Workstations

Add, remove and configure workstations from this page.

Note

Adding/editing/removing a workstation can only be done from a workstation with Admin or Super Admin role.

Adding a workstation

  • Click the ADD button next to the search field to add a new workstation.

  • Fill in the workstation details:

    1. Name: Provide a friendly name for the workstation (e.g. “Office PC”)

    2. IP Address: Enter the IP address of the workstation. This must be reachable from the server.

    3. Role: Set the workstation role. Refer to the Roles section below for more details.

    4. Password: Set a password for this workstation (required for editor and admin roles). This password will be used when navigating to the Settings page from this workstation.

    Note

    For new installation, the first workstation must be added from the Super Admin workstation.

Editing a workstation

  • Click the CONFIGURE button next to the workstation name.

  • Modify the desired fields (name, IP address, role, password).

  • Click SUBMIT to save the changes.

Disabling a workstation

  • Click the three dots menu next to the workstation name.

  • Select DISABLE.

This will disable all plugin entries that are associated with this workstation. You can re-enable the workstation later which will re-enable the associated plugin entries as well.

Removing a workstation

Note

You can only remove other workstations. At least one workstation with admin role must be configured.

  • Click the three dots menu next to the workstation name.

  • Select DELETE.

  • Confirm the deletion in the dialog.

This will remove all plugin entries that are associated with this workstation. If you want to keep the plugin entries, make sure to assign them to a different workstation before deleting.

Roles

  • Admin: This role has full access to the system, including managing workstations, plugins, and system settings.

  • Editor: This role can manage plugins and view other system details but cannot manage workstations or modify system settings.

  • User: This role has access to the dashboard only and cannot make any changes to the system.

    Note

    Super Admin role is only assigned to the localhost workstation created by default. It has full access to the system and cannot be deleted or modified. When upgrading from a pre 2026.3.x version, if there is a workstation configured with ip 127.0.0.1, it will be assigned the Super Admin role (and renamed to “Super Admin”).

    If there is no workstation with ip 127.0.0.1, a new workstation with that ip will be created and assigned the Super Admin role. The system will run in recovery mode until the password is set by navigating to the localhost workstation and completing the onboarding process.

Password reset

A workstation with Admin role or higher can assign a new password to any registered workstation using the CONFIGURE button. If there is only 1 Admin workstation and its password is lost, the user can set a new password for that workstation from the Super Admin workstation.

To reset the Super Admin password (for any reason) the system must be set into recovery mode. This can be done by inserting “recovery_mode”: true inside the core.config file located in the configuration directory (default: C:ProgramDataPlatform Connectorsconfig.storagecore.config). Then restarting the application using the restart button inside the system settings page.

When the system is in recovery mode, only the Super Admin workstation can access the web UI. By navigating to http(s)://localhost:8000 from that machine, the user will be prompted to set a new password. After that, the system will exit recovery mode and return to normal operation.
