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 |

Troubleshooting and Limitations – Federating Data to UCMDB
-
Federation only works with CIs in the actual state. Therefore:
- Policy compliance is federated only for CIs in the actual state.
- The authorization status for CIs that were deleted from the actual state is not shown.
- The maximum number of CIs that can be federated is configurable. To change this number, edit the value of the Max Num To Federate setting in the Infrastructure Settings Manager in UCMDB. For details about changing settings, see Infrastructure Settings Manager. The recommended number of CIs is no more than 20,000, if large views have been enabled in Configuration Manager. For details about enabling support for large views, see the section about large capacity planning in the interactive Universal CMDB Deployment Guide.
- If the test connection fails, click Details and check the first error in the stack trace for more information.
- Since a CI can be managed in multiple views, the same policy may be applied to the same CI in multiple views and may receive different similarity results, since the similarity group may be different in different views.
