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 Discover CiscoWorks LMS
-
Prerequisites - Set up protocol credentials
Add credentials for the Sybase database instances used by CiscoWorks LMS (RMENGDB and ANIDB) to the Generic DB (SQL) protocol.
For credential information, see Supported Protocols.
-
Run the discovery
-
Discover IP addresses of the Sybase databases RMENGDB and ANIDB used by CiscoWorks LMS.
-
Run the CiscoWorks LMS Database Ports job to discover the TCP ports at which the Sybase databases used by CiscoWorks LMS are listening.
-
Create a new integration point, and use the CiscoWorks NetDevices adapter to discover network device information from CiscoWorks.
-
Create a new integration point, and use the CiscoWorks Layer 2 adapter to discover node (server) information from CiscoWorks.
Steps 2a and 2b are optional (although highly recommended - see note below) since CiscoWorks adapters are available in the Integration Studio, allowing manual creation of the necessary IpAddress, Node and IpServiceEndpoint CIs.
Note The CiscoWorks Layer 2 job requires additional data about CIs created by the CiscoWorks NetDevices adapter and already in UCMDB. This information is provided by the Input Query, which contains CI types (NetDevice and PhysicalPort) that provide this data in addition to CI types required to identify the integration target (IpServiceEndpoint).
For this reason, it is highly recommended to execute steps 2a and 2b. If steps 2a and 2b are not executed, creating the integration target CIs (while creating an integration point using the CiscoWorks Layer 2 adapter) requires the creation of Node and PhysicalPort CIs.
