This opens a separate tab for each Supervisor.

You can close the tabs by clicking "x" in the "index tab".

Columns in the components table

The Prinect Supervisor view displays a table of components (Prinect services) controlled by the selected Supervisor. The table has the following columns:

Column	Property
Component	Name of the component.
Executable	Name of the executable program, e.g. *.exe.
Version	Component version.
Level	Each component is assigned a so-called "level". The levels determine the sequence when components are started and stopped. •All components of a level are always stopped or started together in a selection of components. The selection is highlighted red. Exception: Components of the "ApplicationProcesses" level can be started and stopped individually. •Stopping: The components with the highest level are at the bottom of the list of components. A selected component is to be stopped. If there are components with a higher level that are bound to the selected component, these components are stopped first. Only after that are all the components on the level of the selected component stopped if they are bound to this component. •Start The components with the lowest level are at the top of the list of components. A selected component is to be started. If there are components with a lower level that are bound to the selected component, these components are started first. Only after that are all the components on the level of the selected component started if they are bound to this component.
Computer	Name of the computer where the component is installed.
Status	•"Stopped": Stopping of the components is finished. •"Failed": The component could not be started or stopped. •"Unlicensed": The component is unlicensed and cannot be started for this reason. •"Running": The component is running. Note: Details about the first process start that failed are shown for components that did not start.
Message	This is where messages display that the respective components transmit to the Supervisor and consequently to the PMC.
Type	Internal type designation of the component.
Internal Name	The name of the component that is used internally in the workflow, for example, in log files.
Component ID	Internal identification of the component, which also contains an association with the computer on which the component is running: Internal Name@Computer Name.
Product ID	Displays an abbreviation for the Prinect product to which the component belongs, for example "PWF" for "Prinect Workflow" or "PCS" for "Prinect Common Services". This allows you to quickly identify which product the component belongs to.
Process ID	It is feasible to have the Process ID displayed if you want to distinguish between processes bearing the same name (several "HDNormalizer.exe" files are often displayed at the same time, for example). Then you can use the Task Manager to specifically terminate processes that cannot be stopped in any other way, for example. The "Process ID" column is hidden by default. If necessary, you must use the "Select Columns" dialog and enable this column. See Select Columns.
Variants	In this column, you can see whether the component supports multiple variants. See Multiple versions of components.
