Accessing the Swing-based version of Grid Management Pages through Java Web Start

You can access the Swing-based version of the Grid Management Pages through a Java Web Start component.

Note: The Java Web Start client can only be used on platforms which support a graphical user interface.

To access the Grid Management Pages through Java Web Start

  1. In a supported browser, go to http(s)://server:port/grid/info.html where server is the name of the server hosting the grid and port is the HTTP or HTTPS port for the grid Default Router or Administrative Router.
  2. In the Grid Information section, click the Web Start link.
  3. If you are prompted to run the program to install the Java Web Start component, respond to the prompts. If your choice is to save the file, click Save and select a location on your computer to save the file. You can also right-click on the link and select your browser's option for downloading files:"Save target as..." on Microsoft Edge, "Save Link As..." Google Chrome, and "Download Linked File As..." on Apple Safari.
  4. Double-click the downloaded file to run the Java Web Start. The file is a .jnlp file, so if your computer does not recognize the file type, you can browse to the Java javaws.exe file and use that to open the file.
