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.
Words and Phrases
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| 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 |

Deprecations
This section lists deprecated platforms, features, and agents for this release as well as previously deprecated items that have now reached the end of their support lifecycle.
Note When a platform/agent/feature is identified as deprecated for a release, it means that you (the SA customer) are considered notified of its future removal. Deprecated features are still fully supported in the release they are deprecated in, unless specified otherwise. The intent is that deprecated features or platforms will have support removed in the next major or minor SA release. However, eventual removal is at the discretion of HPE.

This allows you to also download content for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL). For more information on how to set up and use the HPE SA Red Hat importer tool, see Using the Server Automation Red Hat Importer. |

Application server From SA 10.50, the Application Server used by the Web Services Data Access Engine (Twist) component migrates from Weblogic to Wildfly (JBoss). Hence, any PSO customizations that are Weblogic-specific will be lost in case of an upgrade. Standard customizations (memory settings, logging levels) in twist_custom.conf are preserved. |
10.50 | |
|
Agent upgrade tool The Agent Upgrade Tool that is run from the OPSH shell and allows upgrading the agents on managed servers is no longer supported. As of SA 10.0, a replacement APX was introduced that has several improvements and can be run from the SA Client. |
10.22 | |
| JAVA RMI clients
Java RMI Clients (built previous to SA 10.50) will not be able to connect to SA 10.50 cores. To fix the issue, you need to use the latest opswclient.jar (from SA 10.5x) and run the RMI client with Java 8. Note that opswclient.jar in SA 10.50 is not backward compatible, that is, you cannot use it to connect to an SA 10.2x (or older) core. |
