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 |

Enable SSL encryption for external Web Services
If you want to connect to external Web Services using an SSL connection, you must import the CA certificate that signed the external Web serivce certificate into the CA certificate keystore for the Service Manager server. If you purchased a server certificate, import the external Web services CA certificate in the CA certificate keystore provided with your purchased certificate. If you generated your own server certificate by using a self-signed private CA certificate, then import the external Web Services CA certificate into your private CA certificate keystore instead.
Note: In this SSL scenario, the Service Manager server acts as a client of the external web service and must present the external web service with a valid certificate. If the external Web Service requires client authentication, you cannot use the Service Manager sample server certificate because the external web service will not recognize the signing authority of the sample certificate, and because the sample certificate uses a common name (CN) for the Service Manager host which will not match your actual Service Manager host name. HPE recommends you purchase or create a valid certificate for the Service Manager host in order to establish an SSL-encrypted connection with external Web Services.
- Import the CA certificate of the external Web Service into the CA certificate file of the Service Manager system. You may use a tool like keytool to import the external Web Service's CA certificate.
- Stop the Service Manager server.
- Open the Service Manager initialization file (
sm.ini
) with a text editor. - Add the following parameters to require SSL encryption using the external Web Service's signed certificate.
- keystoreFile – Identify the keystore file containing the Service Manager server's certificate and private key
- keystorePass – Identify the password to the keystore file containing the Service Manager server's certificate and private key
- truststoreFile:cacerts – Identify the keystore file containing the external Web Service's CA certificate.
- truststorePass – Identify the password to the keystore file containing the external Web Service's CA certificate
- Save the Service Manager initialization file.
- Restart the Service Manager server.
- Login to the Service Manager system with an administrator.
- Click Tailoring > Web Services > Run WSDL to JS.
-
Update the endpoint URL to the external Web Service to include the HTTPS protocol. For example,
https://remote_server.remote_domain.com:13445/remote_service.wsdl
.Note: The endpoint URL must use the same server name as the common name (CN) listed in the external server certificate. For example, if the certificate uses the name remote_server.remote_domain.com, then the endpoint URL must also use the name remote_server.remote_domain.com.
- Complete the wizard to connect to the external Web Service and convert it's WSDL into local JavaScript proxy code.
