Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Overview tab for service components
The Edit Component Overview tab allows you to modify attributes of a service component, including its Display Name, Description, Processing Order, and Consumer Visible and Pattern settings. For more information about these properties, see Edit a service component and Create a Component Type.
Tasks
-
Edit - If a field is editable, enter data or select/clear a check box.
For a published design, you cannot edit the following attributes:
- Display Name — The name you provide for the service component.
- Description — The description you provide for the service component.
- Processing Order (default value is 1, minimum value is 1, maximum value is 99) — Select a number to specify the deployment processing order for this service component relative to its sibling service components (that is, service components who share the same parent). Service components are processed in ascending order during service deployment and in descending order during undeployment.
- Image — An image appears for the component. Click Change Image, as desired. The Select Image dialog appears, allowing you to choose from a variety of available images or click Upload Image to add your own image.
- Consumer Visible (the default is false) — Select Visible to specify that this service component is visible in the . De-select it to specify that the service component will not be visible. Service component properties and lifecycle actions that have been configured to be visible in the will only be displayed in the if the associated service component is itself configured to be visible. The visibility of a service component does not affect visibility of its child service components, and it is not necessary for a parent of a service component to be visible for the child component to be visible in the .
- Pattern (the default is false) —Select this box to mark the service component as a pattern. This indicates that the service component will not be automatically processed by the lifecycle engine. When you create a pattern service component, you must also create a Clone Pattern action in the parent service component. For example, the out-of-the-box component type, Server, is typically marked as a pattern, and its parent service component, Server Group, includes the Clone Pattern action. At subscription time, the Clone Pattern action creates one or more service component instances from this service component pattern. A pattern component can have direct children, which are not patterns. When a pattern component contains a direct child component, the Clone Pattern action creates one or more instances of the pattern including the child component.
A validation error is displayed in the designer when a parent-child relationship is established between a pattern service component and its parent component if the Clone Pattern action is not created in the parent service component.
- A validation warning is displayed when the service design has a pattern component whose parent component does not have the Clone Pattern action.
- A validation error is displayed when the service design has a pattern component whose parent component has a Clone Pattern action that does not have a value in the “Name of the Property for Service Component Count” property field.
- A validation error is displayed when the service design has a pattern component whose parent component has a Clone Pattern action that does not have a value in the “Name of the Property for Service Component Count” property field or has a value that does not point to the name of a property on the component.
You can identify a service component that is marked as a pattern because its icon appears with a grid-like background, as shown below.
If a design that is in an upgrade path, is upgradable from a previous version of the design, and the component existed in that prior version, you cannot edit the following attributes:
- Processing Order
- Pattern
- Save — Click Done to save any changes and exit the dialog.
