I have nothing to add to this discussion on the server side, however I’d like to bring something up with your Internet Explorer issue.
On the client side, we’ve discovered some defects in IE 9 that may still be an issue in 10, as well as performance issues that I suspect are due to AppSense or some other technology that came into play when we upgraded our clients to Windows 7. Since BMC supports Firefox I always double up my testing between those two, and unofficially add Chrome as well since more people use it than the other two browsers. I’ve found that some issues that occur in IE are basically non-existent in Firefox. I’ve found issues between versions of IE as well, as it seems like Microsoft’s browser is getting less reliable with each new version. If you suspect Flash is the major issue you can disable the plugin on the browser or disable it on the Mid Tier. I don’t know if this works on 8.x, but on 7.6.4, you can go to <Install Directory>:\Program Files\BMC Software\ARSystem\midtier\WEB-INF\classes\ on the Mid Tier server, open up the config.properties file, and set arsystem.flash.enable_ui_rendering=true to be arsystem.flash.enable_ui_rendering=false instead. That shouldn’t have an impact on any functionality of Remedy, just the way things are displayed.

The problems I have / had so far: -> IE 10 just freezes (didn't have the time to look at time, strongly suspect the way IE10 embeddes flash now), -> some problems launching the installers (need to force UI mode in command line), -> some problems installing patch 001 of ITSM 8 (need to change a bat), But at functionnality level nothing special arised. A couple of collegues work on the VM and it looks ok so far. Didn't try to do a 7.6.04 with it since they just hate how windows server 2012 works now (GUI/IHM) but it's more a "human" factor :) Laurent.

So I have a few quick questions: 1. Is anyone currently using Windows Server 2012 in production with AR System 7.6.04 or 8.0.00? 2. Is anyone planning to move to Windows Server 2012 in production with AR System 7.6.04 or 8.0.00 prior to August, 2013? 3. Is anyone currently evaluating Windows Server 2012 in development / test / QA – and have you encountered any blocking issues that absolutely keep you from moving into production? -David J.
