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 |

Generate a Direct Link – Scenario
This scenario describes how to generate a direct link to email the URL of a specific CI to another person.
Jane Harrison is a senior engineer in the ABC Software company. She has encountered a problematic CI in a view she has created. She wants to inform Henry Jones, who is working with the same view through HPE ServiceCenter, about the problematic CI. Since the view Jane has created contains many hundreds of CIs, she decides to email Henry the URL of the CI so that he does not have to spend a lot of time searching for that specific CI.
In IT Universe Manager, Jane selects Generate Direct Link from the Edit menu. On the Select Command page, she selects Open in context links and then the Show view option, and clicks Next.
On the Direct Link Parameters — Show View page, she selects the view she created, the problematic CI, and View topology as the mode in which Henry should open the CI. When the URL is created, she emails Henry the link to the problematic CI.
For details, see Generate Direct Link Wizard.
