DSO follow-the-sun examples

2006-09-15 Thread arslist
Hi James, Alexander, and L. J. Head,

Thanks for your responses, I appreciate it.

Nevertheless, does someone knows about some concrete example of sites where DSO 
works with several servers in a follow-the-sun
mode? Which ones?

If I have some examples it's easier to convince the person.

I would be frustrated if they choose another tool than DSO for this ...
I am just consultant and we are not saling licenses, but just consultancy.
I don't want to have to implement something else than DSO...to make replication 
between ARS servers it would be an aberration in
my point of view.

Thanks again.

Webservcies GetListOutputMap/GetListInputMap

2006-09-15 Thread Gerold Glaser
Dear Listeners!

I'm playing with webservices and Remedy 6.3 and tried to test the examples
mentioned in the knowledgebase. Especially the examples about a java client
with apache axis. In this exampels they are always mention the classes
GetListOutputMap/GetListInputMap. But I can't find the implementation.

Can you please send me the java source for this two classes or tell me where
I can get them.

Re: How to capture workflow errors in Filters

2006-09-15 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi!

It all depends on what you mean by "capture".

1. If you are programming an API-program, you can will get the error
message, and can code according to the message list returned.

2. You can capture errors in logfiles. Any failed API-calls will have the
text FAIL attached to the ending API-row in the logfile. Put filters/sql
in the same logfile, and you will be able to see what happened.

3. You can send ERROR-messages to ARUser, to prompt the user to fix a
problem and re-save

4. Errors occuring in Filters can usually be circumvented by doing some
tests by creating additional filters. Instead of an ERROR-message, you can
do separate actions that can handle the situation.

Re: How to capture workflow errors in Filters

2006-09-15 Thread Carlos Ungil

Hello,

you can also send a mail notification just before signaling the error
(I find this very useful to know when users are doing something
they're not supossed to do).

To avoid the notification being deferred to a later phase (which will
never come), you have to change the name of the filter so it ends with
"`!" ( back quote + exclamation mark )

See "Overriding filter processing phasing" in the Basic Guide.

Cheers,

Carlos

Re: How to capture workflow errors in Filters

2006-09-15 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi Gopala,

A typical scenario could be that you do a Push-Fields from a filter, but
the ticket can not be created because i.e. one field contains an invalid
value.

The trick would be to verify this value before the Push-Fields and refrain
from doing the Push-Fields in the case of an invalid value.

The original ticket would still be submitted/modified.

Re: Syncing passwords between two servers

2006-09-15 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

Unfortunately, the C-API aproach does not work in this case. You can not
export/import password fields with the API. You must use runmacro/ARUser
and arimportcmd/ARImport to transfer password data.

I discussed this with R&D during BUW, and we agreed that there were no
real reason that the encryption/decryption algorithm within
ARUser/runmacro/ARImport/arimportcmd should not be integrated within the
API.

I do not think that BMC will change this behaviour though...

Re: Syncing passwords between two servers

2006-09-15 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

The code to handle 6.3-passwords does not exist in the 5.1-tools (runmacro
etc). That is why you need to use a 6.3-arimportcmd to be able to import a
password to a 6.3-server.

I older versions, you could not do a filter-run-if like ('TR.Password' !=
$NULL$), as this was a protected field. This could make it hard to trap
password changes.

To solve this problem, I would suggest that you create a
password-change-dialog which does two Active-Link-Push-Fields to both
servers. Create a password-change-date-field and push a value into that
field.

Make sure that the Submitter-field on the User-record is the same as the
Login Name, to allow for Read-users to change their password.

You can change the Submitter-field by exporting the Login Name and Request
ID to an ARX-file and then import it using ARImport into the
Submitter-field (update old record with new record data).

I am not sure what instructions your looking at, but those classes are
normally generated by a wsdl2Java program that you would run against
the target wsdl file. The class will be different for every WebSerivce

request crashing user tool - malloc failed

2006-09-15 Thread Raido Oja
Hello,

I have discovered 2 requests so far on a regular form, that cause the user
tool to crash with 'malloc failed on server' error msg. I can see the
requests through a table on some other form, but when searching for them
the user tool crashes.

When trying to export data the export process hangs when it reaches these
requests, as does runmacro.exe when exporting from the command line.

As I have to save the data I am thinking of exporting on the database
level, deleting the data and creating a new request afterwards. Or can
anyone suggest another way of salvaging these requests?

My system:

ARS 5.01.02 patch 1357
Windows 2000
Oracle 9.2.0.3.0

Thanks for any ideas,

Hi,

I have a similar situation with my system:

ARS Server V6.00.01 patch 1497
Solaris 5.9
Oracle 9.2.0.7.0

Each access to the affected ticket causes 100MB of ram to be used by the
arserverd process. When a certain amount of ram has been used arserverd crashes
and armonitor restarts.

SQL trace logs don't show anything but api logging does show an error. In many
cases it is only the values of the Query List that are returned. No values for
any other fields are displayed. Initially this was showing up as an RPC
error/timeout.

I have a ticket open with Remedy Support for 2 weeks now but nothing that we
have tried has traced the problem. We have even exported the production
database and re-imported it into a different Oracle server and pointed our
development Remedy Server at this copied database. The problem is apparent on
both the production and development servers and it is reproducible 100% of the
time.

If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful.

Thanks.

Re: Mid-Tier 7.0 Installation Problem

You may be better served having a second AL check for whatever 'Else' 
conditions you are looking for.
BUT
In looking at your qualification, it appears that their might be some overlap 
in the conditions.
('Status' != $NULL$ AND 'Case ID+' != $NULL$)  would evaluate TRUE 
even if;  Status=New AND CaseID = HD.AND, I believe( 'Status' != 
"New" AND 'Case ID+' != "HD" ) would evaluate TRUE even if; Status = NULL AND 
CaseID = NULLSo it looks like your run-if would rarely evaluate 
false/else.Maybe:Status = New AND CaseID = NULLStatus = 
NULL AND CaseID = HD
If you want, give us a little more insight in to what you are trying to 
accomplish, maybe we can help.

Re: request crashing user tool - malloc failed

2006-09-15 Thread Carey Matthew Black

My first guess.. and this is just a WAG...

Check the T, H and B(if you have them) tables and find where there is
a missing record for the Request ID (field 1) values. A mismatch in
these tables has caused issues like this before.  I have never seen
the ARS server freak out that badly, but I have seen the User tool
crash due to this type of thing in the past.

Good luck.

Re: Outraged (continued)

2006-09-15 Thread Moore Jr., Donald B.
I agree, Remedy tech support has always been top-notch.  I had an
interesting experience the other day when I called in a problem. I was
transferred to a tech guy who seemed anoyed with my question.  (Sorry, I'm
not as Windows savy as I should be, I was raised in the UNIX world).
Anyway, he said he'd e-mail me a brief synopsis of what to do and then call
me back.  I never received anything, not even a ticket number.  This is the
first time this has ever happened to me with Remedy support.  I guess
nothing lasts forever.

Title: RE: request crashing user tool - malloc failed
**





Nyall and Raido:


I'm willing to state that the affected action has a very large diary or attachment associated with it.  If you attempt to export the record from your database, Oracle can handle the data collection, but Remedy cannot.  Thus, you see a large increase in memory usage and then the crash.  If you care to explore, you can look at the CLOB storage for that record and find the record is very large.  Don't know how this happens as the limit for a diary field under Oracle is 1MB of text.

If you need help, I think that I can provide a little bit of it.

Hi,


I have a similar situation with my system:


ARS Server V6.00.01 patch 1497
Solaris 5.9
Oracle 9.2.0.7.0


Each access to the affected ticket causes 100MB of ram to be used by the arserverd process. When a certain amount of ram has been used arserverd crashes and armonitor restarts.

SQL trace logs don't show anything but api logging does show an error. In many cases it is only the values of the Query List that are returned. No values for any other fields are displayed. Initially this was showing up as an RPC error/timeout.

I have a ticket open with Remedy Support for 2 weeks now but nothing that we have tried has traced the problem. We have even exported the production database and re-imported it into a different Oracle server and pointed our development Remedy Server at this copied database. The problem is apparent on both the production and development servers and it is reproducible 100% of the time.

If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful.


Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. There's no attachment fields on my form, but 
there is quite a large diary field (but considerably less than 1mb). 
Anyway.. I'm also going to check the tables for a missing record, my 
problem is only with the user-tool crashing, it does not affect the 
server. I'll post back how it turns out.

Title: RE: request crashing user tool - malloc failed

Raido:


Suggestion:


Get with your Oracle DBA and do the following:


Log into SQL*Plus as the Remedy login, usually aradmin with the default password being ar#admin#.
Select schemaid from arschema where name ='';
Select count (c1) from t;
Select count (c1) from h;
Select count (e1) from b;


If I remembered the column names correctly, the last may be c1, these numbers should match. If they do not, you have a missing entry in one of the tables.  I had a missing entry in the H or status history table once.  The result is that particular entry could not be displayed, not a malloc error.

I would suggest exporting the 'large' diary entry and if possible, remove it to a file, or trimming it using a Diary Editor.  I actually had someone dump a directory table into a diary entry.  The result was constant malloc errors and a diary field of over 3MB.

Sql process and hanging ARServer

2006-09-15 Thread Piotr Polewczak
Hi,

i've got problem with hanging arserver, problem appears when one sql process
(connection from arserver) starts to lock other processes.

Command in blocking process is : sp_cursorclose;1 
Resources locked by process are : ARSystem.dbo.servgrp_userlic,
ARSystem.dbo.user_cache, ARSystem.dbo.T10 (User)

after several minutes almost all arserver processes are locked by first
process and arserver hangs, in logs there is info :
Dispatch : Timeout during data retrieval due to busy server -- retry the
operation (server)  ARERR – 93

Problem appears in the high load of the system and when all licences are taken.

Enviroment :
2 x ARS 6.3 patch 18 (server group)
MSSQL2000
Windows 2003

Thanks for any help,
Peter

Re: Two different Condition 's in Run If

Hi Fred 
 
No even what you have suggested this time didn't worked  :(
 
1) First options of yours fail for both the scenario's i.e. CREATE & QUERY
2) Second option i.e. by making a swap by using a NOT works only for the first 
condition ( i.e. Query or Create ..which ever is mentioned before the OR )
 
(NOT (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID+' = "HD")) OR(($OPERATION$ = 
"QUERY") AND ('Case ID+' = $NULL$)))  ==>  Works for CREATE
 
(NOT (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID+' = $NULL$)) OR (($OPERATION$ = 
"CREATE") AND ('Case ID+' = "HD")))  ==>  Works for QUERY
 
 
Looking forward to crack this simple :( stuff with your Help & Info

You want the error for these 2 conditions (and the error is in the
else).
 1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =
Null )
 2) On Create when his Case ID has a default value ( Case ID = HD)

So those conditions would be:
 1. ($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)
 2. ($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")

So putting them together would be (This will give you the error in the
If):
 (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)) OR
 (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD"))

You can either swap the actions or NOT the entire criteria:
 (NOT (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$))
  OR (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")))

It so simple but making me really crazy about it ...

ok let me try to explain you briefly

I want to block a user action on a Button Click to open a new Window and
to include both the condition's in a single ACTL's Run If

1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =
Null )
2) On Create when his Case ID has a default value ( Case ID = HD)

Now I am trying that

Run If  ==>  ('Case ID' != $NULL$)  OR ('Case ID' != "HD")

If  Action ==>  Open the Window

Else If==>  Error Msg


Result : If I use only one of each condition in the Run If ..it works as
desired but fails when I try to use both with "OR"

I beleive its somthing to relate with the execution of an ACTL at two

It looks like it's missing some parenthesis

Without an extra ( after the NOT and ) at the end, the NOT is only

You want the error for these 2 conditions (and the error is in the
else).
 1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =
Null )
 2) On Create when his Case ID has a default value ( Case ID = HD)

So those conditions would be:
 1. ($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)  2. ($OPERATION$ =
"CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")

So putting them together would be (This will give you the error in the
If):
 (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)) OR  (($OPERATION$ =
"CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD"))

You can either swap the actions or NOT the entire criteria:
 (NOT (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$))
  OR (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")))

Just a reminder to everyone, once you have posted to the ARSlist, there is 
currently no such thing as a recall, so be carefull to recheck what you 
are sending, and the TO: field to make sure it is going to the individual

Check the T, H and B(if you have them) tables and find where there is
a missing record for the Request ID (field 1) values. A mismatch in
these tables has caused issues like this before.  I have never seen
the ARS server freak out that badly, but I have seen the User tool
crash due to this type of thing in the past.

Good luck.

Title: RE: Down Loading Presentations from BMC User World

Since Mr. Easter is actively monitoring this list and I was not able to attend BUW do to reasons way beyond my control:


Mr. Easter:


I attended the Remedy Boot Camp in Pleasanton, CA in December of 2004.  This brought out the technical sessions that were offered at the Remedy User's Group for that year and also allowed those of us that were unable to attend the RUG for one reason or another to see and meet the technical leads to include Mr. Doug Mueller.  I would like to suggest that BMC investigate reintroducing something like this for those of us who were unable to attend the BUW.  I definitely would request to attend this.  I recommend that at least three of these Boot Camps be organized.  One that the Pleasanton, CA location, one at BMC headquarters in Houston, TX and finally the last at the Columbia, MD location.  These Boot Camps should cover the most popular (I recommend at least two sessions per) six topics at BUW.  Also, a meet-and-greet session with the technical leads, such as the UNIX server lead, Mr. Mueller (time permitting) and possibly a continuation of the RFE process discussion.

This is not to substitute for the BUW, which I think is a good idea given its audience.

 1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =

So those conditions would be:

Hi,

I think that you are along the correct lines here except that I don't
expect that for these particular entries that there would be any large
diary entries but as I am rusty on SQL then I am not sure of the exact
Oracle commands required to verify the size of the relevant fields. Any
pointers would be gratefully received.

I have checked that the relevant T,H and B tables are consistent with
the number of entries in each.

Thanks.

memory usage and then the crash.  If you care to explore, you can look

(NOT (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID+' = "HD")) OR(($OPERATION$

You want the error for these 2 conditions (and the error is in the
else).
 1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =
Null )
 2) On Create when his Case ID has a default value ( Case ID = HD)

So those conditions would be:
 1. ($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)  2. ($OPERATION$ =
"CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")

So putting them together would be (This will give you the error in the
If):
 (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$)) OR  (($OPERATION$ =
"CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD"))

You can either swap the actions or NOT the entire criteria:
 (NOT (($OPERATION$ = "QUERY") AND ('Case ID' = $NULL$))
  OR (($OPERATION$ = "CREATE") AND ('Case ID' = "HD")))

I want to block a user action on a Button Click to open a new Window and
to include both the condition's in a single ACTL's Run If

1) On Query when he has no Case Id selected or searched (i.e. Case ID =

2) On Create when his Case ID has a default value ( Case ID = HD)

Now I am trying that

Run If  ==>  ('Case ID' != $NULL$)  OR ('Case ID' != "HD")

If  Action ==>  Open the Window

Else If==>  Error Msg


Result : If I use only one of each condition in the Run If ..it works as
desired but fails when I try to use both with "OR"

I beleive its somthing to relate with the execution of an ACTL at two

Himanshu:


Maybe I can make this simple.  You were checking if a condition(s) did NOT exist.  Thus, if the condition existed, you wanted a message as an ELSE condition.  I would do the reverse and make the condition when I seen the message and the else condition would open the window, and you would have only one Active Link (you almost did this below with an AL that fired on Seq # 1 with no condition.)  It is very hard to think in a NOT state for most people and that is why there are very few ELSE condition actions.

Re: request crashing user tool - malloc failed

2006-09-15 Thread Axton

This can happen if you have a large diary/unlimited text field.  If
you are using Oracle, there are some configuration parameters you need
to set to handle large clobs.  the same is true of attachments, but
you have stated there are none.

Use this select statement to find the size of the diary field values:

select length(audit_trail)
from hpd_helpdesk
where audit_trail is not null
order by length(audit_trail) desc

substituting your db view/columns, of course.

In the ar.conf file, check for the presense of these values:
Db-Max-Text-Size
Db-Max-Attach-Size (if you had been using attachments)

Pulling  values that exceed these config parameters (or the default
value for the parameter) will cause arserverd to crash.

Axton:


Thank you for the Oracle code.  I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure this one out.


I hope that the writing of a diary/unlimited text field LARGER than either the default or set parameter is fixed.  It was not in 4.0.3 nor 4.5.2.  This led to a major effort to check tickets on a daily basis to trim the Diary type field data of those actions that were getting close to or had exceeded this value.  BTW, administrator type logins did not get the malloc error but non-administrator logins did.

Re: DSO follow-the-sun examples

2006-09-15 Thread Thomas J. Mutaffis

Hi,

I did exactly this at Lucent Technologies and it work fine. We had three 
servers, one in England, another in Malvern, PA and a third in Sunnyvale, 
CA. Our purpose was exactly as what you've stated, to allow the tickets to 
"follow-the-sun" which in essence gave us coverage for 18 hours while only 
running one shift at each location. Each "shift" retained ownership of the 
ticket during their normal working day. At the end of the working day 
ownership was transferred to the next in line and so on. This worked out 
very well and all were satisfied with the results.


Hope this helps...

Tom

Hi James, Alexander, and L. J. Head,

Thanks for your responses, I appreciate it.

Nevertheless, does someone knows about some concrete example of sites where 
DSO works with several servers in a follow-the-sun

mode? Which ones?

If I have some examples it's easier to convince the person.

I would be frustrated if they choose another tool than DSO for this ...
I am just consultant and we are not saling licenses, but just consultancy.
I don't want to have to implement something else than DSO...to make 
replication between ARS servers it would be an aberration in

my point of view.

Thanks again.

I have a customer who is fearing about the DSO performances: he never
saw it yet but someone told him some things like this...a competitor
surely...

The target is to make different ticketing servers repilcating submit,
changes and deletions in a "follow the sun mode" all around the world
(about 4 or 5 servers in different continents).

Does someone of you know one or more similar examples of implementations
that are running fine in a "follow the sun" mode?
I would appreciate that.
I beleive DSO is the best solution for him but I need to convince him.

He asked me also about a product called "Golden Gate"...?!
Does someone have an experience with this tool?

Kind Regards.

Subject: Re: DSO follow-the-sun examples


Hi,


I did exactly this at Lucent Technologies and it work fine. We had three servers, one in England, another in Malvern, PA and a third in Sunnyvale, CA. Our purpose was exactly as what you've stated, to allow the tickets to "follow-the-sun" which in essence gave us coverage for 18 hours while only running one shift at each location. Each "shift" retained ownership of the ticket during their normal working day. At the end of the working day ownership was transferred to the next in line and so on. This worked out very well and all were satisfied with the results.

Hope this helps...


Tom

Hi James, Alexander, and L. J. Head,


Thanks for your responses, I appreciate it.


Nevertheless, does someone knows about some concrete example of sites where 
DSO works with several servers in a follow-the-sun
mode? Which ones?


If I have some examples it's easier to convince the person.


I would be frustrated if they choose another tool than DSO for this ...
I am just consultant and we are not saling licenses, but just consultancy.
I don't want to have to implement something else than DSO...to make 
replication between ARS servers it would be an aberration in
my point of view.


Thanks again.

Forms overlaying

2006-09-15 Thread L Feulner
ARS 6.3 hd 6 oracle 9i windows 2003 

I open a display only form from a link on the management console, then 
open the Solutions form by double clicking a value in the tablefield in 
this display only form.  The Solutions form opens and the data is 
correct.  The problem is the Solutions form is underneath the display only 
form.  I have to close the display only form to see the Solutions form.  I 
have tried opening the Solutions form in an active link as a Dialog window 
type and also as a Modify window type.  What do I need to look at/change 
to get the Solutions form to appear on top of the display only form?
