You can create a quick access tool for an existing workflow in the Command Center. The quick access tool can be executed directly from any associated servers.
Note
By default, newly installed clients block executables that run outside the installation folder when called from admin-based machines (CommServer, WebServer, WorkflowEngine, or AppMgrlite). The recommended approach is to provide target machine credentials so the client runs under those credentials. If credentials cannot be provided, configure one of the following additional settings on the target machine:
-
sAdminWhiteListPaths - Whitelist specific folder paths
-
sAdminWhiteListBinaries - Whitelist specific executable file names
-
nLimitedAdminAccess - Disable the security feature entirely
Important: Settings with the category Local must be manually entered directly on the target machine. As a safeguard, they cannot be added from the Command Center interface.
For detailed configuration steps and additional information, see Coordinate application tasks with pre-process and post-process scripts.
