you run your saved search. You can review, modify, and run new search variations, and save

For a Volume search, using Attribute, you can specify Storage System
Vendor, or Storage System Model (useful if you have multiple storage
systems of the same type). The Value drop down provides available
vendors or models. You can invert the search results using the is/is not
operator. The +/- buttons allow the addition or removal of additional
search conditions. When switching to other supported search types,
investigate the Attribute and Value fields to see what is available.
