of these 

nodes changes the information displayed in the Results pane.

Action Pane

Actions in the Action pane are applied to selected workstations and are only shown when one or 

more workstation have been selected. This Action pane is a duplication of the right-click context 

menu.

Core Console Properties Dialog

The Core Console Properties dialog is accessed by right-clicking on the Core Console icon in the 

Console Tree pane and selecting Properties. For information on configuration options in each tab, 

refer to the 

Configuring Core Console Manually

 section.

Core Server Properties Dialog

The Core Server dialog is accessed by right-clicking on the Core Server connection icon in the 

Console Tree pane and selecting Properties. 

Console Tree Pane

The Console Tree pane has the following nodes:

•

Core Console — This is the root node.

•

Core Server — There can be multiple server nodes. 

The management of workstations, processing of tasks and communication between Core 

Console and workstations is done by the Core Server. There is one Core Server node for each 

connection between Core Console and a Core Server. 

•

Workstations — One for each Core Server. 

Under the Workstations node are three sub nodes Managed Workstations, Discovered 

Workstations and, Custom Workstation Groups node where custom groups of workstations 

can be created and populated. 

•

Tasks — One for each Core Server. 

The Tasks node displays the current state of all Server tasks. A task is defined as an action 

applied to one or more workstations. Expanding the Tasks node displays three sub-nodes for 

the states of a Task. The Scheduled node displays tasks that are scheduled to run in the future. 

The Active node displays tasks currently being processed. The History node displays tasks that 

have already been completed. Tasks older than a certain date are automatically deleted. This 

can be configured through the Server tab of the Core Server Properties dialog. 

•

Reports — under the root node.
