An OOTB box is, by definition, unmodified.  i.e. you haven't modified the OOTB 
object.   So yes, that's expected.

The objects are changeable - what Developer Studio will do if you want to 
change them is make an overlay of the object and allow you to modify the 
overlay.  The OOTB object will remain unmodified and your overlay object will 
be the actual object you modify.

Of course, it's recommended that you do not modify BMC OOTB objects at all - 
but overlays will allow you to do so if there's no other way to accomplish what 
you want to do.  A better option, though, is to extend the BMC applications by 
adding your own new fields or workflow vs. modifying BMC objects.

Subject: OOTB Objects upgraded as Unmodified Objects on ARS 7.6.04

**
Hi all,

We have upgraded our AR Server successfully from AR System 7.1 to 7.6.04 
version. :)


I'd like to know if It's normal all the OOTB objects from version 7.1 become 
"Unmodified" (Customization Type) in 7.6.04 on DevStudio...

P.S.: All of our 7.1 objects were imported on 7.6.04 server as "Unmodified" 
(including Forms, Filters, ActiveLinks, etc...)

Is that right?

Is there anyway to make these objects changeable?

I have downloaded the plug-in that converts objects to Custom... Can I use this 
plug-in to convert all of my "Unmodified" objects to "Custom" objects?


Thanks.

Old Environment:

AR Server 7.1
Oracle 10g
Unix 5.3

New Environment:
AR Server 7.6.04 P2
Oracle 11g
Unix 5.3


Att,
Tadeu
