Server name alias is definitely the short name - and although the IP-Name exists with the full name it is the third item in the list, behind the short name an the IP.

If you change this to the short name e.g. myserver then do two things: 1 - Make sure the local arserver can ping that name and that the reply IP is the actual local machine. Normally I add this to the local hosts (windows) or /etc/hosts on *NIX 2 - in the ar.cfg file add the following line IP-Name: myserver.domain.com Kind regards Danny Single Sign On (SSO) for the BMC Remedy AR System and ITSM http://www.javasystemsolutions.com/jss/ssoplugin From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of William Rentfrow Sent: 02 May 2011 19:58 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Server name in notification ** If you check the checkbox to include a URL to the entry in the email - where does it get the AR Server name from? For example, our URL looks like this: http://midtier/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=NTE%3aNotifier&server= Myserver.Domain.Com&eid=NTS000000000383 myserver.domain.com isn't configured in the mid-tier and consequently we get an error. How the "myserver.domain.com" part is goes into the URL is a mystery to me. All of our servers are currently configured with a short name (e.g., myserver instead of myserver.domain.com) and the only place the FQDN exists is as an IP-Name entry in the ar.conf file. The actual server name is the short name. Everything else I can find is the short name. Thanks in advance...
