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.
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. |
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 |

Use OOTB Database Views for Reporting
The out-of-the-box (OOTB) or factory database views can be used for reporting as long as you perform read-only operation.
The views names are stored in the CLASS_MODEL_ENCODING table. You can find names of database views for each CIT by executing the following select statement:
select CLASS_NAME, VIEW_BY_CLASS from CLASS_MODEL_ENCODING
There is no clear rule for determining the view name based on the class name. Usually if the table name is CDM_<CLASS_NAME>_<CUSTOMER_ID>, the view name is something similar to <CLASS_NAME>_<CUSTOMER_ID>. But for some classes where the name length is greater than 32 characters (Oracle limitation), the table name and view name might contain number sequences. Therefore the best solution to find a view name is to run the above select statement.
Note
-
Database views will change when the Data Models are updated.
- Running more than 10 reports with large amount of data may lower the UCMDB performance.
- Run the DB views reports only when no discovery, enrichments, integration, aging, or purging runs.
- Only database views should be used for reporting, not tables.
