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	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`

Data Flow Probe Setup Window

In this window you can manage the discovery domains, Data Flow Probes, and probe clusters in UCMDB. You can also manage connection data for each connection protocol.

To access	Select Data Flow Management > Data Flow Probe Setup.

Domains and Probes Pane

Enables you to view, define or edit domains, connection credentials, probe clusters, Data Flow Probes, and passive discovery probes. Also enables you to automatically upgrade all the Data Flow Probes with the latest cumulative patch (CUP).

User interface elements are described below (unlabeled elements are shown in angle brackets):

UI Element (A–Z)	Description
	New Domain. Opens the Add New Domain dialog box, enabling you to define a discovery domain in UCMDB. For details, see Add New Domain Dialog Box. Available when: Domains and Probes root is selected New Data Flow Probe. Opens the Add New Probe dialog box, enabling you to add a Data Flow Probe to UCMDB. Available when: The Data Flow Probes node or a cluster is selected. New Cluster. Opens the Add New Cluster dialog box, enabling you to define a new probe cluster. For details, see How to Add Probe Clusters to UCMDB. Available when: The Data Flow Probes node is selected.
	Remove Domain/Probe/Cluster. Removes the selected domain, Data Flow Probe/probe cluster, or passive discovery probe. Note When you remove a Data Flow Probe from a cluster, its network range remains part of the cluster's network range, and a new network range needs to be defined for the Data Flow Probe. Exception: If the Probe was added to a cluster , and then removed without making any changes to its range and before saving the cluster, then its range is not merged with the cluster's range, but remains with the Probe. If you remove a probe cluster, and its Probes are still up and running, the Probes automatically reconnect to UCMDB server, and, after a few minutes, reappear in the Data Flow Probe Setup under their defined domain.
	Find Probe Range by IP. If a Probe has many defined ranges, you can locate a specific range on the Probe. To do this, select the Probe and click Find Probe Range by IP. In the Find Probe Range dialog box, enter the IP address (in IPv4 or IPv6 format, as appropriate) and click the Find button. The range is highlighted in the Ranges pane.
	Reload Domain Information from Server. Updates all domain and probe information from the server.
/	Suspend Probe/Cluster. Suspends the selected Data Flow Probe/probe cluster from the Server such it cannot run discovery and integration jobs. Resume Probe/Cluster. Resumes the Data Flow Probe/probe cluster's ability to run discovery and integration jobs. Note When a Data Flow Probe/probe cluster is suspended, only the ability to run jobs is suspended. All other processes continue to run as usual. The suspend feature is used to just create a job execution policy for a particular probe, and dispatch the policy to that particular probe. Once the job execution policy takes effect, all of the jobs dispatched to the particular probe are switched to the Total blackout state. It does not block the process of job dispatching from UCMDB server to the probe. The effect of the suspend feature equals to creating a job execution policy rule in the Domains and Probes Details pane directly.
	Deploy Probe Update. Opens the Deploy Probe Update dialog box, enabling you to automatically update the CUP version of all the Data Flow Probes connecting to the UCMDB Server to the CUP version compatible with the UCMDB CUP version. In the Deploy Probe Update dialog box, navigate to the Probe CUP .zip file. Note During the CUP deployment process, all compatible Data Flow Probes are automatically restarted. If an integration is running on a Data Flow Probe while it is restarting, the integration stops running, and starts over when the Data Flow Probe restarts. If an integration is almost finished running, or a significant part has already run, to avoid starting the integration over, we recommend letting it complete its run, and, thereafter, updating the CUP.
	Undeploy Probe Update. Enables you to undeploy CUP versions of the Data Flow Probes connecting to the UCMDB Server, and thereby align them with the CUP version of the UCMDB Server. For details, see How to Align the Data Flow Probe CUP with the UCMDB Server CUP.
<Domain and Probes tree>	Displays the domains defined in the system, along with the credential per supported protocol and the probe clusters, Data Flow Probes, and passive discovery probes in each domain. Note Integration Probes—that is Probes on Linux machines, and Windows Probes configured for integration only— are not displayed in the tree. To verify if an integration Probe is connected, create a dummy integration point and verify that the Probe is listed among the Probes that can be selected for the integration point. For details, see How to Set Up an Integration Point.
<Credential status icons>	. Indicates that an active discovery job or activity wants to connect using the protocol, but no protocol credential information is defined.
<Data Flow Probe status icons>	. Indicates the Probe is connected. . Indicates the Probe is suspended. . Indicates the Probe is disconnected.
<Probe Cluster status icons>	. Indicates the probe cluster is connected. . Indicates the probe cluster is suspended. Note A red exclamation mark on the cluster icon () indicates an warning or error that needs attention.
