That's Miss Cleo's new job... "Call me now!"
P.S. My real name is Taufique Chowdhury and Tauf is the shortened version of that name... besides... why the hell would I pick this name if I wanted to fake it!?

Jennifer Meyer P.S. In the interest of full disclosure, my name really is Jennifer Meyer. My maiden name was Jennifer Spaeth. While in elementary school, I went by my step-father's last name, which is "Schick," so references to my maiden name don't surface in public records until 1988 or so, and references to my current last name don't surface until 2003. But the internet didn't exist in any useable form until 1998, so don't bother checking. And if you google "Jennifer Meyer," you'll just find Tobey McGuire's wife. And if anyone steals my identity, I'm just going to kill myself, because changing my name is just too freaking hard at 40.

So if you are on ITSM Suite 7.6.04 SP1 with overlays in place, just upgrade to SP2. You do not need a staging server, need to run BPCU again, etc. Once overlays are in place, all your customizations (extensions and modifications) will be identified and preserved as you upgrade to future versions. This is what will make the upgrade process much simpler moving forward. If you have not yet implemented overlays, you will need to follow the steps in the white paper and installation instructions - but just one time... not each time you upgrade. -David J.

Is there a simple document that lists the steps require to upgrade from the 7.6.04 SP1 to SP2 version? BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite 7.6.04 Service Pack 2 Upgrade Procedures and Guidelines White Paper Ok, I'm reading this to see how complicated it will be to upgrade from SP1 to SP 2. The document mentions all kinds of version that have nothing to do with SP1. In their "Staging Server Setup" chart/table document they have: (p20) "This may require multiple downloads per product. For example, to upgrade to BMC Remedy ITSM Suite 7.03 Patch 009, you also need to download 7.03, 7.03 Patch 007, and 7.03 Patch 009. Version and product information can be found in the Shared Application Properties form." What does this have to do with Upgrading ITSM 7.6.04 SP1 to SP2??? Or even 7.6.04 to SP2 Do I really need a staging server that is the same quality as my prod server? Wasn't the "new and improved" version supposed to make upgrades easier? In table C-1 " Table C-1: System objects that may be overwritten during an upgrade" it does not list any of the ITSM application specific definitions. Does that mean they are "safe"? The more I work with this the more I dislike it. I miss the good old days when I could just replace the arserver.exe file and the .dll files and my patch was done! _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ -- Patrick Zandi _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ ________________________________ E-mail correspondence to and from this address may be subject to the North Carolina Public Records Law and may be disclosed to third parties by an authorized state official. _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ ********************************************************************** This e-mail and its attachments may contain Forest Laboratories, Inc. proprietary information that is privileged, confidential or subject to copyright belonging to Forest Laboratories, Inc.
