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 |

Change Password, Name
Only NNMi administrators can add and delete accounts and change NNMi User Accounts and User Groups.
- If configuring NNMi to store user names and passwords in the NNMi database, use the following instructions.
- If configuring NNMi to use an external User Authentication Method (passwords stored outside of the NNMi database), see Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) to Control NNMi Access or X.509 Certificates to Control NNMi Access.
Tip NNMi administrators can also use the Security Wizard or command line to complete this task. See Create and Delete User Accounts Using the Security Wizard or nnmsecurity.ovpl.
You must Delete a User Account, and then recreate the account mapping (see NNMi Configuration Settings to Control NNMi Access).
Note If you are not using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or X.509 Certificates to manage NNMi users, User Accounts assigned to the following User Groups can change their password using File → Change Password: NNMi Administrators, NNMi Level 2 Operators, and NNMi Level 1 Operators (with more limited access privileges than Level 2 Operators).
-
Navigate to the User Accounts view.
- From the Workspaces navigation panel, select the Configuration workspace.
- Expand Security.
- Select User Accounts.
- Double-click the row representing the account you want to edit.
-
Locate the Password attribute and edit the Password value.
Type any amount of printable alpha-numeric characters or symbols.
- Retype the new password.
-
Click Save and Close. NNMi immediately implements your changes.
Note To change a User Group to User Account assignment, you first delete the User Account mapping. If you change the User Account or User Group configuration for a user who is currently signed into the NNMi console, the change does not take effect until the next time the user signs in. By default, the NNMi timeout limit is 18 hours. If a user has not signed out within 18 hours, NNMi forces the user to sign out. To change the Console Timeout value, see Configure the NNMi User Interface
