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 |

Forwarding
The Forwarding tab is available for events for which ownership was transferred to an external manager. The information displayed in this tab is dynamically loaded from the external manager when the tab is opened. To load the latest information available from the external manager, click the Refresh button in the Forwarding tab.
For example, if your organization uses HPE Service Manager as a central service desk, you can transfer control of events from the Event Browser to HPE Service Manager. This is often the case when the OMi operator is not able to solve the problem and needs to assign the problem to an expert. HPE Service Manager creates an incident and returns the Incident ID to OMi. This is displayed in the Forwarding tab with additional information about the event available from the external manager.
Workspaces > Operations Console > <select a perspective>
In the Event Browser, open the Forwarding tab.
Learn More
The external manager server must be specified as a target in the Connected Servers manager.
If there is a problem connecting to the system to which you want to transfer control, the event forward request or event update synchronization request is held in a queue. If the request cannot be delivered to the target server within the specified time, it is automatically deleted from this queue.
To set the Event Forwarding Expiration time period, open the Event Synchronization Settings in Administration > Setup and Maintenance > Infrastructure Settings > Applications > Operations Management. The default value is 2 hours and the minimum value is 1 hour.
