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 |

Reconciliation
When using the Generic Adapter framework to populate or federate data, the CIs must always have the required reconciliation data in order to be accepted into UCMDB. When populating CI types such as Running Software that require a container CI type, always make sure to populate the needed container fields (for example, root_container_name and product_name) and the container CI (for example, Node). To populate CIs that depend on a root container, the CI, its root container, and the link between them must be created in the same step (either with explicit link population or auto-complete link population between the two CIs).
In addition, when mapping the populated/federated CIs, consider mapping the global_id attribute, as that will greatly aid the UCMDB reconciliation engine and should guarantee the exact CI reconciliation.
