Hi Chris, Maybe the issue isn't actually with the ARImport. Did you track down in the filter log the filter / action that is kicking out the error? If it's a process call it could be something at the server level or maybe something in the new version (7.6.04) filters that is expecting something the 7.1 version didn't.

We have several dozen scripts we run on our servers that do data imports using the arimportcmd. We have been running these scripts, in some capacity, for over 9+ years without issue. However, we upgraded one of our servers to 7.6.04 and now everyone of these scripts fail to run using the arimportcmd. I have been digging through all the documentation I can for 7.6.04 and have searched the BMC Knowledgebase, and even tried doing Google searches trying to see why the arimportcmd just stopped working. The error we are seeing in the filter log is > **** Error while performing filter action: Error 38 We format the arimportcmd as follows: passing in the variable values arimportcmd -r $RPC_NUMBER -x $SERVER_NAME -u $USER_NAME -p $PASSWORD -m $MAPPING_FILE_NAME -d $MAPPING_DIR -o $LOAD_HOME/$FILE_TYPE/$DATA_FILE -l $LOG_FILE_NAME > /dev/null 2>&1 Christopher Pruitt Business Consulting III Remedy Developer BMC Certified Administrator: BMC Remedy AR System 7.6.04 HP Enterprises Services christopher.pru...@hp.com www.hp.com Confidentiality Notice: This message and any files transmitted with it are intended for the sole use of the entity or individual to whom it is addressed, and may contain information that is confidential, privileged, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
