The Search field allows you to locate a given system by searching for a compartment name.
When you enter the name in the search field, Virtualization Manager first highlights all
complete or partial matches of the name, after a slight delay. The currently found item is
scrolled to the top and is highlighted in green. Other instances of the name are highlighted
in yellow. When you click the Search button or press Enter, Virtualization Manager moves
the scroll bar to the first compartment name it matches, and subsequent clicks move to the
next matching instance. For example, searching for the system citrine moves the scroll bar
so the compartment for that system is at the top:

If you are searching for part of the name, Virtualization Manager highlights any compartment
name that contains those characters and subsequent clicks of the Search button moves the
scroll bar to the next matched name. The search feature is case-insensitive. If the search text
does not yield a match, the background of the Search field displays red.

The Refresh button

allows you to update the display to include the latest compartments,

their relationships, and utilization information. Normally, refreshing the display is not
necessary because the view is updated automatically as new data becomes available.
However, you might use the Refresh button to reattempt gathering utilization data for all
items to ensure the view is showing the latest information. Refreshing the view updates all
containers and relationships, resource utilization data, authentication credentials (WBEM)
from HP SIM, and workload information from gWLM. While the view refreshes, the Refresh
button spins to indicate it is in progress.
