Specifying attribute names

Attribute name conventions

In BMC Discovery the naming convention for attributes is to use only the lowercase letters a to z with underscores (_) to separate words. Attribute names must not start or end with a space. Attribute names in searches can only be specified using the same characters. If you use other characters, for example a hyphen (-), your search will cause an error.

 

Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
