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 |

Track patches on managed servers
When a server is brought under management by SA, the SA Agent installed on the server registers the server’s hardware and software configuration with SA. This information includes installed software and patches, is recorded in the SA Library. The SA Agent repeats this registration every 24 hours.
When a new patch is issued, you can use Server Automation to immediately identify the servers that require patching. The SA Library stores patches and other software. You can access the SA Library from the SA Client to install patches on the appropriate servers.
After a server is brought under management, you should install all required patches. If you install a patch manually, Server Automation does not have data about that patch until the next SA Agent registration. If you install a patch manually, it can take up to 24 hours until the data about that server in the SA Library is up-to-date.
Whenever you install or uninstall software or patches with Server Automation, however, SA immediately updates the information about the server in the SA Library.
