How to use the console more effectively:
Press F5 to refresh RAC.
In a larger network, with more workstations, these features will come
in handy: Selection of more records can be performed, for example, by
pressing the CTRL key and left clicking on the selected items, or in a similar
way, but with the SHIFT key. Press the key combination “CTRL” and “A” to
select all workstations.
Groups - Individual clients can be placed in groups using the Edit > Groups
feature from the console menu. Placing into groups can be used to filter
or to create tasks, since the tasks can be applied to the whole group. The
groups are independent of each server – they do not replicate.
Filter - Filter is used to display only records that are important for the
administrator to know. Filter can be enabled by the option View > ‘Show/
Hide Filter Pane’ in the console menu. To activate a filter, check the ‘Use
Filter’ checkbox and click the Apply Changes button to start the filtering. In
the first section – ‘Computer filter criteria’ - you can filter servers/clients in
several ways:
Only clients (whole word) – Only those clients whose name
corresponds to a word thread you typed in will be included in the
output.
Only clients like – Only those clients whose name contains a thread
you typed in will be included in the output.
In the next section, you can limit filtration by the Groups division.
Clients in Groups – In this case, only clients belonging to defined
groups will be selected.
Clients in other Groups or N/A - Only clients belonging to other than
chosen groups, or not belonging to any group will be included in
output. If a client belongs to some of the chosen groups, but also in
a group that was not selected, then this client will also be included in
output.
Clients in no Groups - In this case, individual clients will be selected.
The other filter settings differ depending on the active tab, but mostly it is
only a variation of the time filter that can limit outputs only to records that
were created in a certain time period.
Export Data from the tabs Clients, Alert Log, Event Log, Scan Log and
Tasks can be (even after filters have been applied) exported to a file using
the option Export... in the File menu. Or alternatively, by the option Export
Selected... – only selected records will be exported. Data can be exported
to different file extensions. We recommend exporting to an HTML or to a
CSV file (the file can be edited, for example, in MS Excel after that), where
individual attributes are separated by commas (comma delimited) or by
semicolons (semicolon delimited).
