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. |

Component characteristics
The Characteristics tab is visible for concrete components.
Characteristics describe a component and must be used in combination with capabilities. For example, an Apache 2.4 Web Server concrete component can define support for the following characteristics:
- Apache Web Server
- Apache Web Server 2.x
- Apache Web Server 2.4
If this component supports the Web Server capability, a service designer can include a Web Server capability in a design and specify that the design requires the "Apache Web Server 2.4" characteristic. This allows a design containing the Apache 2.4 Web Server component (or any other Web Server components supporting this characteristic) to be chosen as part of provisioning the design.
A component should be associated with a capability when supported characteristics are configured. For more information, see Component capability.
