Tool search
The Tool Search feature provides a quick way to search and filter textually, based on tool names, tool
locations in the HP SIM cascading menu structure, and tool descriptions.
• The tool search feature searches, matches, and highlights as you enter information.
• The tree structure of the menu is represented exactly. If no filter text is supplied, the menu is rendered
in a tree format for browsing.
• Searches are not case sensitive.
• Tools are hyperlinked and can be launched from the tree.
• Tool names, menu paths, and descriptions are searched. If you are not authorized for a tool, it is not
included in the search.
• As an example, when you search on SNMP using the following procedure, matching tools include
SNMP in their names but in their descriptions. By reading the short description, you learn how SNMP
applies to the tool, and you get a quick overview of the tool.
