Using the Status Bar

The Status Bar at the bottom of the main NEXUS IC window provides real-time system and session information. It includes:

• The database server you are connected to

• The name of the database you are connected to

• The number of currently connected users

• The number of active jobs. This refers to the number of background jobs currently running (e.g., imports, reports). For more information, see Job Management Console.

• An estimate of how fast the connection to this database server is (latency)

• The memory used/available. When memory available is small compared to memory used, you are running low. In this circumstance, NEXUS IC may start clearing parts of its cache in order to avoid running out of memory. You can force a complete emptying of cache by closing the application and restarting.

• Software Version

• Database schema number

You can hover the mouse over several items in the status bar to reveal additional information through tooltips.

Tip

You can right-click on the data shown in the status bar and click Copy to Clipboard to copy the tooltip content.

You can toggle the status bar on/off using the Database ‣ Show/Hide Status Bar menu option.

Job Management Console

When a job is initiated - such as an import, report generation, or video parsing - a blue ribbon appears above the Status Bar. This ribbon provides:

• Live job progress

• Options to dismiss the job

• Access to download artifacts (if available)

You can open the Job Management Console in two ways:

• Click the number of active jobs in the Status Bar.

• Click the number of undismissed jobs in the blue ribbon above the Status Bar.

In this dialog, you can view more detailed information on each job’s progress, including jobs that are currently running or have been dismissed. These jobs may include imports, reports or video parsing tasks.

The Console includes a toolbar that allows you to interact with jobs. The functionality of each button varies depending on the job type. The table below outlines the behaviour of each toolbar button across different job types:

Toolbar Button	Report Jobs	Import Jobs	Video Parsing Jobs
View	Allows you to download the generated report.	Shows the import summary, errors, and/or warnings.	Shows the completion time and any information, warning, or error messages.
Save Artifacts	Does not have any artifacts.	Allows you to save the source import files (csv or xlsx)	Does not have any artifacts.
Dismiss	Hides the blue ribbon notification above the Status Bar.	Hides the blue ribbon notification above the Status Bar.	Hides the blue ribbon notification above the Status Bar.
Abort	Aborts the report job if possible.	Aborts the import job. The import job saves data incrementally, so aborting will only stop further data from being imported into the database.	Aborts the video parsing job if possible.
