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 |

View properties of software resources in a software policy
Once you have added software resources to a policy you can view the properties of the software resource in the software policy. For example for a package you can view the install flags and information on the reboot option. For Windows Services you can view the list of services and for Windows patch you can view the install path, install flags, and the information on the reboot information.
You cannot edit the properties of the software resources in the software policy. To edit the properties for a software resource, you must open the specific software resource window and edit.
Only for RPM packages and scripts, you can edit some of the properties in a software policy. For scripts you can specify the command options in a software policy. For RPM packages you can set the installation and update options in a software policy. See Set installation and update options for a RPMfor more information.
To view the properties of a software resource in a software policy:
- From the navigation pane, select Library > By Type > Software Policies.
- From the content pane, select the policy and open it. The policy window appears.
- From the Views pane, select Policy Items. The policy items appear in the content pane.
- Select a policy item. The properties of that policy item appear in the details pane.
