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.
Words and Phrases
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| 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 |

How to Upgrade Your Integration
This
The logical name solution contains significant CI related code changes. For example, prior to version 9.41, Service Manager used the logical.name field in the device table to store CI names. The logical.name field must be unique in the Service Manager system, but UCMDB allows duplicate CI names. As a result, CIs may have to be renamed when they are pushed from UCMDB to Service Manager. Starting with version 9.41, Service Manager stores CI names in the display.name field in the device table, and stores unique CI identification numbers in the logical.name field. The display.name field allows duplicate values if they are pushed from UCMDB, and requires unique values for CIs that are created from Service Manager (unless they are not of the same CI type).
