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 |

Startup parameters change the behavior of the Service Manager server. You can always set a startup parameter from the server's operating system command prompt.
Parameter
restart
Description
This parameter restarts one or all Service Manager processes on a host after a specified waiting period and an optional quiesce grace period. This parameter uses the following syntax:
sm -restart:n [-host:host name or IP address] [-pid:process ID]
Use the host parameter to specify where the processes are located if they are not on the local system. If you do not specify a host, the server will restart processes on the local host. Use the pid parameter to specify a particular process ID you want to restart if you do not want to restart all processes on the host. If you do not specify a process ID, the server restarts all processes. Add restartGraceInterval to the sm.ini file to specify how many minutes you want to quiesce processes before they restart.
Note The restart command does not restart the load balancer process when restarting all processes on a host. The only way to restart a load balancer process is to specify it by process ID.
You can cancel a restart by using a value of -1 during the waiting period. You must specify the same host name or process ID you specified to restart. For example:
sm -restart:-1 -pid:1234
Note You cannot cancel a process restart after the restart waiting period has expired.
