The "Hosts" page is designed for:
Host table
Host table description
The table in this section contains a list of host accounts (server or personal computer) whose data has been added to the platform database. The data about the host is automatically transferred by the ROBIN Agent immediately after the installation of the client part of the platform on this machine is completed. Thus, these are hosts that have a robot execution system - you can run robots on them or get information about robots that have already been run.
The table displays only those accounts to which you have configured access (more details in Access control. Description of functionality).
Since a host can have multiple accounts on which robot execution is available, there can be multiple rows in the table with the same host but with different accounts and information about them.
Column name / button name | Description |
|---|---|
| "Host" column | The name of the host and its IP address There is one of 2 icons next to it:
|
| "Account" column | The name of the host account: This is a link (button) that opens the card of the selected account. The card is opened in read mode (For more information about the account card, see the Account card subsection). Next to the name of the account are displayed:
The card will not open if:
|
| "Running robots" column | Number of robot instances running on this account |
| "Tags" column | Words or phrases that further describe the account. To be filled in by the user via the account card If there are too many tags, only some of them are displayed. All other tags are visible only by clicking on the button |
Button | The records in the table are updated as soon as you click it |
Use the "Columns" drop-down list to select which columns will be hidden or displayed, with the "Account" column always displayed.
