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 |

ZIP packages
The SA Client adds support for ZIP packages on the following platform families:
- Windows
- Unix
ZIP packaging
When you install a ZIP package on a server, the files are automatically extracted and saved to a directory that you select; otherwise, a default directory is used. SA keeps track of all ZIP packages that it has installed, which prevents you from installing a ZIP package with the same name twice.
A ZIP package has no limits or restrictions on the size, format, or number of files that it contains.
SA supports ZIP encapsulation for application package files that were built using other standalone installation programs, for example, InstallShield.
SA requires silent install operation for programs designed for interactive installation. When you package these program files to upload to SA, use the silent install options to play back automatic responses to provide unattended installation.
Info-Zip compatible ZIP packages
SA offers package management support for Info-Zip compatible ZIP packages. The files that are archived within Info-Zip are installable in SA. You can download this package creation tool from www.info-zip.org.
Info-Zip compatible package metadata
SA uses the ZIP package file name to uniquely identify a ZIP package.
Prerequisites of Info-Zip compatible package management
Full support for managing ZIP packages on a server is included with the Windows SA Agent.
