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
Universal CMDB (UCMDB) can discover data center infrastructure information stored in an HPE Systems Insight Manager (HPE SIM) system. Integration involves synchronizing devices, topology, and the hierarchy of a data center infrastructure in the UCMDB database (CMDB). This enables change management and impact analysis across all business services mapped in UCMDB, from an infrastructure point of view.
UCMDB initiates discovery on the HPE SIM server through Web service calls. Synchronized configuration items (CIs) include nodes such as Windows, and UNIX servers, network devices, printers, clusters, cellular/partitioned systems, blade enclosures, and racks. Some server components, for example, CPU, are also synchronized. The integration also synchronizes relationships between blade servers and blade enclosures, virtual machines, physical servers, and so on. The synchronization uses an XML-based mapping that dynamically changes synchronized CIs and attributes without requiring a code change.
For details on nodes and attributes in HPE SIM, refer to the Database tables section of the HPE SIM Technical Reference guide.
