You can use the tools such as Apache WSRP Open Source to find out WSRP services the Producer offering.
Producers with an IBM WebSphere Portal Producer can obtain this information by exporting all provided portlets on their Producer portal by using xmlaccess.
subtag Attribute for the subtag Description servlet remotehandle As provided by the Producer servlet wsrpproducerref ID of the Producer After successful integration, the remote portlets are available in the portal administration. They are handled in the same manner as local portlets.
You can consume a WSRP service only if you work online and can access the Producer's WSDL document.
The WSRP implementation of the portal does not yet make use of public WSRP services registries, such as UDDI, to discover and consume WSRP services. Instead, it uses the discovery mechanism of WSRP services that is defined in the WSRP standard to obtain a list and descriptions of the WSRP services that a certain Producer provides.
An integrated portlet is always treated as a standard API compliant portlet.
To delete integrated remote portlets, use the Manage Web Modules portlet.
