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 |

Launch a Dashboard (showDashboard)
The showDashboard
command displays a subset of information available about an object in a graphical format.
To launch a particular dashboard, use the following URL:
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd=showDashboard...
Note If the NNMi Web server uses the https protocol, use https
instead of http
.
<serverName>
= the fully-qualified domain name of the NNMi management server (values allowed here are determined by the Enable URL Redirect setting in User Interface Configuration, see Configure the NNMi User Interface)
<portNumber>
= the NNMi HTTP port number
For a quick-reference list of all URL choices for launching NNMi, see Help → Documentation Library → Integrate NNMi Elsewhere with URLs. The Integrate NNMi Elsewhere with URLs page also contains a link to a list of sample URLs that you can copy/paste as a starting point.
Launch a dashboard to see information about a particular object such as node, interface, or IP address, etc. In the URL string, you must include one or more attributes that enable NNMi to find the specific object. If more than one object meets the criteria, NNMi opens the first one found. When designating more than one attribute, separate each with a semicolon character. For example:
Note If you copy/paste this URL, remove the spaces that were added for line-ending purposes in the documentation.
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& <object-type> &<object-specifier>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objtype=Node&nodename= <name>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objid=<objectID>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objuuid=<objectUUID>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objattrs=name=<name>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objattrs=hostname=<name>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objattrs=snmpAgent.agentSettings.managementAddress= <IP address>
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showDashboard& objattrs=systemName= <name>
Due to the Mozilla Firefox security implementation, launching an NNMi form with a URL has the following limitations:
- The Close button does not work.
- The File → Close menu item does not work.
- The Save and Close button saves data, but does not close the window.
- The File → Save and Close menu item saves data, but does not close the window.
Use the browser buttons to close the form.
