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 |

Wizard Info tab field definitions
Use this tab to enter basic information such as the wizard name, description, window title, and images to be included on the panels displayed to the end user.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Wizard Name name |
This field forms the unique key for the wizard in the wizard dbdict. Enter a brief descriptive name for the wizard as the unique identifier for this wizard record. As a best practice, include the table (or module) for the wizard, the action the wizard panel performs, and other detail such as whether the wizard is the Start Node. For example, your first wizard panel name for creating a wizard panel for SLA could be something like "SLA Create 1 - Start - Type." This is a required field. |
Start Node? start |
Selecting this checkbox (setting it to true), indicates that this is the first in a series of wizard panels. When a wizard set as the Start Node also requests user input, the Previous button is automatically disabled when the wizard panel is displayed to the user. Note If the Start Node wizard is not displayed to the user, be sure to disable the Previous button on the first wizard panel that is displayed. |
Brief Description brief.description |
Enter a brief, meaningful description of the wizard, including any important identifying information. |
Window Title window.title |
The window title is displayed on the tab that holds the wizard thread when displaying the wizard panel to the user. This field also takes a message number from the scmessage database. For example, scmsg(18,"wizard"). Note If the wizard you are creating will be localized (translated to another language or languages), then using the scmessage database is the preferred method. |
Title title |
The title of the wizard entered in this field appears in bold in the upper left of the wizard panel when displayed. The title can be entered as a message number from the scmessage database such as scmsg(18,"wizard"). Enter a title that makes indicates the purpose of the panel to the user, such as "Create SLA." If more detail is needed, you can enter something like "Create SLA - Enter Description." |
Prompt prompt |
Enter a prompt that instructs the end user if this is a wizard panels that will be displayed to the user. HPE Service Manager displays this information in the center of the panel, between the title and the wizard subformat, to give the user more detailed instructions on what kind of information should be entered in the panel. The prompt should be in large type. Note Localizable messages, such as scmsg(18,"wizard"), can be used for the titles and prompt rather than hard-coding the wizard with text. This allows for localized languages in a multi-lingual environment. |
Bitmap bitmap |
The image to display on the left side of the wizard panel. The default image is located in the Service Manager Install Directory at: Client\plugins\com.hp.ov.sm.client.common_<SM version and build number>\src\resources\icons\obj16\wizard<1,2,3>.gif If you want to use a different image, add it to the installation path above and enter the image file name in this field. |
Global Lists global.list |
Click Fill to select the global lists to be built or updated so that they are available when the wizard is run. |
