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.

What's new in Server Automation 10.51

Server Automation 10.51 includes the following new features, enhancements, and support changes:

Features

Feature Description

Migration to OpenJDK

Feature	Description
Migration to OpenJDK	Oracle JDK has been migrated to OpenJDK. Now, SA will run its Cores and Clients using OpenJDK.
Integration with Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)	SA can now connect to a WSUS server on your network to retrieve Microsoft patches from a central Windows patching repository. This adds an alternative workflow to the standard way of importing Windows patches from HPELN and Microsoft's offline catalog of updates. For tightly secured environments that cannot access the internet, switch SA to the new WSUS patching mode to pull in Windows updates from a custom WSUS repository in your network. The new WSUS patching option is available under Patch Administration > Patch settings and it connects SA to a Web service that you deploy on the WSUS machine. The SA-WSUS Web service connection supports both HTTP and HTTPS requests. Your selected patching mode applies to all the managed servers in the SA mesh. This means that you cannot target only specific servers for WSUS patching and keep others under Offline Catalog patching. Note The `populate-opsware-update-library` and the `live-network-connector` scripts are still specific to Microsoft Offline Catalog patching and do not run in WSUS patching mode. For more information on the WSUS patching mode, see Importing the Windows patch database from WSUS in the SA 10.51 Use section.
SELinux support for RHEL 6.8 and RHEL 7.x	SA Agents running on RHEL 7.x managed servers now integrate with Systemd service. To use SA SELinux policies on RHEL 6.8 and RHEL 7.x managed servers, update the SA Agent to the 10.51 version. SA Agents using Systemd benefit from separate Start/Stop commands. For more information, see Starting and stopping the SA Agent in the SA 10.51 Use section.
