The HPCA Console provides the ability to search for directory objects. This search is contextual. This means that when you initiate a search, the root of that search is the current directory object. You can initiate a search from either the main window or the Directory Object window—both contain a search button.
Note: Directory Objects that contain a large number of children may time out when retrieving a large number of records. Although the console may time out, the background process will continue to retrieve data until it reaches 10,000 records. If this happens, click the Refresh button to try the request again.
For directory objects with greater than 5000 child nodes, use the Search interface to navigate to a node within that list. This method will allow you to bypass possible time outs when browsing nodes with a large number of children.
To search for a directory object:
Create a Filter expression by selecting an attribute, an operator, and typing in the criteria to match
Note: When using the OBJECTCLASS filter, the only valid conditions are Equals or Does Not Equal. Also, certain directories, such as Active Directory, do not support wildcard characters included in the search strings for some attributes.
