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 |

Empty Value for No Nulls Key in Service Manager
Sample configuration
In Service Manager you have configured a No Nulls key for field “testnotnullfield” of the device table, however you have not mapped this field in the XSLT file.
Error message
The data push job is completed with a “Passed with failures” status. From both the log file and the detailed error messages of the failed CIs in the Universal CMDB studio (see How to Check the Error Messages of Failed CIs/CI Relationships in a Push Job), you receive an error like the following.
Solution
Find the key number in the <messages>
section to see which No Nulls key has a NULL value. For example, if you find a message “Key #1 is empty”, check the first key definition of the device table to see which field(s) this key is for, and then make sure that a non-NULL value has been mapped to the field(s) in the XSLT file.
