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 |

Managing the Server Agent
Server Agent Management topics describe the SA Agent and how to install it.
The SA Agent is software that is installed on most servers and it enables SA to manage your servers. There are four ways to install the agent on your server:
- By scanning IP addresses to locate agentless servers. Use the Devices tab, and Servers > SA Agent Installation. See Discovering agentless servers and Installing the SA Agent for more information.
- By locating agentless servers among your managed servers. Use the Devices tab, and Servers > All Managed Servers. See Installing the SA Agent.
- By locating agentless servers managed by your virtualization services. Use the Virtualization tab. See Installing the SA Agent for more information. See also Virtualization management.
- By using the agent installation command. See Agent installation and upgrade utilities.
Note
SA does not install a server agent on VMware ESXi servers. Instead, SA manages ESXi servers through a VMware vCenter virtualization service. For more information, see Virtualization management.
