Mike,
I already changed that parameter on both servers, but it doesn't affect the URL generated for notifications (I didn't restart the system though, because changing the default web path doesn't require a restart either). >From what I read in the server group config guide, I think that the correct solution to this issue would be to change the server names in ar.conf as suggested by Jason. Thanks, Michael From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Mike Worts Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 11:29 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Server group alias in notification web URL ** Michael, Check out BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.6.04 Configuration Guide, page 125. I think this is what you are looking for. Add the URL of your AR server group (e.g. http://<server <http://%3cserver> group name>/arsys) Email Notifications Web Path Specifies the base URL that appears in email notifications. If this field is left blank, the Default Web Path is used. (The Email Notifications Web Path field is available because the Default Web Path is specified for other applications like Flashboards, and it might be different from the mid tier web path for opening requests in a notification.) If your company has multiple domains, use a fully qualified path name.

You should be able to configure both servers in the group to know themselves as the group name, and use the Server-Connect-Name for the server group node specific stuff (that's how I've set it up in the past).... > > Or you could use the email replace filter as previously suggested. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Nau, Michael > Sent: Monday, June 25, 2012 8:21 AM > To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG > Subject: Server group alias in notification web URL > > ** > > Hi List, > > > > we have two servers running ARS 7.0.01 as a group, and one MidTier server running V7.5. > > On "SYS:Notification Messages" I have configured Incident Assignment Notifications to include both an artask attachment for fullclient users and a web URL for midtier users. > > > > The server parameter in the web URK always points to the alias of the first server of the group.
