You can perform full-text searches over all the repository objects that are indexed.
*Your repository must be indexed. If not, you can use the advanced search, see Advanced Search.
You can access the search function from your Hopex desktop toolbar at all times.
Full-text search gives access to two types of results, based on:
• the name (short name only) of objects, results of the simple full-text search
• the name of objects as well as their attributes, results of the extended full-text search
*If the repository is indexed, indexation runs automatically every 10 minutes (which is an adaptable default value) thanks to the indexing scheduler. This indexing is incremental and about created and modified objects, see "Managing Repository Indexing".
