Resolving the host name

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	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

Resolving the host name

All managed servers (those with agents) must be able to resolve unqualified Server Automation service names for the following components:

spin (Data Access Engine)

way (Command Engine)

theword (Software Repository)

If you need to ensure that one of these host names resolves correctly, contact your SA administrator to find out what qualified host name or IP address these service names should resolve to.

Try to ping the host. For example, execute the following command if you wanted to resolve the host name, way:

ping way

If the host name cannot resolve, you will get the following errors:

Linux/Solaris/AIX/HP-UX:

ping: unknown host way

Windows:

Ping request could not find host way. Please check the name and try again.

If the host name can resolve, you might get back various permutations of these types of messages (OS independent):

way is alive

pinging way (ip) with 32 bytes of data
