Create a New Portal

When you create a new portal, you are creating an empty portal shell to which you can add as many desktops (versions of the portal) as you need. You can then entitle specific users with access to the Desktops. Each portal is associated with a Web Application that contains all of the resources required to run portals on the web. For more information, see the Overview of Portal Management.

To create a new portal:

1. In the Portal Management tools, use the drop-down list above the Portal Resource tree to select a portal web application.

Note: If you do not know which portal application to choose, consult with the developer who created the portal you are trying to expose.

2. Select Portals in the Portal Resource tree.
3. Click Create New Portal in the Editor Pane.
4. Fill in the portal application properties. Field descriptions appear beneath each configurable field in the Editor pane.
5. Click Save. Look for the new portal and portal resources in the Portal Resource tree.

You can now add desktops to your portal.
