The workers page lists all configured workers and allows you to perform a number of actions or add new workers. For a list of all available actions, see Actions below.

The list of workers display the worker status, one of:

  • ACTIVE: An Active worker has not reported any issues with its configuration or the configuration or state of its crypto token.
  • OFFLINE: An offline worker has issues with its configuration of any of its dependencies. For example, its crypto token may not be active.
  • DISABLED: A worker disabled in its configuration will not handle any requests until it is enabled again.
  • (blank): If the global property "DISABLE_WORKERS_PAGE_STATUS_CHECK" is set to true then the status checks on all workers will be skipped on the Workers page and that will result in every single worker status being blank.

Click a worker in the list to open the Worker Page for the worker, displaying information about its state and configuration.
