The standard portal URL is http://host:port/wps/myportal, where /wps is a standard portal context
and /myportal is a standard personalized Home.
Procedure:
1. Click File > Preferences.
2. Click Home Portal Account.
3. In the Name field, note the preset Home Portal Account value.
4. In the Description field, type a descriptor, for example Home Portal Account.
5. In the server Type field, note the preset value.
6. In the Server field, type the Web address of your WebSphere Portal server, for example
http://abx8.ibm.com/wps.
Include the Portal context, for example /wps, when specifying the server URL, as shown below:
http://abx8.lotus.com:10038/wps is a valid server URL.
http://abx8.lotus.com:10038/ is not a valid server URL.
7. In the User name and Password fields, type your WebSphere Portal user name and password.
8. In the Home Portal URL field, type the WebSphere Portal server URL, for example
http://abx8.lotus.com:10038/wps/myportal.
Note: By default, this field is based on the value specified in the Server field above. For example, if
you specify a Server value of http://abx:10038/wps, the Home Portal URL field would automatically be
set to http://abx8.lotus.com:10038/wps/myportal. If your WebSphere Portal server is installed with a
personalized Home other than the default "myportal", you must override the default value in the Home
Portal URL field, for example http://abx8.lotus.com:10038/wps/myPortalSrv1. In this case, the
Personalized Home of your portal is myPortalSrv1.

schedule. Composite applications can update composite application definitions. Certain Eclipse features
can be updated by provisioning.
A composite application definition can reference one or more Eclipse features as application
