Configure the Coach portlets for WebSphere Lombardi Edition and WebSphere Business Process Manager

Two Coach portlets are already installed in WebSphere Portal: one for use on a dynamic portal page and the other on a portal page. Both Coach portlets offer the same function in both page contexts. When a WebSphere Lombardi Edition task and WebSphere Business Process Manager task is selected in the Unified Task List portlet it displays the corresponding coach in the Coach portlet.

The Coach portlets included with the Unified Task List portlet must be configured with the specifics of the WebSphere Lombardi Edition server and WebSphere Business Process Manager server host name and port before they can be used.
