Status Center

Events occur when products perform tasks within the system. Examples of events are Robot Console messages or Robot Schedule jobs ending. Most events are handled by the product involved. When an event cannot be handled at the product level, it's sent to Robot Network for handling. Robot Network creates a status for the event. These statuses are displayed in the Status Center for hosts, nodes, Robot products, and applications.

In the Navigation Pane, clicktap Status Center under the Robot Network menu. If the menu is hidden, hover over the Navigation Pane to expand it.

Things to know and do:
