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.

Configure Basic Settings for a Node Group Map

The Basic Settings configuration determines general information about the Node Group map.

To establish Basic Settings for a Node Group Map:

Navigate to the Node Group Map Settings view.
Note You can also access the Node Group Map Settings form from any Node Group Map by using the File → Open Node Group Map Settings option.
1. From the workspace navigation panel, select the Configuration workspace.
2. Expand User Interface.
3. Select Node Group Map Settings .
4. Do one of the following:
  - To create a Node Group Map Settings definition, click the New icon.
  - To edit a Node Group Map Settings definition, double-click the row that represents the Node Group Map Settings definition you want to edit.
  - To delete a Node Group Map Settings definition, select a row and click the Delete button.
Establish the appropriate settings to identify Node Group and Refresh Settings information.
Click Save and Close to save and apply your changes.

Use the web browser’s refresh feature (F5 key on your keyboard) to immediately display changes made to Node Group Map Settings (for example, to update the Topology Maps workspace).

Basic Attributes
Attribute	Description
Node Group	Specifies which parent node group to display in the Node Group Map view. The contents of the parent node group include any nodes and Child Node Groups associated with it. NNMi displays any Child Node Groups of the selected parent Node Group as a hexagon on the map. The Expand Child in Parent Node Group Map attribute determines how a Child Node Group appears on the Node Group Map. Expand Child in Parent Node Group Map is disabled by default. If the Child Node Group has the Expand Child in Parent Node Group Map attribute disabled, the Child Node Group appears as a hexagon on the map as shown below: If any Child Node Group has the Expand Child in Parent Node Group Map attribute enabled, NNMi instead recursively displays each of the nodes in that Child Node Group on the map.
Quick Access Maps Ordering	Use this attribute to specify the order in which you want the Node Group map to appear in the Quick Access Maps folder. If you do not want this Node Group map to appear in the Quick Access Maps folder in the Topology Maps workspace, leave the value blank. See Views Available in NNMi for more information about the maps provided in the Topology Maps workspace. To apply your Quick Access Maps Ordering configuration changes, sign out of the NNMi console. After restarting the console, your changes should take effect. Possible configuration changes include reordering a Node Group map view or adding a new Node Group map view to the Quick Access Maps folder.
Minimum NNMi Role to Save Map	Controls the minimum NNMi User Group required to save the map, for example after repositioning nodes in a Node Group Map. This value also controls the minimum User Group for configuring Node Group Map Settings. Only a User Account assigned to the NNMi Administrators User Group can set the Minimum NNMi Role to Save Map value. Possible values include: Administrator Operator Level 2 Operator Level 1 (with more limited access privileges than Level 2) The default value is Administrator. See Determine which NNMi User Group to Assign for more information about NNMi roles. A user with any NNMi Role can initially reposition nodes on a Node Group Map view. However, unless your user name is assigned to the required minimum NNMi Role, you cannot save the new node locations on the map. After being saved, these node positions are seen by any user opening this Node Group Map.
Map Refresh Interval	Specify the Refresh Interval you want to use in days, hours, minutes, and seconds. By default, the Refresh Interval is 30 seconds. This interval is used to set the Refresh Status interval for this map if it is used.
Maximum Number of Displayed Nodes	Specifies the maximum number of nodes to be displayed on the Node Group map. This number applies to the total number of nodes within the Node Group, including the nodes in any Child Node Groups displayed on the map.
Maximum Number of Displayed End Points	Specifies the maximum number of end points to be displayed on a map. If maps are taking longer than expected to display, you might need to re-adjust this number.
Multiconnection Threshold	Use this attribute to change the number of connections that must exist between two Node Groups before NNMi displays the connections as one thick line (known as a multiconnection) on a Node Group map. Note the following: The value you enter overrides the Multiconnection Threshold set using the Default Map Settings. If this setting is blank, NNMi uses the Multiconnection Threshold value configured in Default Map Settings. When this number of connections is reached, NNMi displays the connections as one thick line. To display the Interface objects and each connection, double-click the line representing the multiconnection.
Indicate Key Incidents	In the Node Group map, NNMi can enlarge the map symbol of any node associated with a Key IncidentIncidents with both: (1) Severity = other than Normal. (2) Correlation Nature = equal to Root Cause, Service Impact, Stream Correlation, Rate Stream Correlation, Info, or None.. Users can click the Indicate Key Incidents button in the map view toolbar to toggle this feature on and off (see Using the View Toolbars: Node Group Map Toolbar Icons): (on) = When the this Node Group map opens, NNMi enlarges any objects on a Node Group map that are Source Objects for a Key IncidentIncidents with both: (1) Severity = other than Normal. (2) Correlation Nature = equal to Root Cause, Service Impact, Stream Correlation, Rate Stream Correlation, Info, or None.. (For example, when viewing the Node Group map, NNMi enlarges any node on a Node Group map that has an open root cause incident associated with it.) (off) = When the this Node Group map opens, NNMi does not indicate the objects on a Node Group map that are Source Objects for a Key IncidentIncidents with both: (1) Severity = other than Normal. (2) Correlation Nature = equal to Root Cause, Service Impact, Stream Correlation, Rate Stream Correlation, Info, or None..
Include in Visio Export	Requires Network Node Manager iSPI Network Engineering Toolset Software (NNM iSPI NET). When enabled, NNMi includes this map when exporting all saved Node Group maps using the Tools → Visio Export→ Saved Node Group Maps option. When disabled, NNMi does not include this map when exporting all saved Node Group maps using the Tools → Visio Export → Saved Node Group Maps option.
