How Total Visual Agent Works
Manage All the Databases Across Your Network
Install Total Visual Agent on one machine to manage all the databases across your network.
Use the Manager to Create and Schedule Your Tasks
The Total Visual Agent Manager is where you create and schedule the work. Create Event Groups (lists of databases, directories, Task Groups, and Actions) that you want to execute and schedule them.
The Manager also lets you view log files and other administrative reports showing the results of previous activity. You can also start and stop the Total Visual Agent Monitor and Service from this program.
Once you define your Event Groups in the Manager, determine whether to use the Monitor or the Service to run the assigned Actions.
Launch Your Tasks
Total Visual Agent Monitor or Service runs in the background waiting for the time to process the next event. There are two ways to run this:
Total Visual Agent Monitor
For the Monitor program to run, a user must be logged onto the computer that is running Total Visual Agent. This program then launches a task and waits for the next one.
Total Visual Agent Service
Alternatively, use the Total Visual Agent Service to execute scheduled actions in a more secure manner. Running as a Windows Service, it does not require a user to be logged on and can automatically restart if your machine restarts.
The Core Engine
The Total Visual Agent Engine actually performs the work of database compact, repair, archive, analysis, launching macros and command lines, emailing alerts, etc.
