But BMC can change ar.h at any time, without warning, like during the next upgrade.

I'm afraid BMC would have to go quite far to get to infinity. Especially since a field id is limited to a 32 bit integer - from ar.h: typedef ARULong32 ARInternalId;/* structure to hold an internal id */ Infinity always makes me smile!

Honestly, I can't fathom who needs 1 billion numbers, but BMC has been using 1,000,000,161 for Request IDs lately and 1,000,000,082 for Company, so I'd guess they're headed to infinity. If you're in their way, you might get overwritten.

Yeah, I meant 600 million. I still have trouble counting to 5 so numbers larger than that stump me. :) -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Meyer, Jennifer L Sent: Wednesday, September 07, 2011 11:19 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: "Outside of Reserved Range" warning? Huh. I suspect it's the number of digits in your ID that's causing the issue. I seem to recall that 600,000,000 to 999,999,999 is reserved for custom development. Field IDs 599,999,999 and below are for BMC's use, but I don't recall anything about using IDs above 1,000,000,000.

Hello Listers, ARS 7.6.03 MS SQL Server 2005 VMWare Windows 2003 Enterprise I've been working in the Dev Studio for a while and I keep getting the following response when I create fields. "You have specified an id for the following fields which is outside the BMC reserved range. Do you want to continue?" I could see a warning for creating a field inside the range of reserved field ids but outside? Is there a config setting in Dev Studio to stop this message? The field ids that I use are all between 1,587,700,000 and 1,587,711,199 Thanks, --- John J.
