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 |

Create a new model
After you validate a configuration creation change task and determine that there is no existing model in HPE Service Manager for the new configuration, you can create a new model and manufacturer. A model refers to the product catalog that defines the approved and certified list of components that can be deployed within the IT environment. Models contain information such as model name, manufacturer, and the ID of a component. You must create a model before you can create new configuration items (CIs) that are based on the model.
To create a new model, follow these steps:
- Click Request Management > Maintenance > Supporting Files > Model.
- Use search or advanced search to find one or more records.
- Find the models from the manufacturer or supplier.
- Type or select the new model information, and then click Add.
- Double-click the Line Item Category Name that best describes the new model. Service Manager adds the model record and then displays several more tabs where you can enter additional information about the model.
-
Type or select any additional information for the model in the new form tabs, and then click Save.
Note Select all tabs to make sure that you have completed all required fields.
You can now create new configuration items based on the new model.
