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 |

Actions: Execute a Launch Action (showMenuItem)
The showMenuItem command launches a Menu Item that has been configured as a Launch Action in NNMi. (See Configure Launch Actions for information about creating a Launch Action.)
To execute a Launch Action requesting something from NNMi:
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd=showMenuItem&key=<MenuItemKey>[&nodename=<hostname or IP_address>
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.
To execute a Launch Action requesting a script, application, or tool from your environment (not NNMi):
http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/<application>?<yourURLparameter1>=${<attribute>}&<yourURLparameter2>=${<attribute>}
Note To extend the NNMi environment with additional applications, you must deploy them into a separate web-server or application-server on the same or different physical server from where the NNMi web-server or application-server is installed. See the Network Node Manager Developer Toolkit for more information.
<serverName>
= the appropriate fully-qualified domain name
<portNumber>
= the appropriate port number
Tip After you specify a case-sensitive Hostname, the real-time results of the Launch Action appear.
Attribute | Values |
---|---|
MenuItemKey | The Unique Key used for the Menu Item configuration. See Configure Menu Item Basic Details for more information. |
nodename |
Optional. A DNS-resolvable hostname or IP address indicating the node on which the action should be executed. |
