Ok, through trial and error while following the instructions for "Building from 
src", I figured out that you need to run the "mvn install tomcat:run-war" from 
the oodt-src/pcs/opsui directory.  This ends up starting tomcat so you can then 
go to https://localhost:8080/pcs-opsui to bring it up the web page.  But, I 
discovered a couple of things while doing this.

You'll have to be patient with me here, I am not at all familiar with tomcat, 
webapps, or any of the configuration files it is going to be looking for at 
runtime. 

When I built OODT, I put the source in a "oodt-src" directory, and I deployed 
oodt in a "oodt" directory. I ran the opsui from the "oodt-src" directory tree, 
but it was looking for files in the deployed directory tree. I don't want to 
run anything out of my source directory, I only want to run things out of my 
deployed directory.  So, how do I actually 'deploy' the opsui so that I can run 
it from my deployed directory tree? There is no tar.gz file in the opsui/target 
directory that I can just unpack into the deployed directory.  So what should I 
do?

I also discovered that there seems to be a lot of webapps that I knew nothing 
about.  I discovered the web-grid webapp by accident when I ran "mvn install 
tomcat:run-war" from the top-level oodt-src directory and grid was the first 
directory it came to where it found a war file to run. And it used port 8080. 
So I went to http://localhost:8080/web-grid to see what it was.  And it did not 
tell me anything about what it actually is. So, how do I find out what all the 
web apps are and what they do?  Are they all already part of the opsui? Or, are 
they all separate apps like web-grid seemed to be?
