Welcome page from where you can access the tenant app features within the same user interface. This
feature provides easy accessibility without having to access the tenant app in a separate browser and
with no change in the functionality of the tenant app. This is an optional feature, however, you can still
continue to use the tenant app as a stand-alone UI.

After running the command, log in to vCloud Director user interface with the following browser URL to
access the Operations Manager plug-in.
