Access the Planning Analytics Workspace administration tool remotely on Linux

By default you access the Planning Analytics Workspace administration tool from the computer on which it is installed. To access the administration tool from another computer, you can set the ADMINTOOL_IP environment variable.

About this task

This task applies to Planning Analytics Workspace Local installed on a Linux OS only.

Important: Running the Planning Analytics Workspace administration tool this way is not secure, so you might want to restrict access to specific remote IP addresses using the OS firewall.

Procedure

  1. In a terminal window, enter the following command: 
    export ADMINTOOL_IP=<ip address>
    Where <ip address> is the IP address of the computer that is running Planning Analytics Workspace Local.
  2. Run the Start.sh script.
  3. Access the administration tool from the remote computer by copying and pasting the address that is shown in the command or terminal window into a browser window on the remote computer.
