Welcome Jason. This is the easiest/basic auth. If you don't want
passwords in the user.xml then you can use tomcat realms from a db
source and/or a class

Not done this myself but looks pretty easy.

Thanks Danny! I have been meaning to look up how to do this. I knew
it was possible and have poked around a bit but just haven't got around
to actually doing it. Although I would rather we are not storing a
static/clear text password in a file. But... I was thinking a
password for each of my team. Maybe we should just have one shared
account for our team. That would serve the purpose and avoid use need
to keep track of another personal password.

Jason,
Configure tomcat realms. Then you can have a popup like login just for
that midtier. Its like htaccess is for Apache.

Since it is just for the admins I guess you could change the
http/https port daily :)

Do you have a way to keep them from using the Admin MT in the
future? When not running large queries but just because they can.
And then they tell their friends and everybody starts using your MT

Peter,
We also use the same server group name across environments and use
host files on our local machines to administer each environment
when needed.
In addition to the diagram below, I like having a dedicated mid
tier to the admin box outside of the user load balancer as well. It
helps since a lot of forms don't display properly in the WUT
anymore. Also, I'm assuming you're not allowing unqualified
searches on the user facing boxes. I've had instances where a user
needed to run a query beyond the limit we set so having a mid tier
pointing to the admin box allows for those one off requests as
well.

To ask a related question to anyone that has done this already –
do you build all the AR Servers with the same hostname then use
the hosts file on each server to resolve the name back to itself?
This way there’s no need to edit any configurations if the server
is cloned.

Hi Brad
Where is your mid tiers ? do you have load balancers to ensure
your HA ?
My end picture would look like this bellow
You would need a load balancer to ensure your HA
Load all boxes exactly the same you can move the functions with
the rankings
Only allow server 1 and 2 to be available via the LB for user
access your 3rd server could still perform the actions you set out
for it to perform. So even if server 3 is struggling your users
won’t be affected.
Without the LB you won’t really have HA, with the picture below
you could actually reboot server as you wish and your users won’t
have any impact.

Firstly, thanks for any help you guys can offer.
We are busy upgrading to ITSM 8.1 and want to setup server groups
to ensure we have HA in our environment. Currently on our live
environment now we have a single live server which makes us a
little nervous. Our DB is a clustered DB with a separate instance
handling just reporting. This keeps unnecessary traffic off our
live DB which is only for Remedy.
We are looking at having the following architecture setup:
So Remedy Live App Server 1 and Server 2 are both Physical
Servers. The Remedy Mail and Escalation Server is Virtual Machine
server. We wanted to keep escalations and mail processing off our
mail servers and wanted them to rather focus on providing a ITSM
and SRM Service to our users.
What I want to know, is the above possible ? Do I need to install
the ITSM and SRM applications on the Remedy mail and escalation
server for it to work or can I just do a Remedy 8.1 Core
installation? Do I also need to include it in the server group but
with its only job as processing mail and escalations or can I keep
it out the server group?.
Also, If I setup the setup group with just the App server 1 in it
for now, can I turn off the "Administration Server" option and use
it as normal and only activate the Administration option when we
add in the second server to the server group at a later stage ?
Are there any problems with the above plan or something I am
missing?
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
