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 |

Secure Implementation and Deployment
This section provides information on implementing and deploying the Suite Management Portal container-based platform in a secure manner.
Technical system landscape
The Suite Management Portal platform is a container that integrates with other Suites. The Suite Management Portal container-based platform is written in Java and JavaScript and Go.
For more information about typical deployment schemes and options, see Overview of the ITOM Platform.
Security in Suite Management Portal container-based platform configurations
The Suite Management Portal platform configurations may be deployed in the following three implementations.
- Single mode.
- Distributed mode 1 (one master node and multiple worker nodes).
- Distributed mode 2 (multiple master nodes and multiple worker nodes).
All of these implementations share the same basic out-of-the-box security configuration options.
- In an out-of-the-box default installation, the Transport Layer Security/Secure Socket Layer (TLS/SSL) security is enabled between the browser and the Suite Management Portal platform server by default.
- In an out-of-the-box default installation, the Suite Management Portal platform requires users to enter username and password credentials to gain access to the application.
External Authentication
With additional configuration, it is possible to supplement or replace the default authentication & authorization provider for the Suite Management Portal platform by using a variety of industry-standard protocols and tools such as LDAP and Single Sign-On.
Common Security Considerations
The Suite Management Portal platform can only be deployed on supported operating systems.
HPE recommends to follow vendor-provided best practices and security hardening guides for each of the third-party components used in support of your Suite Management Portal platform deployment, which includes Docker, Kubernetes, Vault and Nginx, NFS. Below are some resources that can serve as a starting point for researching these recommended security considerations:
