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 |

How to Deploy the Scanner Scheduler
This task describes recommended workflows for deploying the Scanner Scheduler.
Installing the Scanner Scheduler
-
Ensure that UCMDB is installed.
-
Copy the installation package for the Scanner Scheduler to the discovery node
Note Ensure that you distribute or copy the installation files that are appropriate to the platform of the discovery node.
Windows:
-
On the UCMDB server, copy the MSI installation package from the following location to your local computer:
UCMDB\UCMDBServer\tools\InventoryDiscovery\ScannerScheduler
-
Copy the MSI installation package to the discovery node using any manual method or remote access technology.
UNIX:
From the UCMDB installation media, copy the file that is appropriate to your discovery node platform to your local computer. Additionally, copy the scannerschedulerinstall installation script file.
Tip The file name of the resources file indicates the platform.
-
-
Windows:
For attended installations, double-click or execute the MSI file. For unattended, or silent installations, run the following command: msiexec /quiet /I <MSIFilename>
Note To debug the installation, use the following command: /L*v <FullPathToLogFile>. Log files are stored in the same location as scan files. For more information on scan file locations, see Scanner Options Page.
UNIX:
Run the following command with root privileges: scannerschedulerinstall ud-scanner-scheduler-<platform>-10.20.000<buildnumber>.<packageformat>
-
Note If you do not want to update the scanners that are deployed to discovery nodes, skip this step.
If you want to use Scanner Scheduler to download and update scanners to discovery nodes, use the Scanner Generator wizard to generate a scanner. For more information, see Scanner Generator Wizard.
-
Customize download and running schedules
Customize the config.ini file to specify schedules for running scanners, to download centrally-managed configuration files using Curl, and to download scanners to discovery nodes. For more information, see Scanner Scheduler Resources.
-
The Scanner Scheduler starts automatically when the discovery node is started.
- The scanner downloads and runs according to the parameter values that are specified in the config.ini file.
Upgrade the Scanner Scheduler
Windows:
From the Control Panel, uninstall the Scanner Scheduler. Then, install the Scanner Scheduler normally.
UNIX:
From a command line, use the upgrade parameter. For example,scannerschedulerinstall --upgrade ud-scanner-scheduler-<platform>-10.20.000<buildnumber>.<packageformat>
Uninstall the Scanner Scheduler
Windows:
From the Control Panel, uninstall the Scanner Scheduler.
UNIX:
From a command line, use the uninstall parameter. For example, scannerschedulerinstall --uninstall
