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 |

Communication between the server and the SA Core
The server agent communicates with the SA core to provide information about the server to the core and to receive commands from the core.
- The server agent gathers information about the server and sends it to the SA core. The SA core stores this information about all managed servers.
- When you initiate an action on the server — for example, a software installation or removal, a patch installation, a software or hardware configuration change, an audit or any other server management action — the SA core sends a command to the server agent. The server agent receives the command from the core and initiates the corresponding actions on the server.
The server agent opens a secure communication channel to the core, presents its IP address and public-key certificate for authentication purposes. If properly authenticated, the agent updates the information about the server in the SA core.
