Michael, maybe your boss will allow you to introduce a blind patch on your dev server, but mine won't, and I wouldn't do it if he did. Maybe BMC should stick to the ITIL rules regarding Release management, so that we can stick to them in Change Management. Also, I remember Doug talking a couple of years ago about the ardisable utility, but I never saw it actually available - I thought it was just another idea he threw out that turned out to not be released to us. Is it on the Dev. Network or somewhere? Rick _____

What I would recommend is of course running it first on a dev/test environment. You could create a user with a name like 'ITSM7Patch006' to run the installer with. This way it is pretty easy to see which workflow and fields have been touched by the installer. If you have sticked to the 'rules' which Doug Mueller set some time ago (ref: http://www.remedy.com/corporate/ron/volume02_issue01/english/article_03.htm <http://www.remedy.com/corporate/ron/volume02_issue01/english/article_03.htm > ) and use the ardisable utility you can do a patch upgrade pretty fast. Of course it would also be nice if BMC would just add a list with touched fields and workflow in their patch... -- Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards Michiel Beijen ______________________________________________________ MANSOLUTIONS Energieweg 60-62 3771 NA Barneveld The Netherlands Tel. +31-(0)612968592 Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet http://bsm.mansolutions.nl On 11/6/07, T.

Remedy has identified them as known errors (SW00249109,SW00262080,SW00263933). I can not find these on their support web site. I'm told that Patch 6 will fix these issues. However, i'm also told they don't know nor do they have any documentation as to WHAT workflow they touch / update. This I don't understand - there are alot of people who customize ITSM 7 to match their needs and if Remedy has identified a bug / defect and they have a fix for it, then they should be able to provide a list of WHAT workflow they are updating / changing. This is frustrating.
