Use the Software Catalog application to find all or a subset
of all catalog records for currently deployed software instances.
About this task
From the Software Catalog application you can identify and
list all the catalog records for software currently found in inventory;
that is, that have been deployed, discovered, and have an existing
deployed software record in the Deployed Software application. The steps for finding
currently deployed software follow.
Procedure
-
On the navigation bar, click .
- On the toolbar, use Advanced Search or
the Software filter to display the catalog records for all or a subset
of deployed software instances.
Do one of the following
substeps:
- To display the catalog records for all currently deployed
software instances, click Advanced Search,
and in the Licenses section of the search window specify
Y in
the Deployed field and clear the Total
Deployed field.
- To display the catalog records for a subset of currently deployed
software instances, specify a quantifier and number in the Total
Deployed field.
For example, to display in the Software
table only catalog records for software with fifty deployed instances,
type =50 in the Total Deployed field.
To display only catalog records for software with greater than a hundred
deployed instances, type >100. To display
only catalog records for software with less than eighty deployed instances,
type <80.
Tip: It is faster
to use the Total Deployed field in the Software
table for this task if the number of deployed instances is your only search
filter. Otherwise, use Advanced Search, as
described in the next substep.
- To display the catalog records for a subset of currently deployed
software instances, click Advanced Search and
in the Licenses section leave the Deployed field
empty and specify a qualifier and number in the Total Deployed field.
For
example, to display in the Software table only catalog records for
software with fifty deployed instances, type
=50 in
the
Total Deployed field. To display only catalog
records for software with greater than a hundred deployed instances,
type
>100. To display only catalog records
for software with less than eighty deployed instances, type
<80.
Tip: Use Advanced Search for this task
when you want to employ these Deployed filters
in combination with other advanced search filters.
- Optional: To view or work with one or more
software records now displayed in the Software table, do one of the
following:
- Click on a single record to go directly to the Software tab and
open the record. Click on subsequent tabs for additional details related
to the record.
- Select the records you want to work with, then click the tab or
select an action appropriate for your task.
To select multiple catalog
records in the record list, check the Select Records check
box and then check one or more records that you want to work with.
If you subsequently select an action, the action will be applied to
all selected records in the list.
From the toolbar, you can click the Previous Record and Next
Record icons to page back and forth through the records
that you selected on the record list.
