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 |

Predefined Queries for Population Jobs
The following TQL queries (located in the Modeling Studio in the Integration\Data In folder) are provided out-of-the-box if you use the DDMI adapter when you create an integration point:
-
hostDataImport - use to import nodes. Imported data includes nodes whose NodeRole attribute is either null, or contains desktop, server, or virtualized_system. Nodes are identified either by their interface or IP address. Information also includes the location of the nodes (building, floor and room).
-
networkDataImport - use to import nodes that are not imported with hostDataImport. Similar to hostDataImport, except that it imports nodes whose NodeRole is not null and does not contain the following strings: desktop, server, virtualized_system, or printer.
-
printerDataImport - use to import printers. Similar to networkDataImport, except that it does import nodes whose NodeRole contains the string printer.
-
Layer2DataImport - use to import Layer2 connections between pairs of nodes through their interfaces. Information also includes the nodes and their IP addresses.
