 Now, next task is to build the production system, so my question is,
 will taking the ghost image of test system and putting it on
 production system will work ? or do i have to start fresh
 installations of ARS and ITSM again on production system ?

 What is ideal approach ? What does BMC recommend ? Please advice.

Re: Test System to Production System, Would Ghost Image work ? what is BMC recommendation?

2009-06-27 Thread Ken Pritchard
I just did something similar with HP-UX (Remedy V6.3).  In my case, I hooked
a new server into a servergroup (db was the same).

Needed to change two items in the ar.conf file (IP addr and SERVERNAME
entries), adjust the armonitor.conf file to reflect new servername and
remove all licenses that were brought over from the prior server.  Needed to
have the /remedy and /etc/arsystem dir structures restored.  Had to make
sure the database name was in the tnsnames.ora file on the new server.

We also had the source server hooked in a cluster (so the arsystem file in
/remedy/svrname/bin also needed a modification since there was a
servername embedded in that file.  

Once I did the above, the server came up in evaluation mode and I was able
to apply the new licenses.

One of the important things to look at is that the workflow in your ARS
system needs to be server independent.  If there are references to specific
servers in your workflow, you'll need to clean the workflow to make it
server independent.

Oh, yes.  Stacked buttons!  And server-side macros before Push Fields actions 
were possible.  Being able to dispense with all our horrid run-process macros 
was a major step forward.  Before pushes, when you sent data from one form to 
another via a filter Run Process action, it happened in phase 3.  You had no 
assurance that it would happen, and you had no control over the order in which 
they would occur.  It's hard to imagine we built enterprise-class

  Never quite did it for me (even if it was more efficient than 
  escalations at the time).
 
   You mean you didn't really need all that snap to grid, boxes/text
 trim, grouping, some hope that the Motif/Windows/Mac/ASCII views looked
the
 same? Boy, could we have saved some time...
 
  There is a good trivia question:
  Who brought the phrase there is a work around
  into every day usage for us Remedy Folks?
 
  Not that it wasn't a phrase well worth paying attention to :-)
 
   Now you're just fishing for a response... :-)

 Hello All,

 I completed fresh install of ARS 7.5.00 Patch 001/ITSM 7.5.01 Patch
 001 on a test system.
 Now, next task is to build the production system, so my question is, 
 will taking the ghost image of test system and putting it on 
 production system will work ? or do i have to start fresh 
 installations of ARS and ITSM again on production system ?

 What is ideal approach ? What does BMC recommend ? Please advice.

You can copy the file system on Unix/Linux and update the
configuration files; it's not so simple on Windows.  You have to deal
with the registry...  Not something I am really keen on learning.  I
would imagine that a ghost image should suffice as long as you can
deal with all the other registry updates (domain membership, server
information, hostname, etc.).

2009-06-27 Thread Ravi Kiran
Thanks Axton.

I was trying to save some time by doing ghost imaging but i think it is not
worth it , as i may get other issues, which i don't want to want time on
resolving them.

Thanks again for your reply.
