Rakshit,

Start at the beginning. Start with diagnostics to find the problem.

Login as an Admin user to the User tool.
Tools--Options--Logging
Turn on all the log options(Active Links, Macro, API, Database, and
Filters)
Set the Log File Path to the path and filename that you want to
write the log to.
Click ok.
Log out/exit the User tool.

Login as the same user above.

After the Home page opens, Tools--Options--Logging and turn off all the
logs.

Pick through the file and see what is taking so long and if you see any
errors.
Also check the server's arerror.log file too.

If the above approach yields nothing, then try turning on the server
logs (API/DB/Filter) to try to isolate the right layer where the time
is being consumed.

Re: citrix and remedy

Hi Chris,

In my previous workplace, i have seen Remedy user tool being made available
through Citrix. The main reason for this seems to be that it negates the
need for Remedy user tool to be installed at each desk.

Re: citrix and remedy

2007-07-09 Thread Satya Gandhi

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)

Re: Share SLA experience

2007-07-09 Thread Issotyo P.B Sulistyo

Yes indeed, it's frustating creating hundred SLA with tight deadline.
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 ?

If creating, I have found you need to wait for them to build before
moving on to the next SLA.  Rather frustrating when you need to get them
done quickly.

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.

I had a nightmare when building/deploying around 100 SLA at once,

error Memory Allocation Error (Malloc) when building SLA. Same

Did your server patched to version 20 ?  ARSYS must be patched to

I wonder, is anybody ever deploy SLA more than 100 at once?

 I use Remedy 6.3 with w2k3 as the OS in compaq blade server with 4

 The impact to our server of deploying those SLAs is very significant.
 It eating almost all the memory and processor resources, and also give

 all 500 items to built successfully.

 Does anyone know how many SLAs that securely deployed in one time

 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

Re: Difference between Missed and Missed Goal: Remedy SLA 6

2007-07-09 Thread brian . bishop
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 SLA’s set up in groups and SLA’s 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 sla’s 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.

 

 

 

 

Brian Bishop

Subject: Difference between Missed and Missed Goal: Remedy SLA 6

 

** 
Hello friends

Long time since last posting. 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. 

Please would you explain SLA status flow

Thanks

Re: Allow external code execution from Outlook

2007-07-09 Thread Heider, Stephen
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?

Stephen

Hi All,

In our remedy implementation, we were sending a resolution email to
the requester when their ticket was resolved. This email is an HTML form
with a submit button that executes a JSP code on our server and updates
the help desk status. The requester basically accept or reject the
solution from the email without getting back to the Help Desk ticket.

Now there is a new outlook patch (SR2 for Outlook 2003) where they can
not execute the code i.e. nothing happens when they click the submit.
I read up about this Outlook patch and it stops external code execution.


But could not find a way to allow code execution from trusted sites (?)

I know this is not a remedy question but am hoping someone on this list
may have a clue.

Re: Job Opportunity for Remedy Developer - Middle East

2007-07-09 Thread arslist
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.

I was going to ask for that myself(not that I am looking for work at this
moment): some spots I might be comfortable, others I might be used for
target practice.

ARERR 623 AREA LDAP problem

2007-07-09 Thread Brad Terhune

Good morning list!
Pardon my ignorance but I cannot figure this one out.  All of the
users that I have authenticating off our Active Directory cannot log
in this morning (all of a sudden, was working Friday).

Exchange and domain computer logins work fine on AD so it does not
seem to be directly tied to AD.

I have restarted the box and commented out the external authentication
line in the ar.cfg file and restarted the services.  Didn't work.  I
cannot find an error log that i can use but I don't know where to
start to look.

I am running ARS 6.3, Helpdesk 5.6 on a Windows Server 2003 box.
Oracle back end.  The Windows firewall is off.

Thanks,
Brad

   Applied 7.0.2 patch 4 on our 7.0.01 patch 1 system.
   After this I looked in Server Information and saw that
   Server version still says 7.0.01 patch 1

   Why?

   I believe I've missed something.
   Maybe upgrade of arserver.exe.
   But this does not come with 7.0.2 patch 4

Re: aruser crash

2007-07-09 Thread Michiel Beijen

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

Re: ARERR 623 AREA LDAP problem

2007-07-09 Thread Heider, Stephen
This might not be the same issue but just in case...  Was Windows Server
2003 SP2 installed recently?

Over the weekend SP2 of Windows Server 2003 was installed here.
Afterwards this caused errors such as The operation could not be
performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a
distributed transaction and The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no
corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION.

SP2 changed the security settings of DTC which broke the SQL Linked
Servers.  Reconfiguring DTC fixed the issue.

Escalation

2007-07-09 Thread Doornbos, Mark
Hi List,
 
I'm trying to figure out how to calculate and populate an Escalate Time field 
based on Priority. I've created the Escalate Time field and I would like to 
perform a Set Field action to place a future time in the Escalate Time field 
when a user submits an incident and the status is less than In Progress and 
the Priority is Critical. 
 
I'll then create an Escalation that will trigger on the Escalate Time field if 
the time and date is greater than the Escalate Time. 
 
I'm currently using Remedy Service Desk 7 with IM patch 4. DB is Oracle 10.2.

CMDB's BMC_Person class: usage?

2007-07-09 Thread ARS Bob

I've got years and years of ARS experience, but I'm a bit of a CMDB novice.

Can anybody tell me the intended (or non-intended but useful) usage of the
BMC_Person class in CMDB?  In an ITSM 7.0 environment where we already are
populating CTM:People, I'm not sure what benefits we get from populating the
Person class.

Re: Help with Run-If Qualification

2007-07-09 Thread Reiser, John J
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.

If I've missed any glaring situations, some, please correct this.

Re: Help with Run-If Qualification

2007-07-09 Thread Moore, Chris
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: Help with Run-If Qualification

Not entirely true.  If you only look at TR.field != DB.field then any time
the value doesn't change and the DB value isn't null that evaluates to true.
The original qualification of
( 'TR.field' !=  $NULL$ ) AND ( 'TR.field' != 'DB.field'
Is one of the proper ways to check if a field is changing.  As long as you
are not looking for it changing to null

Re: Escalation

2007-07-09 Thread Kaiser Norm E CIV USAF 96 CS/SCCE
Well it sounds from your description like you already know how to do it.

 

Create the hidden Escalate Time field and make that a Date/Time field.

 

Create a filter that populates that field on Submit with $TIMESTAMP$ +
whatever your escalation time is in seconds.  I'm assuming here that
that's a static time for all support groups in the system.

 

The catch is that the escalation has to run fairly frequently...maybe
every 15 minutes or so.

 

The escalation's Run If should be something along the lines of, if
$TIMESTAMP$  Escalate Time AND Priority = Critical AND Status 
Whatever the number for Critical is.

Re: Escalation

Sorry for my ignorance but when it comes to calculations, I'm lost. You stated: 
 
Create a filter that populates that field on Submit with $TIMESTAMP$ + 
whatever your escalation time is in seconds
 
Let's say the Incident was submitted at 9:00 a.m. and I wanted the Escalate 
Time field to be populated for 11:00 a.m. on the same day based on the Status 
being Critical (escalate in 2 hours), the Set Fields action would be 
$TIMESTAMP$ + ??? or $Reported Date$ + ???. I'm trying to figure out what the 
question marks would be...7200??

Well it sounds from your description like you already know how to do it.

 

Create the hidden Escalate Time field and make that a Date/Time field.

 

Create a filter that populates that field on Submit with $TIMESTAMP$ + whatever 
your escalation time is in seconds.  I'm assuming here that that's a static 
time for all support groups in the system.

 

The catch is that the escalation has to run fairly frequently...maybe every 15 
minutes or so.

 

The escalation's Run If should be something along the lines of, if $TIMESTAMP$ 
 Escalate Time AND Priority = Critical AND Status  Whatever the number for 
Critical is.

Hi List,

 

I'm trying to figure out how to calculate and populate an Escalate Time field 
based on Priority. I've created the Escalate Time field and I would like to 
perform a Set Field action to place a future time in the Escalate Time field 
when a user submits an incident and the status is less than In Progress and 
the Priority is Critical. 

 

I'll then create an Escalation that will trigger on the Escalate Time field if 
the time and date is greater than the Escalate Time.

2007-07-09 Thread Kaiser Norm E CIV USAF 96 CS/SCCE
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.  If the suspense is
broken, the escalation tattles.

Re: Share SLA experience

2007-07-09 Thread Hromyak, Nicholas (DHCS-ITSD)
I was doing about three at a time.  I had to go back to each one in the
Administration tab and confirm they were being built correctly.  Later
we had to make them over again for Change tickets!  

W2K3
SQL2k
Separate servers 
Dual 3.1Ghz 2GB of ram on each server.

Processor and network wasn't a factor, CPU wasn't being used much.  It
just took a while.  I think Remedy has a built-in waiting period, a sort
of pause, when creating the SLA/Filters/AL that it creates.  I imagine
this is so it won't bring down the system.

Yes indeed, it's frustating creating hundred SLA with tight deadline.
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 ?

 If creating, I have found you need to wait for them to build before
 moving on to the next SLA.  Rather frustrating when you need to get
them
 done quickly.

 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.

 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

 I wonder, is anybody ever deploy SLA more than 100 at once?

ARS 7.5?

2007-07-09 Thread Mike White


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.  Am I missing something?

ARS7 install with oracle 10G RAC ... the saga continues ...

2007-07-09 Thread Andrew Hicox
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.
All rights reserved.

Action Request System(R)  Plug-In Server   Version 7.0.01 patch 002  
200704021644
Copyright (c) 2001 - 2006 BMC Software, Inc.
All rights reserved.
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.

There don't appear to be any issues with network latency between the remedy 
server and the RAC.

Anyone ever seen this before?
Any suggestions?

thanks,

Andrew

Please search the list archives at www.arslist.org or google groups.

This has been discussed at length, and the slow startup with a remote 
Oracle DB is not uncommon.  Our systems take about 8 minutes.

Even tickets submitted to support confirm this same delay.  They sometimes 
suggest to ensure all NIC's are set to full duplex, but that's about it.

Sorry...

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. Am I missing something?

Logging changes

2007-07-09 Thread McManus Michael A SSgt HQ 754 ELSG/DOMH
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.

Thanks much,

As noted been there done that when or app server and the database server were 
some distance apart by network.  It would take over 5 minutes to see the arfork 
line scroll by.  Once the two servers were moved to the same room, start up 
time dropped to around 30 seconds.

Please search the list archives at www.arslist.org or google groups.

This has been discussed at length, and the slow startup with a remote 
Oracle DB is not uncommon.  Our systems take about 8 minutes.

Even tickets submitted to support confirm this same delay.  They sometimes 
suggest to ensure all NIC's are set to full duplex, but that's about it.

Sorry...

Re: Logging changes

2007-07-09 Thread Shellman, David
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

2007-07-09 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
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

Re: ARS7 install with oracle 10G RAC ... the saga continues ...

2007-07-09 Thread Axton

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).

special startup log file is created.  The log file will look something

If you then review the sql that is sent to the db while the server is
unavailable, you will see this statement, followed by silence:

SELECT schemaId,fieldId,vuiId,propShort,propLong FROM field_dispprop
ORDER BY 1 ASC, 2 ASC, 3 ASC

What is happening here is that arserverd fetches the field display
property info, then processes it 500 records at a time.  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?

2007-07-09 Thread Roney Samuel Varghese

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.

Re: Share SLA experience

2007-07-09 Thread cakrabinaya

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.

Yes indeed, it's frustating creating hundred SLA with tight deadline.
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 ?

 If creating, I have found you need to wait for them to build before
 moving on to the next SLA.  Rather frustrating when you need to get them
 done quickly.

 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.

 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?

  Hi All,
 
  I'm newbie on Remedy Helpdesk and I need some information about SLA.
  Could you guys share your experience regarding to SLA deployment.
  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..?
 
 
  TIA
