System Container Status

The System Container Status section provides a unified interface to monitor and manage all active Connectware containers. It gives quick access to container states, logs, configurations, and control actions like stopping, restarting, or deleting containers—helping ensure smooth and transparent system operations.

System Container View

The System Container View allows you to monitor the status of all active Connectware containers. You can select one or multiple containers to stop, restart, and delete them. Click a container for more information about its configuration, logs, and environment variables.

• To open the System Container View, select System > System Status, and click the System Container tab.

The System Container View contains information about all running Connectware containers with the following information:

• Name: The name of the container

• Last updated: The timestamp of the last time that the container status was updated

• Created at: The time the container is already running

• Status: Connectware containers can enter one of the following states:

  • running: The container is working as expected

  • starting: The container is currently in the process of starting

  • stopping: The container is currently stopping

  • restarting: The container has triggered the restarting procedure

  • exited: The container was shut down and won’t restart automatically

  • created: The container was created but not yet started

Container Details View

The Container Details View contains more information about a single container, such as container logs, configurations, and environment variables.

• To open the Container Details View, click a container in the container list of the System Container View.

The following tabs are available:

Container Logs View

The Container Logs View shows the logging message of the selected container.

Available options in the toolbar:

• Download CSV: Save the log entries that are displayed in the list as comma-separated values as a CSV file (up to 500 lines). For a complete log, use the Download Raw Logs option.

• Download Raw Logs: Save the full log output (including control characters) for in-depth issue resolution. In the log file, each log line is prepended by some control characters. The exact stream format is described in the Docker API documentation (https://docs.docker.com/reference/).

  • Raw log formatting: Each line is prepended by an eight byte header and another two byte marker. For text file processing, the first 10 bytes of each line should be ignored.

• Refresh Logs: Reload the displayed log messages.

• Filter: Apply filters to narrow down displayed entries. Available options: Debug, Error, Fatal, Info, Trace, Warn.

• Start Time/End Time: Select a date and time to filter the logs by time range.
