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 |

Install an Ubuntu patch
Before a patch can be installed on a managed server, it must be imported into HPE Server Automation and its status must be Available. Administrators who have the required permissions can install patches that are marked Limited.
You must have permissions to manage patches. To obtain these permissions, contact your system administrator. See the SA 10.51
You can perform the installation by explicitly selecting patches and servers, and you can install a patch even if the patch policy exception is Never Install.
To install a patch on a managed server or device group:
- In the navigation pane, select Devices > All Manages Servers (or Device Groups).
- In the content pane, select a server or device group.
- From the Show drop-down list, select Patches Recommended by Vendors.
-
Right-click on a patch which has the content imported and select Install.
The first step of the Install Patch window appears: Servers and Device Groups.
For instructions on each step, see the following sections:
- Set Ubuntu install options
- Set reboot options for an Ubuntu patch installation
- Specify install scripts for an Ubuntu patch installation
- Schedule an Ubuntu patch installation
- Set up email notifications for an Ubuntu patch installation
- Preview an Ubuntu patch installation
- View job progress of an Ubuntu patch installation
After you have completed a step, click Next to advance to the next step. Before you click Start Job, you can return to a completed step to make changes by clicking on it in the list of steps.
-
When you are ready to launch the installation job, click Start Job.
After you launch the job, you cannot change its parameters, even if the job is scheduled to run at a later time.
If the Install Patch window remains open until the job completes, Ubuntu Patch Management updates the Patch Compliance column in the All Managed Servers window with the revised compliance count (in parenthesis) for affected servers. Press F5 or select Refresh from the View menu to update information in the Patch Preview pane.
See Remediate patch policies for another method of installing a patch.
