As soon as administrators open a console, it will be registered in the Scout database. Registered consoles may be displayed via menu command:

Click File > Console management > Manage consoles.

For each console, the logged-on user, computer name and logon domain are shown. The active console is hidden. If an administrator has multiple console instances open on the same computer, the consoles are numbered serially. For example, mmi #2 is the second console instance of user mmi.

Deactivating console instance

Remove the check mark in front of the relevant entry.

This console instance will no longer be displayed in any of the console communication dialogs.

Deleting console instance

This allows old consoles that are no longer in use to be removed from memory. This function has no effect on currently opened consoles.

Select the relevant entry and click Delete.

The console instance and all commands related to this instance will be deleted.

Important:

This means that you lose part of the command history, and possibly also commands that have not yet been processed.

Check users for AD membership

Click Check and then Select or Deactivate.

Unknown users are selected or disabled depending on the selected option.

Searching for user, computer or domain

Click Search, and then in the relevant column in the search field, enter a string as search term.

To replace characters, you may use the wildcard characters * and ?. Case sensitivity is not relevant.
