The SoftXpand Xpress Admin Tools

Introduction:

The SoftXpand Xpress Admin Tools management console is designed for the SoftXpand Xpress administrator, and enables configuring any and all system settings – from activation, to Host settings, to Workstation settings and all other supplemental features.

Admin Tools is a versatile application in the sense that it always opens with configuration options based on the current SoftXpand Xpress status – depending if SoftXpand Xpress is currently running or stopped, i.e. – an Admin Tools management console opened while SoftXpand Xpress is running will have different options than when it is ran in Host Console (Windows session), when SoftXpand Xpress is stopped.

Opening Admin Tools:

The Admin Tools management console can be launched in three ways:

·    Clicking the ‘Open Admin Tool’ link in the SoftXpand Xpress Control Panel.

·    Selecting Admin Tools in Windows' Start > (All) Programs > SoftXpand.

·    Right-clicking the Host Tray Icon and selecting Admin Tools.

The Admin Tools Management Console:

Admin Tools is an MMC 3.0 snap-in. It consists of 2 major parts – the components tree on the left side pane and the work area on the right side pane.

Selecting a node in the left pane will immediately display the relevant data in the right pane.

Available nodes are:

·    Host: for configuring all Host settings.

·    Workstations: for configuring individual Workstations.

·    License: for viewing the current license and for activating SoftXpand Xpress.
