Search by Lifecycle Model

You can search for assets on the basis of lifecycle models and states.

Note:

This functionality is available when the lifecycle model itself is in the productive or retired state.

2. Locate the Filter Categories section under Narrow your Results.

5. In the text box, type in the lifecycle model or state to search for.

You can use one or more wildcards to specify the lifecycle model or state. If you enter just a wildcard in the text box, the entire list of lifecycle models or states is returned. However, if you leave the text box blank, then no search action is performed.

Note that a type-ahead feature is provided in this text box.

6. Add the lifecycle model or state to the recipe by either clicking the plus button next to the text box or by pressing Enter. If required, add additional lifecycle models or states to the recipe by repeating steps 5 and 6.

You can delete entries from the recipe by clicking the delete symbol next to them.

7. You can optionally use the Browse option to narrow the search as you need. Do the following:

b. When you click the button, a Browse Lifecycle Models dialog appears which allows you to select the required lifecycle models or states.

c. Click the expand node next to any lifecycle model to view the categorization tree.

You can expand or collapse the list of lifecycle models, that is, to show or hide the list of states in a hierarchy view. For example, you can show only the header for a specific lifecycle model, and display the complete list of states in the hierarchy by clicking on the header.

You can configure the number of lifecycle models to display in the hierarchy view using the CentraSite's expandable property. For procedures on how to configure, see Configuring CentraSite's Expandable Property.

d. Mark the checkbox beside the name of the lifecycle models or states that you wish to add to the search recipe.

CentraSite automatically adds the selected lifecycle models or states to the existing recipe entries, and returns the assets that match the specified search scope.
