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 |

Overview
This chapter describes the usage and functionality of the IBM Virtualization discovery package. This package supports discovery of IBM Virtualization Topology based on one of the IBM virtualization managers Hardware Management Console (HMC), Integrity Virtual Machines (IVM), Flex System Manager (FSM), or Workload Partitions (WPARs) as data sources.
IBM HMC was invented by IBM for the purpose of providing a standard interface for configuring and operating partitioned (also known as an LPAR or virtualized system) and SMP systems such as IBM System I or IBM System p series.
IBM IVM is an easy-to-use, browser-based tool that allows clients to point, click, and consolidate multiple workloads into one IBM Power System.
IBM FSM is a systems management appliance that drives efficiency and cost savings in the data center. IBM FSM provides a pre-integrated and virtualized management environment across servers, storage, and networking that is easily managed from a single interface.
IBM WPARs are virtualized operating system environments within a single instance of the AIX operating system.
