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 |

Retrieve the Solaris patch supplementary data file
SA retrieves information about Solaris patches from Oracle (from the patchdiag.xref file). However, SA provides valuable supplementary data about Solaris patches that you can obtain automatically from the HPE Live Network. When HPE updates this supplementary data, you can configure the HPE Live Network to automatically upload it to the SA Solaris patch database.
To obtain the supplementary data file when it is updated and upload it into the SA Library:
-
Obtain an HPE Passport ID from:
-
Log in to the HPE Live Network portal using your HPE Passport credentials:
-
The HPE Live Network connector (LNc) is installed on the core server where the SA Software Repository component is installed.
You can download the HPE Live Network Connector User Guide from the Live Network Connector community on the HPE Live Network at:
https://hpln.hpe.com/group/hp-live-network-connector
Click the Resources tab and open the Documentation folder.
-
On the system where the LNc is installed, run the following command to enable the Solaris patching service:
live-network-connector write-config --setting=content.solaris_patching=1
-
(Optional) To disable the Solaris patching service, run the same command with the value set to 0:
live-network-connector write-config --setting=content.solaris_patching=0
Alternatively, you can manually download the supplementary Solaris patch data file from the HPE Live Network and upload it to the SA database. See Manually download the Solaris patch supplementary data file.
