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 |

Using the native Zypper to remediate RPM packages
The native tool Zypper is used to analyze and install the phase of the remediation process on the managed server.
Server requirements
In order to work with Zypper, your managed server must be SLES 11 GA or later. This option is automatically selected when the managed server is SLES 11 GA ++ (no other remediation options are provided for the selection). The installed zypper version can be identified by running the following command in the command line:
zypper –version
For complete SA support and compatibility information for this release, see the HPE Server Automation Support and Compatibility Matrix .
In the SLES service pack upgrade process, all rpm packages from upgrade software policy have to be marked with the option Install RPM only if an earlier version is installed. See Setting Installation and Update Options for an RPM for more information.
Zypper restrictions
Zypper does not support :
–nodeps command-line option, as RPM does. This option is ignored during remediation, and remediated packages are remediated as regular packages.
On SLES 11 GA, Zypper does not support installation of packages with an epoch that is not zero (0).
