Re: Feasibility of migration of ARS6.3 to ARS7.1 keeping Application Incident Mgmt and Change Mgmt v6.0

2008-06-23 Thread Shyam Attavar

Manish,

I am not sure specifically if ITSM 6.0 version of the apps will have an 
impact if run under AR System 7.1.0. By and large this should work without 
any issues unless AR System 7.1.0 release notes state this and if so what 
pieces would be impacted. I am not fully clear, since I have not read the 
7.1.0 documentation yet.


We moved from AR 6.3.0 Patch 20 running ITSM 6.x (HD 6.x AM 6.x and CMDB 
1.1) to AR 7.0.1 Patch 2 last year running ITSM 6.x (but only difference was 
we moved from CMDB 1.1 to CMDB 2.0.1) after the AR upgrade. Our apps are 
running without any issues in production and we are extremely happy with the 
setup.


One thing I would recommend is to upgrade AR from 6.3 to AR 7.1.0 in place 
with the Upgrade option (which will just upgrade the AR components without 
impacting the application). What you have mentioned below will not work - 
quoted here again:- We are looking fwd for the feasibility, if we 1. 
Install ARS7.1 2. Apply our existing database dump of application (Incident 
Management 6.0 + Change Management 6.0 + SLA 2.0) 3. Install Mid Tier 7.1 4. 
Install Oracle 10g 5. Install CMDB2.0


Also, upgrading CMDB 1.1 to CMDB 2.0 is a multi-step manual process and I 
hope you have the white paper that describes how to do this methodically 
without impacting the data in your current CMDB.


HTH,

Hello List,

We are into overall architecture change of our existing Remedy 
infrastructure.
Currently we are on ARS6.3 + Incident Management 6.0 + Change Management 6.0 
+ SLA 2.0 + CMDB1.1 + Oracle 9i.


While testing Oracle 10g with our existing ARS6.3, we realized that ARS6.3 
in not compatible with Oracle 10g client.
So we foresee ARS6.3 as a bottle neck to our Architecture update w.r.t to 
Oracle and other components of Remedy as well for e.g. we can't be On 
CMBD2.0 unless we don't have ARS7.1.


We are looking fwd for the feasibility, if we 1. Install ARS7.1 2. Apply our 
existing database dump of application (Incident Management 6.0 + Change 
Management 6.0 + SLA 2.0) 3. Install Mid Tier 7.1 4. Install Oracle 10g 5. 
Install CMDB2.0


WILL MY SYSTEM WORK AS IT IS WORKING NOW. If not what are the issues behind 
and how we can overcome those.


Your input on this keeps very value for me.

Thanks
Best Regards
Manish.

Or the easier way would be to open VIS:ProcessAcceleratorItem and find
the record you want and set it to Offline.  The only thing is there
are alot of different states in the Status Process Flow Bar so you
have to make sure you have the right one.

Hi Ranjith,

 

You can use the Application Statistics Configuration form to set up
logging for the applications installed on your server. Once you have it
configured, statistics will be pushed to the application statistics form
as a snapshot. You can report off the data in that form to get
cumulative stats.

 I have also observed this behavior.   If I remember correctly certain

 there was a version that always prompted you to save every time you
 closed the form no matter how many times you had saved it before with no

Re: Archiving Stopped?

2008-06-23 Thread Brittain, Mark
Hi John  Kelly,

 

There are plenty of records that qualify to be archived. So that is not
the issue. Also there have not been any modifications made to the for.
Once the forms get out of sync, is there a way to get them back in sync?
I have tried disabling and enabling the archiving which Remedy accepts.
Which indicates the forms are the same. 

 

Only thing I can think of that I have done is modify the results list of
the archive form. But that was on June 20th. Archiving stopped on June
12th. Any ideas?


Thanks

Mark

HI Chintan,

 

Here is the qualification. I will look at the filter logs as you have
suggested.

 

( 'Status' = Closed-Cancelled) AND ( 'Modified-date' = ($DATE$ -
(((60 * 60) * 24) * 325)))

 

Thanks

Mark

is qualification criteria for the archiving?

Hi All  TGIF,

I noticed the other day that archiving has stopped on one of my forms.
The archiving (copy  delete from source)had been performing well
months. The archiving runs at 11:00PM.

I turned on threads logging and have not found anything there. I had
hoped to get something from the arerror.log but there has not been an
update since April 15th.

Anybody have any ideas or suggestions?

Re: Where is the background appearance information stored?

I tried extracting the proplong.

Could not see anything which can be guessed as a bit map.

Now I will experiment with a test form with and without background image
and let me see whether there is any difference.

I think it's stored in the proplong column in the fieldid=0 record on
the field_dispprop table



Select proplong from field_dispprop where schemaid = your schemaid and
vuiid = your vuiid and fieldid = 0



The same is true for your button images I think



Select proplong from field_dispprop where schemaid = your schemaid and
vuiid = your vuiid and fieldid = your button's field id





Problem is the image data definition looks like it's concatenated with
viewname and other definitions so it may be hard to extract.



Good luck.

Hi Listers



I believe that everything in Remedy is stored some where in the table.
So I am trying to locate where is the background information on the
Appearance tab of the View properties stored?



I tried searching in table vui but no luck

I tried searching field_dispprop with a guess that the total appearance
may be stored as a field. Interestingly I found fieldID = 0 but
properties did not reveal anything meaningful (rather interpretable)?



Does anybody know about this?

Re: Feasibility of migration of ARS6.3 to ARS7.1 keeping Application Incident Mgmt and Change Mgmt v6.0

2008-06-23 Thread Mohan Panchangmath
Shyam,

Can you let me know one thing?

We have similar environment like yours and recently
upgraded from CMDB 1.1 to 2.0.1 patch 5 following
BMC's white paper. 

But now we see that we cannot relate Computer CI to
another Computer CI or to a Printer CI from the
Related Items tab like we could do with CMDB 1.1.

The following relations are possible:
Monitor to Computer Sys/Printer
Computer System To Monitor
Printer To Monitor

In all the above possible combinations common to
Monitor, only Component - Hosted System is available
as relationship menu option.

I submitted a tkt to BMC for verifying but till date I
have got no response from them.
Do you see the same combinations? Can you let me know?

Thanks,
Mohan

 Also, upgrading CMDB 1.1 to CMDB 2.0 is a multi-step

 do this methodically 
 without impacting the data in your current CMDB.

Re: Archiving Stopped?

2008-06-23 Thread Reiser, John J
Mark,
I was going to ask if Archiving was disabled in the Admin tool but you
stated that one of the forms had stopped archiving.
And since it is a Unix server you probably don't need a reboot.
 
I'm not sure where the archiving runs, as an escalation thread or the
admin thread.
 
Try changing the qualification to a different date range, like
(60*60*24*315) just to see if it kick starts something.

Hi John  Kelly,

 

There are plenty of records that qualify to be archived. So that is not
the issue. Also there have not been any modifications made to the for.
Once the forms get out of sync, is there a way to get them back in sync?
I have tried disabling and enabling the archiving which Remedy accepts.
Which indicates the forms are the same. 

 

Only thing I can think of that I have done is modify the results list of
the archive form. But that was on June 20th. Archiving stopped on June
12th. Any ideas?


Thanks

Have you added any real data fields to your form recently?  We have
found that when the base form and the archiving form are not in sync,
archiving stops without any errors/warnings.  We are now adding Help
fields to some of our admin/config areas in our products to show when
the last archiving took place and how many records have been archived to
help spot these problems easier.

That would prevent the Modified Date from ever getting close to your

Maybe you could change it to Status-History.Closed-Cancelled.TIME in
place of the Modified Date.

Just a thought.

SLM 7.1 Question

2008-06-23 Thread William Rentfrow
I have some weirdness with 7.1
 
I want a Service Target to do the following:
 
1.) Only apply if the issue is assigned to group X
2.) Give 2 hours to group X to move the Incident along
3.) Once the Incident is no longer assigned to group X - or if it is
resolved - it is Met.
4.) Group X can receive the Incident multiple times in the lifetime of
the Incident.  This should result in a new 2-hour window each time for
group X to do their thing.
 
So, I created a Service Target + SLA where..
 
1.) Single Goal/Cost of 2 hours
2.) Terms and conditions say (in short) 'Assignee Group Id' = Group X
ID and 'Customer Company' = Our Company AND 'Company' = our
Company
3.) Start When = 'Assignee Group Id' = Group X ID AND 'Status' 
Resolved
4.) Stop When = 'Assignee Group Id' != Group X ID OR 'Status' =
Resolved
5.) Reset Goal for same request = Yes
6.) Allow Service Target to re-open = No
 
When I assign the Incident to the Group the ST attaches correctly and
time starts counting down.
 
When I re-assigning the Incident to another group the ST goes into a
status of Detached instead of Met.
 
When I re-assign to group X after that a new instance of the ST
attaches (correctly) to the Incident - but again, if once again
re-assign the incident it goes to a status of Detached.
 
In fact, any time I do not use the pre-defined templates for the ST's
Measurement Criteria the ST just goes to Detached instead of Met.
 
What gives?  Anyone run into this?  I've tried a number of different
permutations of the config and this is the closest I can get.

Re: SLM 7.1 Question

2008-06-23 Thread Scott Parrish
William,

The reason the Service Target's status is Detached is that once the ticket
gets reassigned the Service Target is no long appropriate because the Terms
and Conditions state that the SLM should only be attached when the Assigned
Group ID = Group X ID. To make this work the way you want it to work,
you would need to remove the Assigned Group ID as part of the Terms and
Conditions. Obviously, this would attach the Service Target on every ticket,
but the clock still will not start until Group X is assigned the ticket and
then it would stop when the ticket is reassigned. However, it would not go
to a detached status because the Terms and Conditions would still be
appropriate for the Service Target.

 My son just graduated from HS, and will leave for the Marines in
October.
 Sometime between now and then, he and I are going to drive
cross-country on
 a BBQ tour.  We'll start and end in Seattle, but we intend to hit all
of the
 areas of the country famous for BBQ:  Texas, Louisiana, the rest of
the
 South, North Carolina, Memphis, Chicago, and Kansas City.

 We're still planning the specifics, and here's where all y'all come
in:

 I would love to know THE places to go in your part of the country
(assuming
 it's one I mentioned above - this will be almost entirely SOUTH of
the
 Mason-Dixon line) for outstanding BBQ, whether they're famous or a
 hole-in-the-wall.  We'll stay away from big chains for the most part
(we
 have Famous Dave's up here), unless it is a local/regional one with a
good
 local reputation.

 Thanks in advance for sharing!

 Rick

Database CI Configuration Advice

I am looking for a little advice to see how you all are tracking
Database

all of our platforms: Development, QA, UAT and Production.  My question
is 
should I create one CI for each platform or should I create just one CI
and 
then relate it to all the platform servers: Development, QA, UAT and 
Production?

Just looking for some guidance.

We've captured databases/data servers for each platform.  They are, in
fact, distict entities.  Look at this from a Change Management
perspective.  You would execute a production change that was related to
a database on that particular platform (i.e. modify a table).
Presumably you would have tested out your ddl changes on a lower
environment (QA) database before hand.   That's two distinct
Infrastructure Changes on two separate databases.

SLM Error....maybe others....

2008-06-23 Thread Richard Copits
Earlier I was trying to install SLM. I was running the zip file on a
virtual

server. when I ran BMCSLM-WIN32.EXE  I got into the application but

then got a General RIK error. Cause unknown -1.

 

It turns out that the RIK is the Remedy Installation Kit and is a
directory

that is also in the zipped package. By doing an unzip of the original

distribution file into a sources directory and running it from there

caused it to run fine. I guess a good idea might be to never run a
zipped

file but instead unzip all of it into a local directory. Just sharing
what

seemed to be what worked for me.

Re: Question about Real field type in a form

2008-06-23 Thread Jones, Jonathan Clark
I found this out the hard way not so long ago myself.

Excerpt from BMC(r) Remedy(r) Action Request System(r) 7.0
Form and Application Objects
For real fields, the representation in the database keeps a maximum of
10
digits worth of data. After 10 digits, the number is rounded, and the
succeeding digits are ignored. For example, if 12345.090009 is entered,
the
value after a submit is 12345.090010. But, if 1234567.090099 is entered,
the
value after a submit is 1234567.09. The last three digits are
ignored
because the rounded answer comes after the 10th position.



Try a decimal field instead?

Actually this doesn't work perfectly either.
 
If I create a new Incident and leave it in a status of New but assign

** 

William,

The reason the Service Target's status is Detached is that once the
ticket gets reassigned the Service Target is no long appropriate because
the Terms and Conditions state that the SLM should only be attached when
the Assigned Group ID = Group X ID. To make this work the way you
want it to work, you would need to remove the Assigned Group ID as part
of the Terms and Conditions. Obviously, this would attach the Service
Target on every ticket, but the clock still will not start until Group X
is assigned the ticket and then it would stop when the ticket is
reassigned. However, it would not go to a detached status because the
Terms and Conditions would still be appropriate for the Service Target.

Subject: SLM 7.1 Question

 

I have some weirdness with 7.1

 

I want a Service Target to do the following:

 

1.) Only apply if the issue is assigned to group X

2.) Give 2 hours to group X to move the Incident along

3.) Once the Incident is no longer assigned to group X - or if it is
resolved - it is Met.

4.) Group X can receive the Incident multiple times in the lifetime of
the Incident.  This should result in a new 2-hour window each time for
group X to do their thing.

 

So, I created a Service Target + SLA where..

 

1.) Single Goal/Cost of 2 hours

2.) Terms and conditions say (in short) 'Assignee Group Id' = Group X
ID and 'Customer Company' = Our Company AND 'Company' = our
Company

3.) Start When = 'Assignee Group Id' = Group X ID AND 'Status' 
Resolved

4.) Stop When = 'Assignee Group Id' != Group X ID OR 'Status' =
Resolved

5.) Reset Goal for same request = Yes

6.) Allow Service Target to re-open = No

 

When I assign the Incident to the Group the ST attaches correctly and
time starts counting down.

 

When I re-assigning the Incident to another group the ST goes into a
status of Detached instead of Met.

 

When I re-assign to group X after that a new instance of the ST
attaches (correctly) to the Incident - but again, if once again
re-assign the incident it goes to a status of Detached.

 

In fact, any time I do not use the pre-defined templates for the ST's
Measurement Criteria the ST just goes to Detached instead of Met.

Hi Ravi,

There's nothing out of the box with the exception of fieldid 1 (EntryID
or RequestID depending on the version).  

You could, however, build a filter with a setfields action that fires
only on submit

Action: SetFields from SQL

select max(fieldname) + 1 from formviewname

Value $1$

Re: Ticket not visible to the assigned group.

2008-06-23 Thread Jason Miller
Anuj,

Does your environment have Authenticate Unregistered Users turned on?  We
have seen where people login using a login name in a case other than how
there login name is stored in the User form (upper, lower, mixed) .  Since
Remedy is case sensitive for the login name but most external authentication
directories are not, they are able to authenticate and login to Remedy
because their credential are valid for the external authentication source
but since their login name case does not match what is stored in Remedy they
do not pick up the appropriate group permissions.

Does anything else look different when they are logged in?  Not see fields
that you usually see is a sign that you logged in with the wrong case login
name.

Re: Integer field sequence number

2008-06-23 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
It appears that the form you are working with is a Join form.  On Join
forms field 1 is a combination of the field 1(s) from both of the joined
forms with a '|' separator character. 

If using field 1 from one of the 2 firms in the join works then you
could do a set fields using either the LEFT or RIGHT functions to just
get the part of the field you want (or use field 1 from one of the forms
itself).

 Ravi,

 Why not use field 1's value? ( You may have a good reason, but
 sometimes it helps to know what your trying to do so that the best
 solution can be approached in the discussion. Instead of just
 answering the question with a simple. Nothing out of the box that
 does that, other than field 1.)

Remedy Application Time

2008-06-23 Thread Masha Bench
Greetings Listers,

Does Remedy have its own application time separate from the host server time? 
If it does, where can I change it?
We use it only in one location and it seems like the time might be an hour off 
ever since the daylight savings.

Thanx.

SQL Server huge translogs and very poor performance

2008-06-23 Thread Brian Gillock
Hey Listers,

Does anyone have any tips for maintaining transaction logs
in SQL Server?  Ours seem to growing at an insane rate and nothing our DBAs
are doing is helping at all.  And I'm continually getting time outs when
trying to save workflow.  And that is without any users.  There is nothing
special setup in development and I can do a backup, truncating the logs and
that helps for a while.  In production, however, we have log mirroring setup
for DR purposes.  It's killing me.  The DB and AR box are both on their own
dual quad core servers with 4GB RAM, so I don't think it's a resource issue.
Any advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Brian

Re: SQL Server huge translogs and very poor performance

2008-06-23 Thread LJ Longwing
About the only tip I can give you is this.  Give yourself enough room for
your transaction logs.  They are growing for a reason...you could try
turning on sql logging to see what your server is busy doing because the
logs shouldn't be growing if your app isn't doing anything.  Your DBA should
be able to tell you who is connected to the db, and your sql logs should be
able to tell you who is making modifications to what values.

Re: Remedy Application Time

2008-06-23 Thread Roger Justice
There are two times used, client time and server time and you will need to 
review each field to determine which is used. If a filer or server sets the 
time it is the server time. If an Active link sets the time it is using the 
client time.

Re: Self-Employed Remedy Professionals

2008-06-23 Thread Rabi Tripathi
Jim,
I formed an LLC when I was thinking of starting a
business unrelated to Remedy.

For Remedy work, companies seemed to be ok with a 1099
contract with me, so I never bothered. I heard of some
tax advantages of corp-to-corp arrangement, but I
seemed to get plenty of deductions without that setup.

Once formed, I did use the LLC for Remedy contracts as
well. Good way to build a history for the company, in
case I want to have a real business of any kind in
future.

Another factor was the need to get my own health
insurance. In NY state, every insurer is required to
guarantee an insurance to all residents. Insurance
companies oblige, but the price is not regulated and
is very high in the open market for
individuals/families, as you can imagine. By having a
company with two employees (being married makes it
easy to recruit another employee), I easily got a
group plan at one third the cost (can't beat
ehealthinsurance.com). Technically, I could do this
without having a registered company, instead by using
my own name (DBA, doing business as my own name),
but having a LLC and writing a check with its name
made me and my employee's employment more believable
in the eyes of the insurance company.

About social security tax...a typical LLC is a
pass-through entity, meaning that it doesn't pay any
taxes at all on its earnings. Rather, all the earnings
come down directly on your personal tax return. So,
there's no tax advantage, especially when it comes to
FICA(social security, Medicare taxes). I don't think
there's much you can do to avoid the FICA taxes.
Unless perhaps you make a big load of money, more than
a typical contractor, and use a corporation instead of
a LLC to play with the figure. Got some golden talents
they will pay for in gold? :) Still, FICA is
effectively capped at around 100k, so FICA is perhaps
not the biggest drain on your earnings.

LLC did come handy when a recent Remedy contract
required corp-to-corp (and a ridiculous amount of
ridiculous commercial insurance, that's a different
story), but I am personally not worried about
liability much, as long as I am the only person in the
LLC. (Oops, forgot the other employee, but her job
performance has been utterly lacking all along...so
customers are not likely to hold me liable of
anything). If I had other people I funneled through
the LLC, who would come in contact with the customers,
I would worry about them and want to have some
protection  for my peace of mind. So liability was
not a factor in getting a LLC.

In general, if you plan on contracting for a while,
you want to get a LLC, or a corp.

Did I mention that I am impersonating, but am not an
accountant or an attorney? And that this info is US
centric? I just did.

 Been doing it for 2 1/2 years. It's a mixed bag.
 Overall, I'm happy. For the longest time, I had no
 company, just did 1099.
 Just last year got a LLC.
 
 If you don't understand the last two sentences,
 you've got a lot to learn to
 operate as an independent. It took me quite some
 time to learn the terms,
 the math, the tricks, the caveats and so forth. The
 paperwork and the
 regulations and the taxes etc. And negotiations,
 contracts. Most
 importantly, avoiding the bad ones who won't pay.
 Still learning.
 
 It's a different life/different job. If you crave
 stability, certainty,
 you probably won't like it because it's really like
 an adventure with its
 ups and downs and you are on your own in many ways.
 Call it
 freedom/opportunity or call it chaos/risk. It is
 more demanding than, in my
 opinion, a permanent job especially a non-consulting
 one. Just my personal
 opinion, so please don't shoot me. Say, I don't want
 to be doing this till
 retirement.

SLM question

2008-06-23 Thread Saravanan Palaniappan
All,

I am trying to understand the SLM module in ITSM. Can any one of us
explain me about the Mesaurement criteria in SLM module.

I am little confused with one of the parameter defined in the
Mesaurement criteria called Exclude.

 

What does Exclude means ? What exactly happens behind the scene.

 

 

Thanks  Regards
