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 |

Set reboot options
To minimize the downtime that server reboots can cause, you can control when servers will and will not be rebooted. You can adopt the vendor's reboot assignments, reboot a server each time a patch is installed on it, completely suppress all server reboots, or postpone reboots until all patches are installed.
When you are selecting reboot options in the Install Patch window, HPE recommends that you use the HP-UX reboot recommendations, which is the “Reboot servers as specified by patch properties” option. If you cannot use the HP-UX reboot setting, select the single reboot option, which is the “Do not reboot servers until all patches are installed” option.
The following options determine whether the servers are rebooted after the patch is installed. These options apply only to the job launched by the Install Patch window. They do not change the Reboot Required option, which is on the Install Parameters tab of the patch properties window. Except for the first option, the following options override the Reboot Required option.
-
Reboot servers as specified by patch properties
By default, the decision to reboot depends on the Reboot Required option of the patch properties. The server is rebooted only once at the end. This is done to satisfy the patch dependency. In effect, the option works as the third option which is to not reboot servers until all patches are installed
-
Reboot servers after each patch install
Even if the Reboot Required option of the patch properties is not set, reboot the server. If multiple patches are installed, the server will be rebooted only once after all patches are installed.
-
Do not reboot servers until all patches are installed
If the Reboot Required option is set for some selected patches but not for others, the server is rebooted one time after all patches are installed. If the Reboot Required option is not set for any of the selected patches, the server is not rebooted.
-
Suppress all server reboots
Even if the Reboot Required option of the patch properties is set, do not reboot the server. (Because of vendor settings, some patches ignore the suppress option and force a reboot.)
To set reboot options:
- In the Install Patch window, click Next to advance to the Pre & Post Actions step.
- Select one of the Rebooting Options.
- Click Next to go to the next step or click Cancel to close the Install Patch window.
