Enterprise console FIND issues

chavez243

the find feature (CTRL+F) seems a bit b0rked, as I search all hosts for a hostname I know exists, it returns results that aren't even close.

eg. search criteria CAON1WI08L0428 : results = CAON1WI05D0625 *and* CAON1WI05D0680

that's not even close - what is going on?

    Hello chavez243,

    "i know exists" means I can find it myself if I work through the list

    I assumed that much - but better ask :smileywink:. 

    Right you are - it is broken. I click Errors on the dashboard and then use Find I get incorrect results. Once I sort by name it works. Switching between Errors and All brings sooner or later back the error. Find extracts the set of IDs for the matches from the [ComputerListData2] view and then cycles the "cursor" through this list. Looks like somewhere in the background there are "mappings" between ComputerID, its position (and visibility) in the list display (and whether it has been selected). Looks like Find relies on the mapping (and sort order) of the view when the console is opened. Sorting a certain (sub-)view appears to make it work. But all this is guesswork ...

    So - you should give Support a call.
