1 – KEY
Displays the path name of all the keys that match the specified
key.
This command requires the SYSPRV privilege or the REG$LOOKUP
rights identifier.
Format:
SEARCH KEY key-search
key-search
Specifies the key name for which to search.
1.1 – Qualifiers
1.1.1 /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT=file-spec
Controls where the output of the command is sent. If you do
not specify a file name, the system uses the default name
REGISTRY.LIS.
1.1.2 /WAIT
/WAIT=seconds (default = 90)
/NOWAIT
Specifies the maximum amount of time, in seconds, that you are
willing to wait for command completion. If the Registry server
does not complete the request in the specified interval, REG$CP
returns REG-F-NORESPONSE. The default interval is 90 seconds.
/NOWAIT is equivalent to specifying /WAIT=0, but there may still
be a short wait period.

REG> SEARCH KEY HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\...\NODE
HARDWARE\CLUSTER\NODE
HARDWARE\LOCAL\NODE
NODE
Displays all the key paths that match the HKEY_LOCAL_
MACHINE\...\NODE selection. The ellipsis (...) wildcard
specifies that there can be any number of subkeys between the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE entry point and the NODE subkey. Note that
the search is not case sensitive.

rights identifier.
