Re: citrix and remedy
Chris, You can deploy your remedy tools / server on a citrix farm. You need to have a citrix server that will reside in the same network as your application server and all Remedy tools will be installed on this citrix server. Access this server desktop via the citrix client and all process will be sent between the client / server on the same network and it reduces your network latency issues (citrix being a thin client) Satya On 7/9/07, Rakshit Bhandary [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ** Hi Chris, In my previous workplace, i have seen Remedy user tool being made available through Citrix.

Re: Difference between Missed and Missed Goal: Remedy SLA 6
Hi Maus, When loading the SLA 6.0 it is important that you load all the patches for it. There are many workflow errors in the module OOTB. The next thing to be aware of is that the status Missed Goal is a status value added in version 6.0 (I cant recall it in 5.6 although I could be wrong). To me Missed Goal is the same as In Process but I have passed my SLA Due Date. Missed is the status given when the SLA has been completed and has Missed its SLA Due Date. Now having said this the most important thing is the Status of Missed Goal If you have your SLAs set up in groups and SLAs change if the priority changes you would expect the new SLA (created when you changed the priority) would inherit details from the current one and the current one would disappear. This does in fact happen and is what goes on in the filter guide SLA:Measurement:TakeOver. However if you look at the filter SLA:Measurement:TakeOver_Lookup you will see that the set fields if qualification is as follows. ( 'SLA_Main Group' = $SLA_Main Group$) AND ( 'Application_InstanceID' = $Application_InstanceID$) AND ( 'SLA_InstanceID' != $SLA_InstanceID$) AND (( 'MeasurementStatus' = In Process) OR ( 'MeasurementStatus' = Pending) OR ( 'MeasurementStatus' = Attached)) Thus it does not pick up data from an SLA with a measurement Status of Missed Goal. So if you change priority of a call and the current SLA on that call has this status you will end up with 2 slas running. The original which will never complete as the finish criteria has changed (priority is now different) and a second one which will finish, eventually, with a status of Missed or Met. However it will have started at the wrong date/time which will be based on the priority change rather than when the call was logged. Finally, the notification issues you are having could relate to a fault in the ownership take over where when it deletes the original SLA and its notifications (if there are any) it also deletes the new notifications as well leaving you with none. This is fixed in patch 1498.

Here´s an easy one: We´ve been stuck with Remedy SLA 6.0 fundamental concepts, trying to understand the difference between missed and missed goal, when monitoring attached SLAs in Helpdesk cases. SLAs are pretty straight forward, there are two different SLAs: Response and Resolution Time ... Term and Conditions include something like Impact=High and Priority=High, Goals include start measuring Response time when Status=Assigned and stop it when Status=WIP, in the other hand the second SLA goal starts measuring Resolution time when Status is WIP and stop it when it´s Resolved. Milestones include notifications to different users. Why is that two different helpdesk cases with the same data, sometimes show different SLA status, like Missed and sometimes Missed Goal, and sometimes we verify that milestones are not being met, notifications not sent.

Re: Allow external code execution from Outlook
Atul, We have Outlook 2003 SP2 (with all patches), and use a similar process. One of my emails is an HTML form sent by Remedy to managers to approve/deny requests for access to applications or servers. They select their choice and click the Submit button. The html form posts their selection to an ASP.Net application, which in turn, updates the Remedy ticket. The only thing I see different is that you call a JSP file and I call an ASPX file. I am not a Java developer (yet), but it seems that it shouldn't matter to Outlook. I know in Outlook 2007 Microsoft disabled the ability to post data from a submit button in an html form email...directly within Outlook. You can, however select the option to view the email in your browser, which allows you to post the form data from a submit button. Something to check: In Internet Explorer, Tools Internet Options Security Local Intranet click the Sites button. Are all boxes checked? Click the Advanced button. Is the server with the JSP file listed? Are you trying to Submit the response from the email Preview pane? It has been my experience that html forms that post do not work in the Preview pane, and I have to open the email first. Are you using IE 6 or IE 7? Are the results the same in both versions?

I suspect he is asking for that to be narrowed down a bit, or am I confused that that is a region not a specific spot/country? According to wikipedia: One widely used definition of the Middle East is that of the airline industry, maintained by the IATA standards organization. This definition - as of early 2007 - includes Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Palestinian territories, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syrian Arab Republic, United Arab Emirates, Pakistan and Yemen.[10] This definition is used in world-wide airfare and tax calculations for passengers and cargo.

Re: aruser crash
Hi Dipti, this is really hard to say; you will have to run the logging to gain more insights. I guess you should start with the active link and filter logging from the usertool but most of the times this will not be sufficient because of the crashing of the usertool. Set the environment variable ARAPILOGGING=1 before starting the user tool, this will create two files you could use for debugging purposes. I guess you will have to log a ticket to your support partner, supply these files, the workflow, and supply the patch levels and OS details of your server and client. -- Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards Michiel Beijen __ MANSOLUTIONS Energieweg 60-62 3771 NA Barneveld The Netherlands Tel. +31-(0)612968592 Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet http://bsm.mansolutions.nl On 7/9/07, theeptii thamizharasu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ** Hi All I am working on ARS6.3.

Re: Help with Run-If Qualification
Rich, If it is a requirement to set a ticket status Assigned when a user reassigns a ticket it would be better to make a filter that does just that. You can also throw in a message that says This ticket has been set to a Status of Assigned. Run If could be 'TR.Assigned_to' != $NULL$ AND 'TR.Assigned_to' != 'DB.Assigned_to' AND 'TR.Assigned_to' != $USER$ The first parameter should take care of changing the Assigned to and changing it back before the save, the second one checks for the change as compared to what is stored in the database and the third just keeps it from making the Status Assigned if you change the Assigned To to yourself.

Re: Help with Run-If Qualification
It's my understanding that a TR value only exists if it's != to the DB value- it exists because it's different, so the qualification TR.field != $NULL$ is the same as TR.field != DB.field. So ('TR.Assigned To' != $NULL$ AND 'Status' != Assigned) should work. Also, sorry if this is obvious, but TR and DB values can onlu be checked with filters, not Active links.

Re: Escalation
Yes-7200. 2 hours x 60 minutes x 60 seconds = 7200. So the filter should fire on submit and then populate the field in question with $TIMESTAMP$ + 7200. Effectively, then, the filter sets the criteria to be checked and the escalation comes along every fifteen minutes (or whatever time interval is satisfactory to you) and does the checking.

ARS 7.5?
Listers, Has anybody heard any rumors about ARS 7.5 availability? Some time ago, I'd read that it was scheduled for a July, 2007 release. I've hunted around BMCs support website and can't find anything about it. I thought product availability and compatability might show something, and possibly product/patch downloads.

ARS7 install with oracle 10G RAC ... the saga continues ...
Hello everyone: I've managed to get through the (incredibly flawed) solaris 10 arsystem 7 install. This is 7.0.01 patch 2. I'm using oracle 10G client library with a remote database on an oracle 10 Rapid Application Cluster. So ... now the server is INCREDIBLY slow to start. The server is configured to run on a TCP port (1). When I issue the 'arsystem start' command, I get the usual output on the console indicating that the server has started. However, the TCP port is not listening, and of course, no clients can connect to the server. If I wait (approx 7 minutes), I will see the following output on the console: (ARNOTE 0) Server indicates that it's up. (ARNOTE 0) ARMonitor child process (pid:29595) started. ./arplugin Action Request System(R) Fork Daemon Version 7.0.01 patch 002 200704021644 Copyright (c) 2000 - 2006 BMC Software, Inc.

Loaded Web Services plugin properly After the above, the TCP port opens up and clients can connect, and it seems to work well enough. What I presume is happening here is that arserverd must issue some sort of indication that it's completed start up so that arforkd and armonitor can do their thing and start listeners and plugins, and that arserverd is for some reason taking on average 7 minutes to do that. I can't manage to get ANY sort of logging during the 7 minutes of mystery. is there some way to figgure out what the heck is going on durring this period of time (is it timing out DNS? is the db slow to respond? is it waiting on disk access? what is it doing?). We have an identical set up in our dev lab, with the exception that the database server is not a RAC and it's installed on the same machine. The startup is quite snappy on that setup.

Dear Listers, I'm looking for a more elegant solution to a new requirement. Currently on our incident form, we have a tab called account management with about 15 checkboxes (Reset Password, Unlocked Account, Updated Email Address, etc.) for ticket tracking purposes. The requirement is to track who, and to what these values are changed on a submit or modify action. To make these values meaningful, the only way I can think of to satisfy this requirement is to have a filter for each checkbox, perform a set fields action if the transaction value of that checkbox is != NULL and set the action log to something along the lines of $USER$ changed Reset Password to $Reset Password$. Here's where I run into problems. First, when I use the qualification 'TR.Reset Password' != $NULL$ it only detects the change from not checked to checked. I assume this is because a checkbox only has one value. (in this case, Yes) So I changed the qualification to 'Reset Password' != 'DB.Reset Password' This works, but now, when someone unchecks the box, the action log reads mcmanusm changed Reset Password to (blank value because the checkbox only has the yes value) I suspect there's a better, or more elegant way to do this, but I'm a rookie so I'm deferring to the veteran (and I say that lovingly) community for any ideas.

Re: Logging changes
Michael, The TR.field name syntax has caught many of us over the years. You will probably get about 16 different responses to which qualification is most efficient. First, TR.field name is NULL if the field is NULL. One solution is TR.field name != DB.field name. There are other variations checking field name against DB.field name.

Re: Logging changes
So it looks like the question is really how to give NULL an output value. Do you use any temporary character fields in this logging routine? If so you can do something like SUBSTR( LTRIM($CharField$ + No), 1, 3) This way a null would show up as a No. I have also seen people use DB calls for this sort of thing Fred -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of McManus Michael A SSgt HQ 754 ELSG/DOMH Sent: Monday, July 09, 2007 3:20 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: FW: Logging changes Sorry, forgot to include in the original message that we're on 5.1.2.

Re: ARS7 install with oracle 10G RAC ... the saga continues ...
Remedy fetches information from it's data dictionary (e.g., field_disp_prop, field, etc.), then processes it in chunks of 100, 500, or 1000. So if you have a table field_dispprop that has 120k records and 500 records are processed at a time, 15 seconds per chunk, you end up with a start time that totals 3600 seconds (for that part of the startup). If you add a -t parameter to arserverd in the armonitor.conf file, a special startup log file is created. The log file will look something like this: Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6577 Startup TID:3086968512 Set up thread control block with key = 0 Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6582 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize thread local storage block Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6583 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize mutiple-byte environment Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6585 Startup TID:3086968512 InstallDir = /u01/arsystem/arsdev Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6587 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize Server utility Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6599 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize License Library Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6602 Startup TID:3086968512 LicenseFilename = /etc/arsystem/arsdev/arsystem.lic Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6603 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize Language setting and locale Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6610 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize the Decimal Math libray Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6610 Startup TID:3086968512 Open shared catalog Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6648 Startup TID:3086968512 Load encryption shared library Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6653 Startup TID:3086968512 Load encryption static functions Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6654 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize default configuration information Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6654 Startup TID:3086968512 Create Mutexes Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6655 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize parse environment Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6657 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize date time information Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6659 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize notification strings Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6659 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize RPC queue type strings Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6660 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize filter strings Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6662 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize escalation strings Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6662 Startup TID:3086968512 Load system configuration file Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6669 Startup TID:3086968512 arsCodeSet=windows-1252[0] arDbCodeSet=windows-1252[0] Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6670 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize pending lists Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6671 Startup TID:3086968512 Create cache read write lock Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6671 Startup TID:3086968512 Create full text status read write lock Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6672 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize fork proxy Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6672 Startup TID:3086968512 Check licensing Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6693 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize user cache Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6707 Startup TID:3086968512 Open log file Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6745 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize XML parser Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6782 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize thread list Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6784 Startup TID:3086968512 Check multiple servers Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6787 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize dead thread list Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6790 Startup TID:3086968512 Initialize timed calls Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6792 Startup TID:3086968512 CreateRPCQueue(min=1, max=1, rpc=390600) Jul 09 2007 18:29:06.6793 Startup TID:3086968512 Await cache ready...

Depending on the size of your server (number of forms, views, fields, etc), there may be a couple of sql statements that are followed by a pause. What is happening internally is anyone's guess; I would guess that they are processing X rows at a time to operate within certain memory constraints, and 'maybe' in a horribly inefficient way. Some things are for certain though; (1) a lot of data is transferred from the db to the arserver. My test server, which has 3293 rows in field_dispprop (pretty much a base arserver install) sends 411K of data over the wire. (2) the field_dispprop data is processed in chunks of 500 (at least on Linux).

Re: CMDB's BMC_Person class: usage?
Hey Bob, I beleive the BMC_Person class stores information about the people who manage and depend on the other CIs in your environment. The First question you need to ask yourself depending on your environment is Can People be Configuration Items in your environment? According to me the answer is an overwhelming yes. People can and should be CIs because they represent an organization's human assets. Therefore, the CMDB should include data about the relationship of an event to the business customers who rely on a service, as well as the relationship of an event to the personnel required to resolve it in the incident management process. This relationship information relies upon data about People CIs. Because a person's functions can change often, all of this information can get complicated. If someone gains additional technical certifications, that person can now assist on different types of events. Maintaining People CIs in your CMDB can help keep all the information straight. You might argue that most of these attributes and relationships are already maintained in ITSM 7 using the People form however I believe that CMDB is the right way to maintain these relationships which of course would be a painful process for every company to go through and because of which I guess BMC has given us an option of venting our thoughts of implementing the right CMDB with ITSM 7. Hope this helps. -- Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese Mobile : +1 732 618 8582 ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:Where the Answers Are
Re: Share SLA experience
Believe it or not, I sequentially put those 500 SLAs in less than a day, not by waiting one SLA successfully created first. And as you said, it was frustrating moment, especially when the SLA engine stopping intermittently after finish uploading Piuhh, I believe some guys are made some mistake upstairs.

Can't imagine how frustate it will be with Cakrabinaya's SLA (He said thousand SLA!). Did you creating 150 SLA at once, I mean sequently adding 150 SLA? Or, rather wait for one SLA to be built succesfully(thorugh the SLA Action) then move to the next SLA ? IPBS On 7/6/07, Hromyak, Nicholas (DHCS-ITSD) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We have over 150 SLAs.

As for best practices, I would say whatever is most applicable and the more generic and better way of getting your users/groups to use the same SLAs the better. Good luck. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Issotyo P.B Sulistyo Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2007 9:31 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Share SLA experience Hi Cakra, I had a nightmare when building/deploying around 100 SLA at once, since it is very slow. In one of my case, I had my server crashed with error Memory Allocation Error (Malloc) when building SLA. Same environment with your server. Did your server patched to version 20 ? ARSYS must be patched to Version 20 to avoid Malloc error. I wonder, is anybody ever deploy SLA more than 100 at once?

I my self had deployed more than 500 item SLAs at once recently, and more than 1000 item SLAs totally in 1 month. I use Remedy 6.3 with w2k3 as the OS in compaq blade server with 4 processor and 4gb ram, The impact to our server of deploying those SLAs is very significant. It eating almost all the memory and processor resources, and also give application error status on Event Viewer. It needs one week to process all 500 items to built successfully. Does anyone know how many SLAs that securely deployed in one time max..? Does anyone ever deploy as many as I do..? Or even more..? And what is the best practice of designing SLA..? Is it per CTI or per Priority and Urgency..?
