The Deployment Portal is the home page for Deployment Solution. It contains
several smaller windows that provide a summary of your deployment environment.
You can find the portal under the Home menu in the console. You can also change
the size of and collapse the details for some of the windows on the portal.
The portal also provides a way to access the most common Deployment pages and
processes through the slide-out panel. You can access the slide-out panel by
mousing over the > icon at the far left of the portal page. You can get to the same
pages that you can access from the Deployment Portal in other ways. However,
the portal provides a faster and more convenient way to access those pages from
one place.
