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.
Words and Phrases
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|

cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Users
Service Management Automation uses an embedded Micro Focus Identity Manager (IdM) instance for user authentication. The users' authentication types include:
-
DB: User credentials are stored in IdM database.
-
FEDERATION: User credentials are stored in federated IdPs.
-
LDAP: User credentials are stored in LDAP servers.
Users management enables you to create users, sync users from IdM, and manage authorizations.
- Users added, modified, or deleted in IdM are updated in Suite Administration automatically by the synchronization job that runs once every 2 hours. You can also synchronize the users from IdM manually.
- Users created, modified, or deleted in LDAP server or federated IdP are updated in IdM automatically by the synchronization job that runs every 12 hours.
