3.7.2 Checking Remote Control Status

The system administrator can check the execution status of remote control.

Checking the latest status

Follow the procedure below:

Start the Management Console.

From the CT List, select the smart device for which the execution status of remote control is to be checked.

The latest remote control status will be displayed in Remote control in the CT List.
The statuses below will be displayed depending on the remote control operation processed.
If multiple remote control operations are executed, the status of the remote control operation executed last will be displayed. Even if lock or wipe was executed after a failed unlock operation, the status of the last remote control operation will be displayed.

Remote control operation	Status
Lock/Unlock	Requesting lock Locking Lock completed Requesting unlock Unlock completed
Delete data	Requesting data deletion Deleting data Data deletion completed
Wipe	Requesting wipe Wiping Wipe completed
Clear passcode	Requesting passcode clear Clearing passcode Passcode clear completed
Not implemented	Blank

For any operation other than the one with a blank in Remote control, the execution status of remote control can be checked. Refer to "Checking detailed status" for details.

The timing with which the remote control status is reflected

The timing with which the following remote control status is reflected in Remote control is shown below:

Requesting ...: When remote operations are set in the Management Console
...ing: When the smart device (agent) obtains policy (*1)
... completed: When the log for successful remote control on the smart device (agent) is received by the Smart Device Relay Server, and stored in the database (*1)

*1: The CT List in the Management Console needs to be refreshed. Refer to "CT List" for details.

Note

Even if the remote control operation is successful, the old status may remain if communication between the Management Server, Smart Device Relay Server, and smart device (agent) fails. If this happens, execute remote control again, or clear the displayed status (refer to "Clearing the displayed status" for details).

Checking detailed status

Follow the procedure below:

Start the Management Console.

From the CT List, right-click the smart device on which remote control status will be checked, and click Remote control > Show status.

The Show Remote Control Status window will be displayed.

Clearing the displayed status

Once remote control is executed, the execution datetime will be displayed until the status is cleared.

If remote operation on the smart device has completed, click Clear to clear the status (the status in Remote control in the CT List will also be cleared).

The status cannot be cleared while a remote control operation is in progress. Clicking Clear while a remote control operation is in progress outputs the following message:

[MGFW-ERR011] Cannot clear the displayed status of remote control processing because it is in progress. Clear the displayed status after all remote control processing is completed.

Messages displayed in the Show Remote Control Status window

Depending on the remote control operation processed, various messages are displayed in the Show Remote Control Status window.
The messages displayed are shown below:
