Locating information manually on the user interface can be time-consuming and tedious, especially when there are many jobs, nodes, tapes, etc. in the system. The Quick Search feature allows you to quickly and easily find the information you need on the user interface. You can use Quick Search to find an item on any tree or list in the Arcserve Backup Manager. For example, you can use Quick Search to locate the following type of information:
Important! Quick Search will only search items displayed on the user interface. It will not search for particular data stored on a tape.
Note: To enhance Quick Search performance, you can filter the Activity Log to reduce the number of items displayed and queried prior to using Quick Search. For more information about filtering the Activity Log, see Set Activity Log Queries.
To locate information using the Quick Search feature
For a list of where and how you can access the Quick Search feature using Ctrl+F from the user interface and a sample of the kind of items that can be searched, see Quick Search Accessibility.
Note: You can also launch Quick Search from the context menu of a tree or list view when you right-click and select Quick Search.
If you type a keyword to search on, the search supports the hint during typing feature where the hint is provided from the keyword history. For example, if you type "job" and the keywords "Job 1943" and "Job 2048" have been entered previously, then both "Job 1943" and "Job 2048" will be listed under the text box where you are typing.
Note: The search does not support wildcard characters.
If you click the drop-down arrow, the keyword history displays. By default, the maximum number of keywords remembered is fifty, but this limit can be set in the local registry.
Search using case-sensitive capitalization.
Search using whole word matches and not part of a word.
The Search result list displays, showing all the matched items, the number of items found, and the total number of items searched.
Important! The Quick Search feature will only find items that are at the expanded level. Items under a collapsed node will not be found. Therefore, as long as the item is visible on the user interface or can be seen by scrolling, the Quick Search is able to find it.
Note: The search function will work in the background, so you can continue working during long searches without closing the dialog. To stop the search at any time, click the Search button.
The search stops if it is still active and the item is selected on the tree or list in the background of the user interface.
The Quick Search dialog remains open.
Note: If the preferred items are not found, you can adjust the keyword and perform another search.
