User Access to Platform Flow Manager

dgower — Wed, 17 Feb 2016 17:13:24 GMT

In our current environment, schedulers access Flow Manager by remoting into our schedule server, which also happens to be our GRID master node. Does anyone know of or use a method for access that does not require end users remoting into the server?

TIA

There's a standalone workstation/client installation of Flow Manager/Calendar Editor. You just have to connect put in standard connection info (server name and port) for it to work right.

I think it's a separate executable that you need to download from SAS, not the full version typically included in the depot under "third_party". Sorry for not being more specific, it's been a while since I installed mine

The installer I have is called "pm9.1.0.0_pinstall_sas_client" but I can't seem to find it anywhere when I Google.

I stand, corrected. The client install is actually in my newest depot.

third_party\Platform_Process_Manager\9_13\Windows

It's called "pm9.1.3.0_pinstall_sas_client"

Thanks again, Timmy. I found the same in our depot, installed it, and it works.
