You start the weboperator Web view from the Orchestrator client.
Procedure
1 | From the drop-down menu in the Orchestrator client, select Administer. |
2 | Click the Web Views view.
The weboperator Web view and any other Web views that you have imported into Orchestrator appear.
|
3 | Right-click weboperator and select Publish. |
4 | Open a browser and go to http://orchestrator_server:8280.
In the URL, orchestrator_server is the DNS name or IP address of the Orchestrator server, and 8280 is the default port number where Orchestrator publishes Web views.
|
5 | On the Orchestrator home page, click Web View List. |
6 | Click weboperator. |
7 | Log in using your Orchestrator user name and password. |
8 | Expand the hierarchical list of workflows to navigate through the workflows in the Orchestrator library. |

You can use the weboperator Web view to run workflows on objects in your inventory from a Web browser rather than from the Orchestrator client.
What to do next
If you only need a Web view to access the inventory and run workflows, the standard weboperator Web view should meet your requirements. If you require more complex functionality from a Web view, you can use the Web components and default Web view template that Orchestrator provides to develop custom Web views.
