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 |

Topology Views and Inventory Views
There are two types of managed views: topology views and inventory views. Topology views are used for understanding the topology of a view and the relationships between the composite CIs. Inventory views are used for grouping similar composite CIs and are generally larger views including few relationships. You define the type of a view in the General pane of the Views module. An example of an inventory view could be a view containing all the Database CIs connected with a server.
The Explore Views, Review/Authorize, Changes History, and Authorization History modules have two options for displaying a view: topology mode and inventory mode. Every view is designated as either a topology view or an inventory view; however, both types of views can be displayed in either mode. Views with more than 250 composite CIs are automatically displayed in inventory mode even if they are defined as topology views. Configuration Manager supports inventory views with up to 5000 composite CIs.
