Re: CI Viewer - CMDB Libraries are not available?

2007-01-30 Thread John Baker
Hello,

I often wish a complete set of API libraries for all platforms was readily 
available. I tire of putting together a set by pulling apart installation 
sets. Given the sheer amount of C libraries shipped with the Java jars, it's 
becoming increasingly difficult to figure out what's relevant and what's not.

Perhaps someone at BMC wishes to write to me and I'll let them know precisely 
what they need to do in order to make API development much easier?

Re: Apple Safari Web Interface

2007-01-30 Thread John Baker
Carey,

Actually,  you're wrong. Safari is probably more standards compliant than IE - 
it's built on the KHTML rendering engine.

It's not hard to make something work with all browsers, bearing in mind that 
all browsers deviate from the standards in some way. BMC have simply chosen 
not to, I assume because of cost/lack of skills.

Hi,



Is it possible to populate a field as you typing in another
fieldlike real time information and not populating it after losing
focus or something...

What I am trying to do is while you tying into a text field it should
display how many characters are left for you to type in another text
field like the example below.



Any Ideas?

User permissions

2007-01-30 Thread Colin Love
Hello,
   We have recently upgraded to v7 of ARS (from v4.0!!) which was done
via a new install.  Obviously lots of things have changed between the
two versions, but there is one thing I dont seem to be able to nail.

We are intending to use mid-tier to allow users to submit and review
their
own tickets, and have set up some LDAP authentication against AD for
this
and it works well utlising the submitter field. We can further use 
field permissions to restrict access so the user can only see their
entries and nobody elses.  This is what we want.

However, we also have notifications going out from the form in question
that go to what would be deemed public email addresses (ie dont appear
in ARS) and for the field values to work we need to open up permissions
for Public on the fields, which then breaks the user access as they can
then see all of the calls.

Is there a way of locking down permissions to allow both functions to
happen correctly, or perhaps a way for the notification to be run as
a defined user that we can assign a group permission for (instead of 
Public) ?

Thanks in advance.

Colin

Just use an active link that fires on interval and set to lowest value (3).
It's next to the button action.

 

You can outrun it if you type fast but we're dynamically updating text

Re: User permissions

2007-01-30 Thread Carey Matthew Black

Colin,

One option is to have workflow compose the data into a field that the
user does have access to. (So that for that record, and for the
transaction of the Submit/Modify, the user has access to the data via
an authorized path provided by workflow.)

You could also opt to convert your Notify action into a Push action
that manually creates a record in the AR System Email Messages form.
However I think that will require a bit more work and could offer some
distinct advantages/disadvantages too.


However, I think the only field where this is particularly problematic
is really the 'Request ID' (field 1). If you are controlling row level
access with field 1 then that is the only field that MUST NOT be
Public. The other fields might be ok to be Public because that would
still be restricted by the permissions on field 1.

Re: User permissions

2007-01-30 Thread Ben Cantatore
I can think of two ways to do this. 
- One, you make the field public and enforce permissions through workflow. 
 
- Two, you keep the current permissions on the field you have and create 
another hidden field with public permissions where you mirror the value of 
the original field.  Modify your notification to use the duplicate field.

Re: Workflow

2007-01-30 Thread Rick Cook
The bottom line is that it would have to be something that resided on the
client.  Can you imagine the client/server traffic involved if it had to
have workflow or a DB trigger update a field every time a character was
typed?
 
Perhaps the easiest workaround would be to size your field to exactly the
field length of it.  That would at least give the users a visual cue as to
how much more they could type.

It certainly does seem to be taking an inordinate amount of time.  It's been
months since it was most recently promised.  How long does it take to create
export/import maps and procedures for two sets of data tables for products
which they created?  I'm no longer believing anything I'm told on this until

CMDB 2.0.1. It was quite a popular topic at the time, but BUW was around 5

There are 2 questions: 
1. Upgrade CMDB 1.1 to 2.X with existing ITSM 6.x 
2. CMDB new install with ITSM 6.X 
 
A lot of information has been passed through the list the only problem is
BMC has not officially released the patch needed to do either of the above.

All, 
 
I know this question has been asked a few months ago and I think I know the
anwer, but wanted to make sure. 
 
Do you know if CMDB version 2 is supported with a Helpdesk 6.0 application?
The compatibility matrix only lists CMDB 1.1, but I want to verify this. 
 
We have already installed CMDB 2 and I am thinking we might have to
uninstall and install CMDB 1.1 before installing HD 6.0.

I thought of one way to make the counter work...you can use an active 
link that fires on gain focus of the field and on a 3 second interval 
and sets your counter field based on the LENGTH() function. I haven't 
thought about it long enough to figure out how to stop the active link 
once the interval begins.


It's not real time...but 3 seconds is close if you're a slow typer...

2007-01-30 Thread Reiser, John J
Darshana, Rick, Dan  Saravanan,
 
The enhancement request for the full client and the Midtier would be
great but there is an alternative with AL workflow and the interval.
Granted it has a minimum of 3 seconds but you could fire a set fields on
interval that counts the length of the current field and subtracts it
from the known max length of the field.
Now there is the issue of trying to activate/deactivate the interval so
it only runs when needed. Maybe inside an AL Guide?

Hi David,

  You're correct.  There were a few more files found to be missing from
the manual install ability of patch 020 that we had to update.  I've
checked with Support and all of the files should now be available for
those admins that wish to install the files manually.

  The installer method, which was unaffected by all this, is still there
as well for those that want to use it.

  The README may have to be tweaked one more time to make the
instructions clearer, but the actual code files should not change again.
At least, that's what I've been told.  The README should read:

Installing the patch by replacing the files on Unix:



1) Stop the AR System and Email Engine (arsystem stop)

2) Save the original copies of the following files:

emaildaemon.jar - email install path

ar*.jar - email install path

libar*.* - email install path

3) Copy the *.jar libar*.*,libx*.*,libi*.* files from the patch to
email install path.

4) Restart AR System (arsystem start), email engine will be started by
armonitor.

Sorry to beat a dead horse.  I had looked at patch 20 for Solaris and
others and hadn't seen any changes other than Windows binaries and

said to make sure that I had all the binaries and libraries as files had

OT- CMDB 2.01 supported with Helpdesk 6.0 Application?

2007-01-30 Thread Sanford, Claire
All I can really contribute to this conversation is that I absolutely
100% hate the CMDB.  It makes adding fields to the asset records a real
PITA!  
 
In an environment where we have all been used to being able to customize
to the needs of our organizations, this is cumbersome and clunky.
 
It drags the system down and has taken a process that was clean and
simple and complicated it to the extent that in some cases you probably
would be better off having someone from PS come assist.  BUT, would they
know what they are doing and be able to do it any better than I can?  I
dunno!

We've tried both the 6.3 and 7.0.1 api's and neither work.  I have on API

Re: Workflow

2007-01-30 Thread Lucero, Michelle - IST contractor
Hi, PL.Saravanan:
 
I have a suggestion, but it might be a performance killer.  
 
Create an active link that fires on Interval every 3 seconds, where
$FIELDLABEL$ = my field, that sets your counter field with the length
of the text.  Or, with the Field Size - length of the current text.
 
Example:  Let's say I have a Description field with 1000 characters
Execute On: Interval, Gain Focus on Description
Basic Qual:  $FIELDLABEL$ = Description
Set Fields Action:  
My CounterField:  LENGTH(Description)   This will give me the length of
the text.

Or, Set Fields Action
Or, CounterField:  1000 - LENGTH(Description)  This will give the space
remaining in the field.
 
I've tested it on ARS 6.3 P20 and Remedy User 6.3 P20.  
The Active link will stop once the focus is lost from the field.
 
The three second interval makes it seem kind of slow for fast typists,
but it works.

fieldlike real time information and not populating it after losing
focus or something...

What I am trying to do is while you tying into a text field it should
display how many characters are left for you to type in another text
field like the example below. 

 

Any Ideas?

Hi David,

  You're correct.  There were a few more files found to be
missing from
the manual install ability of patch 020 that we had to update.
I've
checked with Support and all of the files should now be
available for 
those admins that wish to install the files manually.

  The installer method, which was unaffected by all this, is
still there
as well for those that want to use it.

  The README may have to be tweaked one more time to make the 
instructions clearer, but the actual code files should not
change again.
At least, that's what I've been told.  The README should read:

Installing the patch by replacing the files on Unix:

 

1) Stop the AR System and Email Engine (arsystem stop)

2) Save the original copies of the following files:

emaildaemon.jar - email install path

ar*.jar - email install path 

libar*.* - email install path

3) Copy the *.jar libar*.*,libx*.*,libi*.* files from the patch
to
email install path.

4) Restart AR System (arsystem start), email engine will be
started by 
armonitor.

The enhancement request for the full client and the Midtier would be great
but there is an alternative with AL workflow and the interval.
Granted it has a minimum of 3 seconds but you could fire a set fields on
interval that counts the length of the current field and subtracts it from
the known max length of the field.
Now there is the issue of trying to activate/deactivate the interval so it
only runs when needed. Maybe inside an AL Guide?

Re: CMDB 2.01 supported with Helpdesk 6.0 Application?

2007-01-30 Thread Roger Justice
I think it is due to the fact that since they decided to re-design the whole 
thing and did not anticipate having it work with 6 that they left out 
datapoints and workflow logic that 6 uses and now they have to re-invent the 
wheel. I would think that the Remedy Sales holdovers would have suggested that 
CMDB 2 work with ITSM 6 to ease the transition however we all know that there 
are very few legacy Remedy Sales staff left.

Do you know if CMDB version 2 is supported with a Helpdesk 6.0 application?

I still can't get it to work on Windows even with the newer files.  For
some reason it doesn't try to log in to the database using ARAdmin and
instead seems to pass a null value to SQL Server.

Hopefully support gets back to me with a solution because it would be
nice to have enough confidence in this patch before the daylight savings

   Frank,

   Hum... based on the limited info you provided I am not sure
where the
   break down is. But here is some information that might help you
figure
   it out based on the rest of the data you see in the logs.

   ( I am only talking about outbound email here. )

   What the Email Engine does is login to the ARS sever (using the
   application password) and get the Email Config info. Assuming
that
   works then it should be able to also read data from the AR
System
   Email Messages form. It will use the Email Config info to do
the
   right thing with messages that are waiting to be sent. ('Send
   Message' = Yes)

   If the Email Engine is getting this far and failing to connect
to the
   SMTP server then I think you will only see errors in the email
engine
   logs. (But you might also see AR System Email Error Log form
entries
   too.)


   ON the other hand

   If the Email Engine is unable to talk to the ARS server (via the
   application password) then it will not even be able to read the
Email
   Config form or the AR System Email Messages form.


   So if that Authentication error is specific to the SMTP server,
then
   you likely need to fix the data in the MailBox Config form. (or
maybe
   your NT Account has been locked/disabled/password changed?)

   If the Authentication error is specific to the Email Engine
login to
   ARS, then you need to updates is application password in it's
config
   file. (See the docs for details.)

   HTH.

Re: Issues since patch #19 or #20 - Uh-Oh

2007-01-30 Thread Carey Matthew Black

Was this release tested?  No sarcasm intended.

A customer should reasonably expect that before QA (Quality Assurance)
gets their hands on a patch that the release would be finalized and
any problems that QA finds would be fixed (and spawn a new release set
to be retested by QA) before it is released to the customers. The QA
approved release should be the exact form that it was released to QA,
because there were zero bugs/problems found by QA.

I mean if QA has Engineering do the install/setup it is not exactly a
fair test now is it? ( Well, it certainly does not test everything
that obviously needs to be tested. )

Hi, PL.Saravanan:
 
I have a suggestion, but it might be a performance killer.  
 
Create an active link that fires on Interval every 3 seconds, where
$FIELDLABEL$ = my field, that sets your counter field with the length
of the text.  Or, with the Field Size - length of the current text.
 
Example:  Let's say I have a Description field with 1000 characters
Execute On: Interval, Gain Focus on Description
Basic Qual:  $FIELDLABEL$ = Description
Set Fields Action:  
My CounterField:  LENGTH(Description)   This will give me the length of
the text.

Or, Set Fields Action
Or, CounterField:  1000 - LENGTH(Description)  This will give the space
remaining in the field.
 
I've tested it on ARS 6.3 P20 and Remedy User 6.3 P20.  
The Active link will stop once the focus is lost from the field.
 
The three second interval makes it seem kind of slow for fast typists,
but it works.

Error while creating a view form (ORA-00904)

2007-01-30 Thread Bezhenar, Dmitry
Hello List,
 
I've set up a connection between ORACLE and MS SQL server using tg4msql.
Now I'm trying to create a view form directly on the MS SQL table ([EMAIL 
PROTECTED])
 
After clicking on the LOAD button it shows me the list of fields and I choose 
the unique identifier.
When I click the CREATE button it shows me the following error -
 
Failure during SQL operation to the database : ORA-00904: ROLEID: invalid 
identifier (ARERR 552).

After switching on the sql logging I found an SQL statement, which fires this 
error -
 
CREATE VIEW T3294 (C1) AS SELECT RoleID FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL 
PROTECTED] 
 
I tried to input the same statement using SQL'plus - it really fires Oracle 
error - 
ORA-00904: ROLEID: invalid identifier
 
At the same time if I type RoleID in quotes it works -
SELECT RoleID FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
 
Anybody knows a workaround for this.
 
Thank you.
 
PS: I need this view form in order to be able to modify data in MS SQL tables.

 Actually,  you're wrong. Safari is probably more standards compliant than IE -

 It's not hard to make something work with all browsers, bearing in mind that
 all browsers deviate from the standards in some way. BMC have simply chosen
 not to, I assume because of cost/lack of skills.

Re: (ISSXXXXXXXX, 3-Medium) SupID:XXXXXX (rant)

2007-01-30 Thread strauss
Hey, if they were using ITSM 7, you would find that all of your requests
were not only Status=New but stuck In Process, meaning that they
failed to create incidents and are stuck in the system. BTW, when that
happens, a transaction rollback just took place on your SQL database
server! In your case, it would be because of the BMC Custom filter named
SRM:REQ:OnSubmit_RejectTonyWorthington. I think there's one in their
system with my name on it, too.

Consider the Requester Console; some of the most interesting
documentation in the BMC Remedy Service Desk: Incident Management 7.0
User Guide (which is extremely content-sparse on most topics), is on how
to operate as the Request Master and track down service requests that
failed to properly create incidents. This module is so problematic that
they felt that they had to include the tools to manage the failures! I
guess I should be glad - it's like getting a tire jack with a new car -
it's a component that is _expected_ to fail, so the repair tools are
standard. I'm just not sure I like having a public interface to my
customers that is so easily deflated.

Perhaps BMC should update its web page to more accurately describe for us

I bet you're right about that, Roger.  I agree that they didn't anticipate
that so many customers would see ITSM 7 and say ...not so much - we'll

I think it is due to the fact that since they decided to re-design the whole
thing and did not anticipate having it work with 6 that they left out
datapoints and workflow logic that 6 uses and now they have to re-invent the
wheel. I would think that the Remedy Sales holdovers would have suggested
that CMDB 2 work with ITSM 6 to ease the transition however we all know that
there are very few legacy Remedy Sales staff left.

There are 2 questions: 
1. Upgrade CMDB 1.1 to 2.X with existing ITSM 6.x 
2. CMDB new install with ITSM 6.X 
 
A lot of information has been passed through the list the only problem is
BMC has not officially released the patch needed to do either of the above.

ARLogAnalyzer output

2007-01-30 Thread Thad Esser
Hello,

I haven't had much occasion to use the log analyzer very much, and I want 
to make sure I'm interpreting the results correctly as part of thread 
tuning.  In determining if I need to increase my threads, which column is 
more important, the AVG Idle Time or the MIN Idle Time?  I can see it 
either way and was hoping someone would share their experience.

Thanks,

** 
Hello List,
 
I've set up a connection between ORACLE and MS SQL server using tg4msql.
Now I'm trying to create a view form directly on the MS SQL table ([EMAIL 
PROTECTED])
 
After clicking on the LOAD button it shows me the list of fields and I choose 
the unique identifier.
When I click the CREATE button it shows me the following error -
 
Failure during SQL operation to the database : ORA-00904: ROLEID: invalid 
identifier (ARERR 552).

After switching on the sql logging I found an SQL statement, which fires this 
error -
 
CREATE VIEW T3294 (C1) AS SELECT RoleID FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL 
PROTECTED] 
 
I tried to input the same statement using SQL'plus - it really fires Oracle 
error - 
ORA-00904: ROLEID: invalid identifier
 
At the same time if I type RoleID in quotes it works -
SELECT RoleID FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
 
Anybody knows a workaround for this.
 
Thank you.
 
PS: I need this view form in order to be able to modify data in MS SQL tables.

We have portmapper, and fixed TCP.  Netcool is using the AR_TCP_PORT

Netcool logs show sucessful connection, but it shows the same message when

Well, there are defaults that come with the connector... but I have API 
logging on the server and am not even seeing netcool attempt the login, 
even though the netcool adapter says connected sucessfully

The schema provided with netcool has been imported, and is named correctly

I've accomplished this task before, having alerts written into Alerts

The enhancement request for the full client and the Midtier would be
great but there is an alternative with AL workflow and the interval.
Granted it has a minimum of 3 seconds but you could fire a set fields on
interval that counts the length of the current field and subtracts it
from the known max length of the field.
Now there is the issue of trying to activate/deactivate the interval so
it only runs when needed. Maybe inside an AL Guide?

Part of me wants to say 'you can't'...because filters run on the server not
the client...and your arsperl program is a client.  I would think that you
would create the filter to fire on submit...and then have arsperl perform
the submit...the server should take care of the execution of the filter.

Darshana, Rick, Dan  Saravanan,
 
The enhancement request for the full client and the Midtier would be great
but there is an alternative with AL workflow and the interval.
Granted it has a minimum of 3 seconds but you could fire a set fields on
interval that counts the length of the current field and subtracts it from
the known max length of the field.
Now there is the issue of trying to activate/deactivate the interval so it
only runs when needed. Maybe inside an AL Guide?

You could possibly do it in a View field, using either some OLE or Java
function.  That would be my best guess.  I can't think of any native ARS way
to do it.

I concur or

It sounds like something BMC Remedy  could add to the Web Client.

Of course all such things will add weight to the web client and slow things
down.

what Rick has suggested)

Hi,

 

Is it possible to populate a field as you typing in another field..like real
time information and not populating it after losing focus or something.

What I am trying to do is while you tying into a text field it should
display how many characters are left for you to type in another text field
like the example below. 

 

Any Ideas?

Re: Firing a filter with arsperl

2007-01-30 Thread Michiel Beijen

If you'd submit data with ARSPerl this is being treated as any other
method of data entry. That is, the filter will fire depending on the
Run If qualification and the Submit / Modify / Merge checkboxes.

Re: Firing a filter with arsperl

2007-01-30 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
I may be a bit confused here ... Since you have a filter to do your work
you can have it fire on any modify or submit.  If you only want it to
fire for a specific process then you can create a Display Only field
that the perl program puts a special value in when modifying the record
and have the filter use that in the Run-If.

 Carey,
 
 Actually,  you're wrong. Safari is probably more standards compliant 
 than IE - it's built on the KHTML rendering engine.
 
 It's not hard to make something work with all browsers, bearing in 
 mind that all browsers deviate from the standards in some way. BMC 
 have simply chosen not to, I assume because of cost/lack of skills.

Re: SSO Problem: AREA being called more than once

2007-01-30 Thread Mikhail Serate
Hello Ben,
I looked at the Configuration Guide's list of the parameters related to area
and notification and this is what i found:
 
Option:
External-Authentication-Return-Data-Capabilities
 
Description:
A bit mask that allows you to specify the return data capabilities for the
current AREA plugin. This setting does not control the AREA plugin, it
merely desecribes the behavior of the plugin, allowing for server
optimization. Acceptable values are as follows:
- Bit 1 (Value = 1) - no email address will be provided
- Bit 2 (Value = 2) - no notify mechanism will be provided
- Bit 3 (Value = 4) - no group identifiers will be provided
- Bit 4 (Value = 8) - no license information will be provided.
- Bit 5 (Value = 16) - no notification user validation should occur.
The default is 0, meaning the server wil attempt to retrieve this
information from AREA. A value of 7 will allow the server to potentially
reduce the number of AREA related calls during notification processing.
A value of 16 will allow the server to avoid using AREA for notification
user validation and information retrieval. Use this setting for sites using
a form of AREA that applies user names as email addresses and where there is
no benefit to accessing an authentication database.
 
So if I put the External-Authentication-Return-Data-Capabilities in the
ar.cfg and set it to 16, will ARS stop calling AREA twice?

Re: Issues since patch #19 or #20 - Uh-Oh

2007-01-30 Thread Lucero, Michelle - IST contractor
Carey,
Maybe in this case, WE ARE QA?  

On a good note, we did go the installation executables path.  We
upgraded our ARS, Email, and Flashboards 6.3 P18 to ARS 6.3 P20 on a
Windows 2003/Remote SQL Server environment. We uninstalled Mid-Tier
7.0.0 Patch 1 from our Windows 2003/IIS/Servlet Exec server, before
installing Mid-Tier 7.0.1 Patch 1 on Windows 2003/IIS 6/Apache Tomcat
1.6.0.
All components were upgraded with the installation executables.

So far so good, but its in our dev environment.

Was this release tested?  No sarcasm intended.

A customer should reasonably expect that before QA (Quality Assurance)
gets their hands on a patch that the release would be finalized and
any problems that QA finds would be fixed (and spawn a new release set
to be retested by QA) before it is released to the customers. The QA
approved release should be the exact form that it was released to QA,
because there were zero bugs/problems found by QA.

I mean if QA has Engineering do the install/setup it is not exactly a
fair test now is it? ( Well, it certainly does not test everything
that obviously needs to be tested. )

We have portmapper, and fixed TCP.  Netcool is using the AR_TCP_PORT setting, 
just to rule out portmapper weirdness

Netcool logs show sucessful connection, but it shows the same message when we
