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 relationships

Relationships in topology designs define dependencies between components and also impact how a design is provisioned. For example, imported Chef components require a server in order to be provisioned. Therefore, all imported Chef components are created with an outgoing relationship to the server capability, ensuring that a server is provisioned before the Chef component.

When importing new components, you may need to define new relationships. Some relationships are created for you automatically at import time, such as the Chef component dependency on server discussed above. If there are additional dependencies, define them manually in this tab.

Tasks

View the following information about the relationships:

Direction - Outgoing or Incoming.
Target or Source Component - Click the component name of the target or source component to open the Overview tab for that component.
Display Name - The display name of the relationship.

Use the corresponding icon or button to:

Create or edit a relationship.
- You cannot create or edit incoming relationships.
- You cannot edit a component that is an abstract component or a capability.
- After a component is used in a design, you cannot add a new required relationship or make an existing relationship required. You can only change its display name and description.
  
  Provide the following information for a relationship:

Item	Description
Target Component	Select the target component for the relationship from the Select Component dialog, which provides a list of available components.
Display Name	The name for the relationship.
Description	The description for the relationship.
Maximum Outgoing Relationships From Source	The number of instances of the target component that a single instance of the source component can be connected to.
