Introduction

For users with certain privileges, RCS Console displays buttons that run wizards.

What it looks like

This is how the homepage is displayed with enabled wizards:

Button Function

Open the wizard to quickly create an agent.

NOTE: the button is only enabled for users with Administrator and Technician privileges.

Open the wizard to quickly save operation and target data.

NOTE: the button is only enabled for users with Administrator and System Administrator privileges.

Quick investigation

This wizard quickly creates an agent. The wizard asks you to enter the name (i.e.: "SmartSpy") and type of agent to be created (desktop or mobile) and creates, in the following order:

  1. a "SmartSpy" operation
  2. a "SmartSpy" target
  3. a "SmartSpy" factory
  4. a "SmartSpy" user group in which the current user is the sole member

and directly opens the factory configuration page. See "Factory or agent basic configuration settings".

Other elements can be added to this operation, target or user group by simply using the detail page.

Quick Save

This wizard lets you quickly manage open operation or target data to save and delete them from the database.

Data is saved in a backup and can be restored at any time.

Following are explanations of the various options:

Option Description
Backup all data

Saves all selected operation or target data in a full type backup file.

The backup appears in a programmed backup list and can be restored at any time.

Delete all data from the system

Deletes all selected operation or target evidence from the database.

The operation or target remain open and running Only the database is reduced in size.

CAUTION: if this option is combined with immediate backup, give the backup a name that clearly indicates that the corresponding evidence was deleted from the system.

Close the object

Close the selected operation or target.

CAUTION: the operation or target is closed and cannot be reopened. Agents no longer send data but evidence already received can still be viewed.

Delete the object from the system

Deletes all selected operation or target data. Operation data, targets, agents and all evidence is deleted from databases.

CAUTION: deleting an operation/target is irreversible and all data linked to that operation/target is lost.
