About the MWS Admin View
The MWS Admin view of Software AG Designer enables you to connect to multiple instances of My webMethods Server as a system administrator. To work with a My webMethods Server instance in the MWS Admin view, the server instance must be running. After you add a server to the view, you can perform the following basic operations on the server resources:
Action
Description
Browse
Opens My webMethods Server in an Eclipse browser window and enables you to browse server resources.
Refresh
