Dear Jason,



Thanks a lot for sharing your practice in a way that precisely 
helps me, and I would like you to elucidate one more query, according to BMC, 
the Hyper-V falls under Partially Supported Virtual Environments and by any 
chance have you faced any such BMC issues specific to the Virtual Environment, 
please share it if any.



Hope with your amplification I could advance sound.

** Kailashnath,

The OS and application are the same no matter if installed on server hardware 
directly or virtual, installed on Hyper-V or VMware.

Our test ITSM 7.6 system is on Hyper-V and production is on VMware ESX (the 
prod db server is physical though).  Users access ITSM by connecting to the 
Mid-Tier server with their web browser.  The same is true for using the Windows 
User Tool and Developer Studio, we just connect to the application server 
instead.  It works very well.

There is a quote from the 7.6.03 beta I see come up occasionally regarding the 
speed of the first ITSM Preconfigured Suite Stack Installer.  That performance 
(installed in less than an hour) was experienced on a single Hyper-V / Windows 
2008 R2 server (app/db/web) that was underpowered for I was asking of it.  
Granted that was for installing and not under user load, the point being there 
really is no functional difference between hardware or virtual.

Hope that helps,
Jason

environment and the subject of physical/virtual never came up.  I
imagine if there is an issue that completely stumps them they may ask

OT: Urgent please help! how to refresh table using filters

2011-03-13 Thread Jason Miller
Just for fun I ran a log to see if my theory is correct.  These two (MS) SQL
statements were issued right after the Call Guide was issued.

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM T1296 WHERE ((T1296.C536870915 = 'Application
Accounts') AND (T1296.C536870916 = 0) AND ('ID9C2B20524153EZ5ZTQv6PtoAFVUV'
= T1296.C600017002) AND ((T1296.C536870914 LIKE   '%%'   ) OR (0 != 0))
AND (T1296.C600010001 IS NOT NULL)) ORDER BY 1 ASC

SELECT TOP 1001  T1296.C1,C536870914,C600010101 FROM T1296 WHERE
((T1296.C536870915 = 'Application Accounts') AND (T1296.C536870916 = 0) AND
('ID9C2B20524153EZ5ZTQv6PtoAFVUV' = T1296.C600017002) AND ((T1296.C536870914
LIKE   '%%'   ) OR (0 != 0)) AND (T1296.C600010001 IS NOT NULL)) ORDER
BY C536870914 ASC, 1 ASC

I thought the *LIKE '%%'* was kind of odd until I looked at the table field
qualification:

('Menu Name' = "Application Accounts") AND ('Status-Resource' = "Active")
AND ($GUID$ = 'Parent Request ID-WARDD') AND (('Menu Item' LIKE (("%" +
$SystemSearch$) + "%")) OR ($SystemSearch$ = " ")) AND
('chkSelectedAccount-WARDD' != $NULL$)

The table field works with a character field to limit results based on a
keyword, purely for UI purposes.  I use the same UI table field in the
filter loop.  According to my theory it makes complete sense but never
thought about it in this context and I didn't consider it when I build the
table field query.

It almost sounds like she has a table field but referring to it as a just a
table and back end table is the form the table field is referencing.  The
way I am reading it she already has the filter guide firing but it is not
looping how she expects.

If this is the case, and you are using all ARS functionality (table field
vs. back end SQL table directly), there is no need to refresh the table
field in a filter guide/loop.  ARS is smart enough to know how to handle
it.  A table field is more or less a UI component.  The ability to do filter
loops was added later (version 6.0 I think) and my belief is ARS uses the
table field definition to build the SQL query to get the record set for a
filter guide loop.

Please describe the issue you are experiencing so we can better help you.

My wild guess is that you are doing a push fields with the data in the table
field and may need to override filter phasing with *`!* at the end of the
filter name.  Just a guess with what little we have to work with.

Please explain better what you are doing.

If you are using email to update an ARS table directly you cannot fire a filter 
since this is an API call. You could try an Escalation if you can determine a 
timing that would work.

Re: mid tier error (ARERR 329)

Hello,

 

Still I am facing this issue. The issue is whenever I tried to modify help
desk form on mid tier, I get following error:

 

Invalid password or authentication string for an existing user ARERR 329

 

We are using preference server. I mean we have configured preference server
on config page of mid tier. Should I change to patch 24? Whether it will
solve my issue?
