Getting Started
Searching for Objects Using IT Administrator
You can use the search tool in Integration Technologies Administrator to locate specific objects in the LDAP directory that meet your search criteria. You can search for the following types of objects:
Note: Version 9 does not support dependent spawners.
If you are using Version 9, do not configure a dependent spawner.
- Channels
- Subscribers
- Servers
- Spawners
- Dependent spawners
- SAS logins
- Logical names
- Archives
- Archive paths
- Stored processes
- Stored process paths
- Tables
- Columns
- Libraries
The search tool consists of a text field in which you enter words
to search for, and three tabs to specify the conditions of the search.
To perform a search:
- Select the Search button (
 ) on the toolbar; or select Edit  Search from the menu bar.
- In the Search For field, enter one or more words.
By default, multiple words are interpreted as a collection of separate words. You can use the Advanced tab, as described below, to specify that multiple words are to be interpreted as a phrase. Searching is not case sensitive.
- On the Search In tab, select the administration area in which you want to search
(Publish, Server,
Archive, Applications, or Data Sources). You can search in only one administration area at a time.
Then select the types of objects
that you want to search for. If you search across multiple object types (for example, servers and spawners), the search results will be displayed together
in a single list.
- On the For Attributes tab, select the properties
for the search tool to examine. By default, the search tool searches in the Name
field.
- On the Advanced tab, select the match criteria.
The default match criterion is "Contains one of the words". The
match criteria are explained in the following table.
| Match criteria |
Explanation |
| Contains one of the words |
Finds objects in which at least one of the fields specified in the For Attributes tab contains at least one of the words specified in the Search For field. |
| Contains the phrase |
Finds objects in which at least one of the fields specified in the For Attributes tab contains the entire phrase specified in the Search For field. |
| Exactly contains the phrase |
Finds objects in which at least one of the fields specified in the For Attributes tab exactly matches the entire phrase specified in the Search For field. |
- Click OK.
The results of a search are displayed in a tree view labeled Search Results,
with a folder for each type of object returned from the search.
For example, if you were searching through both servers and spawners, and
the search found only two spawners, only a spawners folder would be displayed.
To view the objects returned by the search, expand the folder or folders.
Except for Refresh, New, and Delete, you can perform any operation in the Search
Results tree view that you can perform in the main tree view. All operations
in the property view are also available.
You can switch between the results of the last search and the main listing
by selecting your choice from the tree view menu.
Each search matches against all the available objects, regardless of what is currently displayed. You cannot search the results of a prior search.
