Sravanan,
You can use macros and call it from escalations or use some third
party application. i think recently we had some discussion on this issue.

to generate the reports in CSV file you can create a macro that would
generate a csv file for a report and then run that macro from an escalation.

Hi,
 
we made a manually report with excel at time. Monthly somebody is making a 
report of SLM:Measurement and HPD:HelpDesk. Put it in a prepared excel sheet 
and calculate all the charts.
Our first approach was the reporting in Remedy itself but it was not very 
flexible.
Now we rebuild the exel reports with chrystal reports so that we can open the 
reports in Remedy directly.

Re: Mid-Tier and run process

Gary,

Since you try to create a directory on the Remedy server, would it
work to fire the active link on the server by putting @@: in front of
it (and of course correcting the paths)?

All, I'm trying to do a run process via an active link on a button from the
mid tier. The run process does the following:



c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c md $Upload
File Path$



I am presented with the above error. Upon investigation, we found that on
the mid tier, you cannot do a run-process action that returns a value. We
are not asking that the cmd command return a value, however this appears to
be what the system is thinking. I'm guessing it is the standard output if
you run the MD command in a shell window that the system is catching as a
return, or maybe the command does send a return code if successful or
whatever. Any how, the directory is not getting created.



Has anyone ever used a button on the mid tier to create a folder directory?
If so, how did you get it to work?

External authentication with multiple domains

2007-05-09 Thread Niklas Asplund

Hi everyone
I have recently upgraded to ARS 7 and I'm thinking of using the new
possibilities with AREA LDAP against multiple domains.


From the beginning I have only users in one domain, and I the set the system

up for authentication against this domain.
Later on, new users came along that belongs to a different domain.
So I decided to go with a different login name standard for those users.
Domain\Account (internal authentication)

So there I stand, I have one set of users with there AD account as
ARS-Loginname (That is authenticating against the AD), and one set of users
with "domain\account" as there ARS-login (authenticated by the AR Server)

So finally, the question:
When you set up a new LDAP connection in the AREA LDAP Configuration form,
you can specify a different "User Search Filter".
I can't find any AD value that matches the syntax that I use in ARS
(domain\account), is it possible to concat two different fields in the LDAP
source to build up to the same loginname-syntax??
Or does anyone know of a value in the AD that holds domain\account
(domain\samaccountname)
Maybe it can be solved with Authentication alias...

Any ideas how I could be able to solve this problem??

Re: Email Maximum Sizes

2007-05-09 Thread David Durling

Eric,

I'm not sure your issue is related to your version of Remedy, if you're 
talking about a incoming text message.  We run ARS 6.0.1 with a 6.0.1 
email engine (don't have patch levels handy) on Solaris 9, Oracle 9iR2, 
and are able to process incoming mail as large as what you mention.  I 
sent a 197kb message to our server to confirm, and no email log error 
was generated, and a ticket was created.


Sorry, I don't have a suggestion as to what the issue might be.  If 
there's a 32 kb limit, I think it's on outgoing mail.

Hi All, 


We had a user send a few emails to Remedy, each of which was 162 kb.  In each 
case, the AR System Email Error Logs shows the following message:

	Restarting Thread Creator Module : AGaa47f025QSOY8wAAxkEA 

Our typical emails are 1 kb - 10 kb. 

We are currently running email engine version 6.00.01 Patch 1325 for the email engine, under JRE: 1.4.2, AIX 5.2. 


ARServer is 6.03.00 Patch 21, running on the same server as the email engine.  
We generally get right around 100 emails each day.

Can anyone with a more recent version of the email engine tell me if it is able 
to handle emails close to 162 kb (or ideally larger)?

Re: DSL console not displaying data

RIck,
 
I don't know if you followed the instructions where you only tried to do one
import at a time.  If you did that will not work.  There is a KB that says
that you actually have to click all the boxes on the import console and start
the import.  This will take about 5 hours, but it does get the job done.
 
Hopes this helps.

Hi George,

Either do a ARExecuteProcess("Application-Generate-GUID xxx"), to retrieve
one from the server.

Or create one of your own. It should not be very hard, and would save a
call to the server.

Re: DSL console not displaying data

2007-05-09 Thread Axton

This was my experience as well.  Once the installer (.bat file)
finishes importing, there is a secondary step within a form to import
the data.  Once I did this, the data all shows in the DSL frontend.

Re: DSL console not displaying data

2007-05-09 Thread Rick Cook
I looked at that patch (DSL patch 3) yesterday, specifically at whether it
had more current data than the IM patch 3 included with it - it had files
dated a month EARLIER (October 2006) than those included with the ITSM 7.0.2
patch 3 distribution.  Since I still have those data files in the install
directory, I will let the installer use those.
 
I'm still checking to see if there's anything useful in the DSL patch 1516 -
it may have some code updates that are worth importing.  Given BMC's recent
track record on patches, I'm not installing it until I am 100% clear on what
it will do to my existing system.

I define VERY compelling as many of the current problems we have encountered
with the ITSM 7 suite patch 003 that have caused me to defer implementation
until they are fixed; I am hoping that patch 004 will fix some of them, but
I won't believe it until we install it and test it again with live users.
Until then, the application suite simply is not ready for production use,
and I refuse to inflict it upon people who are trying to get real work done
(and succeeding today with ITSM 5.5.1).

The way the patches work will continue to endanger any customizations, and
there will have to be some before we can put it into production since the
customer search dialogs fail to follow even previous ITSM apps, and do not
provide for searches on the login name - our key identifier for who the
customer is.

Lovely.  I think it's time for someone with a big thinking cap at BMC to
take a bit of time to think up and implement a patch process that customers
WANT to follow; one that is worth the investment of time and effort.  The
current one doesn't have any sane person doing handsprings in the hallways.
Maybe they're hamstrung by some flaws in the application architecture, but
that shouldn't be the customer's problem to deal with.

I just installed patch 3, and would have to see a VERY compelling reason to

Has anyone seen or heard anything further on the patch 004 developed for
Change Management 7.x and the Service Desk 7.x applications?  The technical
bulletins went out last Wednesday, and are available on SupportWeb under
documentation, but the patches themselves have yet to appear in the "Patch
Downloads for BMC Remedy Products" interface.
Rooting around in the ftp paths I found their files dated 4-18-2007, and the
readme's indicate that they will be rather involved to install, with the
added attraction of destroying the incident management task template add-on
(which has a serious flaw, anyway) and I have to assume that they will also
wipe out the Remedy Knowledge Management integrations that I have had to add
manually to the incident, problem, and service request forms.  Seems like
these application patches break as much as they fix, in their current
incarnations.

Re: Midtier 7.01 p2 install errror on new server

2007-05-09 Thread Axton

This is a problem.  To resolve it, make sure the path and/or the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH include the location of the remedy api files.  You can
safely use the files located in /path/to/remedy/api/lib directory.

There are other alternatives to address this as well:

Re: Why Import People into ITSM 7 at All?

2007-05-09 Thread Robert Molenda
Very valid points on "all views and sides" of this conundrum...

 

Every customer's situation is unique, and has to be handled accordingly.

 

Many customers continue to struggle with the "Unique Data Source" for
many items, and the "people information" is just one of them. (take
Discovery / inventory tools between Unix / windows as an example)

 

Sometimes it is a very difficult and diverse topology of systems and
processes which even further complicate the issue concerning this data.

 

However, in order to provide timely and guaranteed service(s) as an ITSM
application this data "must exist somewhere".

 

At one point, during the implementation discussions of our "IDMS
(Identity Management System) -eDir solution" it was discussed as to
"what application", and obviously with the flexibility, ARSystem was on
the list... In the end, it was a tie between eDir and a ARSystem based
solution and the decision was to go with eDir. Fortunately for me, this
puts all of the "process issues" (which change on a daily cycle) in the
hands of the eDir team instead of mine :-)

 

I believe the main points in having the data inside ITSM, are:

 

You can sanity check / Clean Up the data during the data-feed-process to
prevent failures in your system (field length, value selections, etc).

 

ITSM 7 extends the permission-model using this information, and is
required for User setup (if you stay inside the box).

 

If the ITSM Application is functional, so is the "people data", because
if AD/eDir/SAP/xxx is down -or- has performance issues, the users
complain about the ITSM application and not the connected data-source

 

Unfortunately, or really fortunately for us, nothing is the same "cookie
cutter setup" at any 2 locations. Many times there are different
implementations of ITSM inside the same company. 

 

Of course this leaves me at the conundrum point to ask:

 

If companies consider people Assets instead of Expenses, why CTM:People
and not CMDB->Person Information???

 

CMDB has "Federated Data" concepts already!

 

Whoops, that is another can of worms :-)

 

GOOD TOPIC AND COMMENTS THOUGH!!! I know I like this list for things
other than "it is broken"...

Login.jsp Manipulation

2007-05-09 Thread L. J. Head
I, as most of us do, have users that bookmark the login screen

http:///arsys/shared/login.jsp

When they do that they get an error about not having all of the parameters
mapped, they click the 'return to home' button...re-login and they get to
the home page.  I got sick of fielding these production support questions so
I came to the list and inquired about how to eliminate them.  I was told
that if I change these two lines it would work grand




If you hard-code those two lines with values it works great...any time
anyone gets to the login page and login they go to the home pagewhich is
great with exception of hard coded URL's that are designed to take them to
specific entries instead of the home page.  So I got the brilliant idea to
Check to see if nextPage is null...and if it is...set it to /arsys/home...if
not...let it be what it isbut there is the rub...I'm not a JavaScript
GURU to be able to do that...any suggestions?...I've tried several things I
found on the web for checking JSP variables via Javascript but none of them
seem able to properly return the current value of nextPage.

Re: Need help with filter qual

2007-05-09 Thread SUBSCRIBE arslist Neel
Rick & Fred,

Thank you for your input. Turned out that we have record-locking in
place. So when a user clicks a record, it's locked by him/her so that
another user can not modify it at the same time.

And the active link that executes on double-click pushes user-name to
the record-lock tempfield which cause the filter to fire as it's an
"update". I'll have to re-think about how to handle this (update the
incident only when there's an actual update and not update due to
record-locking).

Thank you everybody for helping me out, this list rocks!! :)

It sound like you may have some workflow that is doing a "Commit 
Changes" even if nothing is changed.  One way to check that is to open 
an incident and close it without making any changes and see if the 
modified date reflects a change.

You can also use the modified date field to determine if an incident was

just updated by the logged-in use.

Re: Why Import People into ITSM 7 at All?

2007-05-09 Thread strauss
The main reason I have to put entries for everyone active in eDir into
CTM:People and User is so that I can have the Requester Console and
Remedy Knowledge Management working for our customers
(faculty/staff/students).  They authenticate to eDir via AREA, but need
group membership in Incident Submitter and KMSAC-KMSUser in order to
operate the ITSM 7 console and forms.  Our eDir implementation contains
no group information or structure whatsoever, and since they are in the
throes of bringing up Active Directory and Exchange in the next few
months, they are planning no changes to eDir.
 
I guess I could be talking to them about AD, but since I have always had
a separate forest and will not be added to the enterprise forest, that
may not work.  What would the issues be with moving my integration for
ITSM 7 to AD???  I would need to have some _very_ specific needs defined
- they are completely immersed in a Dell-advised compressed-timeframe
conversion from NDS-GroupWise to AD-Exchange 2007 and not very receptive
to any additional requirements.  They have no immediate plan to drop
eDir since dozens of other campus systems from PeopleSoft to WebCT
authenticate to it the same way that my AR servers do, and draw
directory information from it that it loads from PeopleSoft.

Yes, got this on all servers I have installed ITSM.

On one server it takes approx 15 minutes to restart the server, and
the installation scripts wait for the server to be avaible.

Why it takes 15 minutes to restart? It got more than 200k records in

actually appears to have solved my problems with searching/displaying
RightAnswers content properly under the General index.  This has _never_
worked correctly, through _many_ different iterations of that software,
so there is hope that some of the ITSM bugs will finally be addressed as
well. Of course, none of the 7 defects I have open were included in the

Java.lang.NullPOinterException error in outgoing email messages

Hi Everyone,

We are trying to get a new Remedy system going on a Red-Hat
Linux server (ARS 7.01 patch 2).  Most outgoing AR System
Email Messages entries show an error log (AR System Email

java.lang.NullPointerException

The email does go out in spite of the error message. 
Occasionally one slips thru without this error.  Most of the
time the "Send Message" field changes to "Error", but
sometimes it changes to "Sent" in spite of the java error. 
The same filter or escalation can send out the same email at
different times, and sometimes the error log will get created
and sometimes it won't.

I've tried turning on debugging but wasn't able to find any
errors that told me anything.

Any ideas?

Email Attachment into a ticket attachment pool

All,

I have seen similar threads, but I haven't found an answer yet.

 

I have some emails that are forwarded to our system where based on the
subject line a ticket is created. If an attachment is included I would
like to have this attachment added to the Ticket's attachment pool. Any
ideas?

There has to be a way to do it seeing as though you can send a template
email in to submit a ticket with an attachment and it happens? I just
need to know how to do it when it's not in a template format.

 

Thanks!

source form and copied the fields from that form onto my control panel.  I
tried to save...it complains that I cannot use field ID's in the < 100
range...so those fields cannot be saved...interestingly enough when I was
moving things around I tried to actually delete these fields from the
form...it complained that I cannot delete core fieldsso I had to go into
the DB tab for both fields...remove their Field ID's before I could delete
the non created fields off of my form...interesting logic...I can't create
the fields because they are reserved...but I also can't create them for the
same reason.

Re: ITSM 7.0.x Patch 004

2007-05-09 Thread P Romain ARSlist
You'll have to use patch 4 if you want to install the new SRM module.

You'll also patch 2 of ARServer as it has the SRM application license in its
license type menu.

I don't plan to trailblaze with this other than in a VMWare environment
though!

Re: Email Attachment into a ticket attachment pool

2007-05-09 Thread Shafqat Ayaz
Hi Amanda
  are you using the Remedy email forms? If so, look in the AR System Email 
Attachments. For each email that hits the system, there is an entry created in 
the AR System Email Messages form, the attachment is in the form I mentioned 
above. All you need to do is run some workflow that will Push the attachment to 
the attachment pool on your ticket. 
  If you are not using the Email forms, then let me know, what you are doing 
and I can suggest some alternative method. If you are unsure on how to use the 
above forms, drop me a line and I will explain it in detail
   
  thanks

  I have some emails that are forwarded to our system where based on the

have this attachment added to the Ticket’s attachment pool. Any ideas?
  There has to be a way to do it seeing as though you can send a template email

how to do it when it’s not in a template format.

Interesting - I'm already up to 7.0.01 Patch 002 on the servers since it
fixed an AREA SSL issue, but if the pricing model for SRM remained as
incredible as I last heard it at a User group meeting, it will be a moot
point for us.  Unless the proposed pricing changed from ludicrous to
reasonable, ITSM will remain in the dark ages as far as the
customer-facing interface is concerned; no matter how good it is, the
SRM portal will be unaffordable for all but the largest organizations.

Re: DSL console not displaying data

2007-05-09 Thread Rick Cook
OK, I just got done deleting and reimporting the data.  Re-ran the Import
utility, THIS TIME CHECKING ALL OF THE BOXES, which took about 90 minutes,
but it appears to have been successful.

One lesson learned that I would suggest to anyone else who has this problem
is to start out not deleting the records in the PDL forms - just change the
Data Status of each to Validated.  If I understand the process correctly,
that will reset the records to be able to be "Imported" by the utility in a
way that allows them to be seen by the DSL console.  That's just an educated
guess, but probably worth trying as an interim step to deleting and
re-importing all of the records.

This was my experience as well.  Once the installer (.bat file) finishes
importing, there is a secondary step within a form to import the data.  Once
I did this, the data all shows in the DSL frontend.

How to send email notification to a Group ?

2007-05-09 Thread Chapman, Colin
Hi Listers,
 
I thought this would be easy, but I cannot figure out the problem.
I want my escalation filter to send a Notify email to $Assigned Group$
but no emails go out.
I have checked lots of settings, error logs, archives, KB, guides etc.
but no luck.
Originally I had Mecanism Email, and changed that to User Default.
I am not using templates or include fields.

** 
Very valid points on “all views and sides” of this conundrum…
 
Every customer’s situation is unique, and has to be handled accordingly.
 
Many customers continue to struggle with the “Unique Data Source” for many 
items, and the “people information” is just one of them. (take Discovery / 
inventory tools between Unix / windows as an example)
 
Sometimes it is a very difficult and diverse topology of systems and processes 
which even further complicate the issue concerning this data.
 
However, in order to provide timely and guaranteed service(s) as an ITSM 
application this data “must exist somewhere”.
 
At one point, during the implementation discussions of our “IDMS (Identity 
Management System) –eDir solution” it was discussed as to “what application”, 
and obviously with the flexibility, ARSystem was on the list… In the end, it 
was a tie between eDir and a ARSystem based solution and the decision was to go 
with eDir. Fortunately for me, this puts all of the “process issues” (which 
change on a daily cycle) in the hands of the eDir team instead of mine J
 
I believe the main points in having the data inside ITSM, are:
 
You can sanity check / Clean Up the data during the data-feed-process to 
prevent failures in your system (field length, value selections, etc).
 
ITSM 7 extends the permission-model using this information, and is required for 
User setup (if you stay inside the box).
 
If the ITSM Application is functional, so is the “people data”, because if 
AD/eDir/SAP/xxx is down –or– has performance issues, the users complain about 
the ITSM application and not the connected data-source
 
Unfortunately, or really fortunately for us, nothing is the same “cookie cutter 
setup” at any 2 locations. Many times there are different implementations of 
ITSM inside the same company. 
 
Of course this leaves me at the conundrum point to ask:
 
If companies consider people Assets instead of Expenses, why CTM:People and not 
CMDB->Person Information???
 
CMDB has “Federated Data” concepts already!
 
Whoops, that is another can of worms J
 
GOOD TOPIC AND COMMENTS THOUGH!!! I know I like this list for things other than 
“it is broken”…

Re: Querying Active Directory

2007-05-09 Thread Jason Miller
I have seen that with 6.3 and AD. After the first set of results were
returned successfully, the plug-in server would hang on any queries after
that. I had to restart ARS or it did appear to work again if I let it sit
for a while.

 

I did not have this problem if I used the AD global catalog. To use the GC
add :3268 after your ldap server's FQDN. The problem I then had was the
attribute I wanted was not listed in the GC.

 

I currently have ARS 7.0.01 p001 pulling data from a non AD LDAP directory
(not really sure what vendor it is) and have not see this issue.

 

Example:

ldap://DC.domain.com:3268/DC=domain,DC=com??sub?(objectclass=user)

timeout for consuming webservices?

2007-05-09 Thread Andrew Hicox

I have a filter that calls a webservice to set an enum field value.
While the service appears to execute correctly on the far end, the 
field value is never set by the filter, and I see what appear to be 
timeout errors in arerr.log.


The service does take on average 3 or 4 seconds to respond. How do I 
change the timeout for calling webservices? I can't find it in the 
documentation, and setting the process timeout appears to have no 
effect.


thanks everyone.

Re: Email Attachment into a ticket attachment pool

2007-05-09 Thread SUBSCRIBE arslist Neel
Amanda,

 

We had the exact same requirement for our clients but after some
research, it didn't make sense to include those attachments on
incident-ticket as they are already on email. What I mean by this is
that we have a table field on HPD:Help Desk form and that table gets
filled by all the emails from 'AR System Email Messages' that are
related to that particular incident. This allows us to have all inbound
and outbound emails at one place in incident-ticket and we don't have to
store duplicate attachments. Email Attachments are killing the db-space
as it is so I can't even imagine storing those attachments again on
incident attachment table.

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Amanda

are you using the Remedy email forms? If so, look in the AR System Email
Attachments. For each email that hits the system, there is an entry
created in the AR System Email Messages form, the attachment is in the
form I mentioned above. All you need to do is run some workflow that
will Push the attachment to the attachment pool on your ticket. 

If you are not using the Email forms, then let me know, what you are
doing and I can suggest some alternative method. If you are unsure on
how to use the above forms, drop me a line and I will explain it in

There has to be a way to do it seeing as though you can send a

I just need to know how to do it when it's not in a template format.

This is a problem. To resolve it, make sure the path and/or the 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH include the location of the remedy api files. You can 
safely use the files located in /path/to/remedy/api/lib directory. 
There are other alternatives to address this as well: - place the 
files located in midtier/WEB-INF/lib in the tomcat shared library directory 
If you deploy other apps that use the remedy jni, you will be forced 
to place them somewhere in the tomcat classloader. Axton Grams

Re: ITSM 7 People import methodology

2007-05-09 Thread Roney Samuel Varghese

Dear Rick,

We had initially planned to load the data feed via EIE through RLO, however
our EIE got all messed up and then we had to shift to using the staging form
on a view form. Our staging form does all the validations before we submit
data to any of the actual ITSM forms. The Stages we go through are mentioned
below

1. Get the GUID using the CTM:CFGPeopleTagNumgenerator form
2. Submit the entry to the CTM:People Form
3. Receive the person Id
4. Create the permission entries for the default user depending on the
company the user belongs to using the
CTM:People Permission Groups form (We have multitenancy turned ON)
5. Submit the permission changes to the User form.

There were some particular filters on the CTM:People form that checked for
the access rights for the user AR ESCALATOR which had to be modified.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Roney Samuel Varghese

  - Refine or add to an existing article
  - Looking for content on ITSM 7
  - Looking for content on undocumented debugging methods
  - Looking for content on new features
  - Looking for content on integration methods
* Get involved with an open source project:
  - Engage in discussions: http://lists.arswiki.org/listinfo
  - Become a developer: http://arswiki.org/projects
  - Start a project: http://arswiki.org/projects
* Publish or vote on a bug or rfe:
