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 |

Horizontal and vertical layouts
The HPE Service Manager web client provides the following two layouts for a list-detail page:
- Horizontal layout: In the horizontal layout, the record list pane is above the record detail pane. This is the default layout of the list-detail page.
- Vertical layout: In the vertical layout, the record list pane is on the left side of the record detail pane.
You can use the switch to toggle between the two layouts.
Your web browser stores the following layout information of your current login session:
- Horizontal layout or vertical layout
- Columns and the width of each column
In a newly opened page or in your next login, the web client can keep the same layout. If you clear the cache of the web browser, the web client uses the horizontal layout.
Hover information in the vertical layout
In the vertical layout, the content in the first column appears as links. When the mouse hovers over one of these record links, a hover window appears and displays the values of all columns. Hidden columns are displayed below a separation line.
To customize the fields that the hover window can display, follow the instructions in Create customized column views for record lists.
