Opening consoles and clients by using the Launchpad
The Launchpad is a standard, single web interface for opening the various clients or consoles for IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server.
You can access the Launchpad by constructing the following URL:
https://<server>:<port>/ibm/iis/launchpad
If clustering is not set up, the server variable is the name of the computer where you have installed your application server. The default port number is 9443.
If clustering is set up, server:port is the name or IP address and the port of the front-end dispatcher, either the web server or the load balancer. Do not use the host name and port of a particular cluster member.
Note: If you installed IBM Information Server Enterprise
Search, do not use any port, and use the Enterprise Search server to access the Launchpad:
