The My Orchestrator view in the Orchestrator client interface summarizes the most recent activities on the
Orchestrator server, such as recently modified elements, pending and running workflows, running policies,
completed workflows, and workflows that are waiting for user interaction.

importing a package, and setting root access rights.
The My Orchestrator view presents the following tabs.
