Installed portlets

This section provides information about portlets that are provided by WebSphere Portal. All portlets provided can be found in the <wp_root>/installableApps directory. Use the Install Portlets portlet to install these portlets. In addition, you can use the Install Portlets portlet to install or update local portlets in your portal. Portlets already deployed by the WebSphere Portal installation can be found in the <wp_root>/installedApps directory. See Portal administration for details on installing and managing portlets.

In addition to the portlets listed in this section, WebSphere Portal also provides several portlets used to administer the portal server. These can be found in the Adminstration tab of the portal. Documentation about these portlets can be found in the Adminstering your portal, Portal adminstration portlets section.

For more information, see Portal administration. For the most up-to-date information on portlets, including the latest portlets available for download, visit the IBM Workplace Solutions Catalog at the WebSphere Portal web site.
