First of all if there are physical users using the same Remedy account to
create and update tickets, concurrently, you are violating the Remedy User
License agreement. If you did not already know that, you might want to
reconsider and generate separate accounts for each physical user.

 

If these users are using some sort of a portal that uses a Remedy published
WSDL, then you are ok. In fact that is how a published WSDL using a
pre-configured login for the WSDL in the Mid-Tier basically works.

 

When I set up web services, I use a dedicated account which I consider as
some sort of a service account for WSDL. This is good for tracking purposes.
Do not get into the habit of using the same account for WSDL and other
accounts like AIE etc. as this will make it difficult for you to trace
problems when you log workflow in the event of some problems.

 

Cheers

Subject: Weird or Expected behavior Webservice 7.6.04

Hi Guys,

 

I just boarded to a new client where they are using integrated environment
of SharePoint with Remedy ITSM 7.6.04, they have designed the request entry
console of ITSM with all its functionality in sharepoint and integrated it
with ITSM through webservices.

 

Their system is working as expected but sometime it happens the generic user
through which they connects start giving authentication error messages.

 

After digging more i have seen they are only using one 'user' which connects
them to remedy. As per my understanding a user with fixed license can only
connect concurrently to specific amount of machine i am not sure about the
number. if there are people creating ticket concurrently through SharePoint
console in that case their ticket creation will fail and they will get
authentication errors.

 

I think as they are using only a single remedy user to authenticate with web
service causing this issue and the most disastrous think i have also noticed
is, they are also using the same remedy account for one more integration.

 

Please provide your insight over the same.
