Accessing the WebDashboard in a Browser

To view the WebDashboard, you open a particular URL in a web browser. The URL is determined by the system administrator who installed and configured the SIMULIA Execution Engine and the WebDashboard.

  1. Contact your SIMULIA Execution Engine administrator and verify that the WebDashboard has been installed for the appropriate SIMULIA Execution Engine.
  2. Open the following URL in a browser: 

    http://hostname:9080/webdashboard

    where hostname is the name of the system running the WebDashboard.

    Note: The port number is dependent on the installation of WebSphere and could be different, especially if more than one WebSphere is installed on the system. You can confirm the port number by checking the WC_defaulthost port setting under Servers / Application servers / server1 / Ports in the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console for the WebDashboard. See About New Profile Port Numbers for more information.

  3. When prompted, log into the WebDashboard using a username/password combination that is valid for the corresponding SIMULIA Execution Engine.

    Note: Logged in user with fiperadmin role will have access to all the features of WebDashboard whereas user with fiperuser or fiperstation role will have limited access only.
