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. |

OS Provisioning approval
When you boot a server into a service OS, a special version of the SA Agent is used to communicate with the SA Core. This OS Provisioning Agent needs to register with the Core before the server enters Maintenance mode. An OS Provisioning Agent always registers to the SA Core using the Bootstrap certificate, even when the SA Core runs in third-party certificate mode. This compensates for external CAs not being able to sign certificates for servers that do not have an Operating System installed yet.
The spin.agent.bootstrap_enabled controls whether an SA user has to approve OS Provisioning Agents request to register with the SA Core and enter Maintenance mode. For more information, see The spin.agent.bootstrap_enabled parameter.
When entering Maintenance mode, the OS Provisioning Agent receives a temporary self-signed Agent certificate, as described in Self-signed temporary SA Agent certificates.
Replacing temporary Agent certificates with third-party certificates
Servers provisioned using SA Provisioning use temporary Agent certificates even when SA runs in third-party certificate mode. Once provisioning is complete and your Certificate Authority can sign the SA Agent certificate, replace the temporary certificate with the final certificate issued by your CA. For more information, see Phase 2: Update your SA Agent certificate to use third-party certificate mode.
