Management Console Configuration and User Interface

The Management Console has a web-based user interface, which makes it easy to access from any machine on the same network. If it is installed on the machine named hostname, you simply need to point your browser to:

http://hostname:50080

The port number 50080 is configurable as described in "Embedded Management Console Configuration" in the Kofax RPA Administrator's Guide.

Use the tabs at the top of the window to navigate within the Management Console.

Most subsections of the Management Console display items of a certain type in a table. When there are many items to display, they are divided into pages. The Schedules per page setting can be used to select how many items (schedules in this case) to display at the same time. Please note that this number does not adapt automatically to the height of the browser window. Thus empty space below the table does not always mean that you are seeing the last items - it may also mean that the "per page" setting is too low compared to the window height.

At the bottom of the table you can navigate between the individual pages of display, thus moving upwards and downwards within the same table. The button refreshes the display.

The tables support sorting. Click any column heading to sort by that column. Click the same column heading again to reverse the sorting order. Sorting is performed on the whole table, not on each page individually. Thus if you have more than one "page," you may see a completely different set of rows if you change the sorting order.

Starting from Kofax RPA version 10, all RoboServers must auto register to the Management Console. Therefore, the URL and credentials for the Management Console along with the cluster name must be specified when starting the RoboServer (either at the command line or using the RoboServer Settings application).
