Finding Objects

Your Galaxy can get very large and can include many objects. It can become difficult to find a specific object. You can search for templates or instances, and you can search by part or all of a tag name or hierarchical name. You can limit a search by platform and engine. Other search options are:

• Find objects with errors or warnings

• Find checked-out objects

To search for objects

1. On the Home ribbon, in the Find area, select Find.

   The Find dialog box appears.

   

2. Do some or all of the following:

   • In the Find box, type some or all of the name of the object.

   • In the Name area, select either Tagname or Hierarchical name as the type of name you entered in the Find box.

   • In the Type area, specify if you are looking for an Instance or a Template. If you select Template, the Name and Search scope groups are unavailable.

   • In the Search criteria field, select how to search for the name in the Find what box. The options are: Contains, Exact match, Starts with or Ends with.

   • Search for objects in an error or warning state by selecting Only objects with errors or warnings.

   • Search for objects that are checked out by selecting Only Checked-out objects.

   • Limit the search scope by selecting from the Search scope lists.

3. When you are done specifying the search criteria, click Find. The search results appear in the bottom pane.

4. Double-click an object in the results pane. The object is located and selected for you in the Application views area.

   If you double-click a Backup AppEngine, the IDE opens the Deployment view and the object is selected there. See Working with AppEngine Redundancy for more information.
