HI there. I've added a short search intro to the bottom of the "Create and manage database inputs" topic: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/2.0.4/DeployDBX/Createandmanagedatabaseinputs#Use_database_...

At the end of that, there is a guide to further reading, which I encourage you to check out to find out more about how to search in Splunk Enterprise.

Thanks, I had already figured it out myself, but this will be helpful for other people that are starting to use DB Connect 2.
