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 |

Data Flow Credentials Management Overview
To perform discovery or run integration, you must set up the credentials to access the remote system. Credentials are configured in the Data Flow Probe Setup window and saved in the
Credentials storage is managed by the Confidential Manager component. For details, see Confidential Manager.
The Data Flow Probe can access the credentials using the Confidential Manager client. The Confidential Manager client resides on the Data Flow Probe and communicates with the Confidential Manager server, which resides on the
The Confidential Manager client's authentication on the Confidential Manager server is based on a LW-SSO component. Before connecting to the Confidential Manager server, the Confidential Manager client first sends an LW-SSO cookie. The Confidential Manager server verifies the cookie and upon successful verification, communication with the Confidential Manager client begins. For details about LW-SSO, see Configure LW-SSO Settings.
The communication between the Confidential Manager client and the Confidential Manager server is encrypted. For details about updating the encryption configuration, see Configure Confidential Manager Communication Encryption .
Caution The Confidential Manager authentication uses the universal time defined on the computer (UTC). In order for the authentication to succeed, ensure that the universal time on the Data Flow probe and the UCMDB Server are the same. The server and probe may be located in different time zones, as UTC is independent of time zone or daylight savings time.
The Confidential Manager client maintains a local cache of the credentials. The Confidential Manager client is configured to download all credentials from the Confidential Manager server and store them in a cache. The credentials changes are automatically synchronized from Confidential Manager server on a continuous basis. The cache can be a file-system or in-memory cache, depending on the preconfigured settings. In addition, the cache is encrypted and cannot be accessed externally. For details about updating the cache settings, see Configure the Confidential Manager Client’s Cache Mode on the Probe. For details about updating the cache encryption, see Configure the Confidential Manager Client’s Cache Encryption Settings on the Probe.
For details on troubleshooting, see Change Confidential Manager Client Log File Message Level.

Note The DomainScopeDocument (DSD) that was used for credentials storage on the Probe (in UCMDB version 9.01 or earlier) no longer contains any credentials-sensitive information. The file now contains a list of Probes and network range information. It also contains a list of credential entries for each domain, where each entry includes the credential ID and a network range (defined for this credential entry) only.
