The Orchestrator client is a desktop application that allows you to import packages, run and schedule workflows, and manage user permissions. If you install vCenter Server, the Orchestrator client is installed silently on your system. You can install the Orchestrator client on a 32-bit machine.
You can use the standalone Orchestrator client installer on a 32-bit machine only.
