WebService - XML formatted in a char field question ?

2009-08-10 Thread Sean Harrodine
Hi all,

I've been having issues creating a web service out to a third party solution 
(IBM Maximo) so i thought i would try the following..

1 - create a basic form with just 2 fields, i called OUTBOUNDXML, 1 called 
REPLY
2 - load their WSDL into a filter to run on SUBMIT
3 - in the filter, click the Input Mappings button where i now see an XML 
Data Type of arg0, so i map this field to the OUTBOUNDXMLfield on my form
4 - similarily, in the Output Mappings, i see an XML Data Type of return 
so i map this to field REPLY on my form
5 - and finally, i create an entry in the Form and put some XML formatted data 
in the OUTBOUNDXML and submit, hoping that i get a successful reply back.

So, i submit the record and the system waits for a second or 2 before yes i get 
a reply back, but its an error and our 3rd party company are saying that they 
cant see any data.

So, question

Should this work, namely, formatting the data in a character field in an XML 
format and sending through to ???
I wanted to do this purely as a back to basics style test to just prove that 
their side is working ok.

All help gretefully received.

Sean

Our DOD client would like for us to implement SSO using a product called

If anyone has ever did any kind of SSO integration that would be helpful as

Logging onto MidTier

2009-08-10 Thread Kemes, Lisa
I have a MidTier form that is open to the public and anyone that gets into it 
is automatically logged on as a guest user...

If they need to change anything, then they will need to log on to the MidTier 
with their user id and password (if they have one) to make the changes.

I have a button that does a run process to this URL:

http://servername/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?server=serverform=On+Call

Under normal circumstances, this would make the user go to the log in screen, 
log in and then go to the form, but since they are already logged in as 
guest, it takes them right back to the same form with guest access again

Is there any URL or anything that will force the user to login?

Re: WebService - XML formatted in a char field question ?

2009-08-10 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
Most of the time when I see this type of WSDL (arg0 and arg1) I have to enclose 
my XML in a CDATA structure.

i.e.   
arg0![CDATA[?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?   
MY_XML   
ATTR1VALUE/ATTR1   
. . .   
/MY_XML]]   
/arg0

With the plugin logging turned on and set to 100 ( Plugin-Log-Level:100 ) in 
the ar.conf (ar.cfg in windows) you can see the XML in the log.  See the 
Configuring manual the AR System configuration files section.

Yes. Call the Logout servlet with a goto parameter
  
http://servername/arsys/servlet/LogoutServlet?goto=/arsys/forms/server/On+Call

That will force the guest user to be logged out and prompt for the new login.

Hi Fred,

Thanks for your reply.

I tried first of all with no CDATA and in the logfiles, i can see the arg0 
and /arg0 with my XML following and it looks fine to me but still errors.
I then tried with the ![CDATA[ at the top and then the ]] at the end and 
again, still errors.

Finally, i tried with ![CDATA[ at the top and put it on a line of its own and 
yes, you guessed it, still fails !

Re: Encouraging Float License Users to Log Off When Inactive

2009-08-10 Thread Opela, Gary L CTR USAF AFMC 72 CS/SCBAH

How about this:
Your users don't actually take a float license unless/until they modify a 
ticket created by someone else? Why is it that they grab a float license when 
doing things that don't require a float license? 

If they are not performing tasks that require a float license, then they should 
be using a float-read, or a read license, freeing up a floating license.

I'm not sure if they've fixed this or not in the 7.x tools, but with 6.3, a 
user with a floating license consumes a floating license as soon as he/she logs 
in, and remedy won't necessarily take his license away if someone else needs it.

** I think that is what we're trying to implement by separating the groups by 
license instead of group name.  If they have a floating license, the license

the happy dance cause you have auto-refresh.  Hopefully, this will allow us to 
more accurately trend license usage as more and more people are hired by our

Todd,
 
There is one item that is often overlooked or forgotten about.  
Use of Auto-Refresh caused us issues with floating licenses for many years.  
They would turn on Auto-Refresh and leave the client open for days on end.  
Since the Floating Write license timer is tied to searches this caused the 
floating license to be locked to an individual.  Folks even had it buried 
within macros.  Best thing you can do is open forms and disable Auto-Refresh on 
the views.  We then went on an active campaign to identify folks that were 
showing with a recent Last Access that didn't make sense like the folks that 
worked days that were consistently showing up in the middle of the night.
 
Once we deactivated Auto-Refresh and cleared out the macros, we 
didn't have to purchase floating licenses for three years.

Re: WebService - XML formatted in a char field question ?

2009-08-10 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
Sounds like you need the 3rd party to send you some example XML payloads to 
compare against.  This way you will know exactly what they are looking for.  
One thing to watch out for is you can't have a CDATA inside another CDATA (that 
is against the XML specifications).

Make sure you are looking at the right log file and that you have the

The location of the mid-tier log can be found in the configuration utility.

 reporting / cache / session management / web services / performance /
 servlet / internal

 but nothing shows in the logfile, relating to the transaction that i
 send from a test Remedy form, and then grab the error thats coming back from
 a 3rd parties web service.

 I have set the Log Level to Fine and Log Format set to Detailed Text
 but still nothing shows in the log file at all.

 Do i need to stop/start the mid-tier ???.

1. You need to first test with a SoapUI if the WSDL which is being provided 
waorks as desired.
2. On your remedy Server please check if the Webservice Plugin is working 
correctly. you can do this by typing arplugin -m  from a command prompt on

Subject: WebService - XML formatted in a char field question ?

** 
Hi all,

I've been having issues creating a web service out to a third party solution 
(IBM Maximo) so i thought i would try the following..

1 - create a basic form with just 2 fields, i called OUTBOUNDXML, 1 called 
REPLY
2 - load their WSDL into a filter to run on SUBMIT
3 - in the filter, click the Input Mappings button where i now see an XML 
Data Type of arg0, so i map this field to the OUTBOUNDXML field on my form
4 - similarily, in the Output Mappings, i see an XML Data Type of return 
so i map this to field REPLY on my form
5 - and finally, i create an entry in the Form and put some XML formatted data 
in the OUTBOUNDXML and submit, hoping that i get a successful reply back.

So, i submit the record and the system waits for a second or 2 before yes i get 
a reply back, but its an error and our 3rd party company are saying that they 
cant see any data.

So, question

Should this work, namely, formatting the data in a character field in an XML 
format and sending through to ???
I wanted to do this purely as a back to basics style test to just prove that 
their side is working ok.

All help gretefully received.

Hi Mathew,

Thanks for the email.
I am assured that the WSDL works correctly by my 3rd party.

We are running Linux so cant run the -m option but we have 13 plugin processes 
running.

This is the error that i get back from them.

UnknownUnknown09nullUnknown 
   

I think that the translation of  to lt; is not accepted on their side and 
the same with  as the message above implies null values but there is 
definately data being passed through

strange...very strange...

their system is IBM Maximo if that helps

rgds,
Sean

Hi Sean,
 
1. You need to first test with a SoapUI if the WSDL which is being provided 
waorks as desired.
2. On your remedy Server please check if the Webservice Plugin is working 
correctly. you can do this by typing arplugin -m  from a command prompt on 
the server.

user requests to receive notifications only from 12am-6am (UNCLASSIFIED)

2009-08-10 Thread Nguyen, AnhThien Mr CTR NG NGB ARNG
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: FOUO

Hi all,

I'm trying to run an escalation within a specific time between 1200am - 600am
everyday to notify a user. While I thought this will would be quick and easy,
it is becoming a bit more than I wanted. What I have so far is 60 escalations
created with having each minute specified on the hour for each escalation.
Basically, for each escalation, all the Weekdays are checked and Hour of Day
selected from 12am-6am and Time selected for 00, 01, 02, or 03, etc. I really
do not want 60 escalations running for this request. 

Is there a way to run 1 escalation or even a filter within a specific
timeframe (between 12am-6am everyday)? It's crucial for the user to receive
the notification when his ticket is created right away, since SLA requires
it. Otherwise, I could just run one escalation checking for that user's
ticket(s) once every hour.

Thanks and I hope I made sense.

Locale of data shown in Table field

2009-08-10 Thread Lyle Taylor
Hi All,

ARS 7.1 p6

What determines which locale is used to display information in a table field?  
We have a situation where a form has a table in it, and some of the information 
in the table is displayed in Spanish, and some in English.  The form is really 
just a custom view added to the HDP:Help Desk form, and we have the Spanish and 
English locales installed for Incident Management.  On this view, we have 
duplicated the Relationships tab with the associations table.  The locale for 
this view is set to NULL, which, as I understand it, is how all the English 
views should be, and the other English views on this form are set that way.

So, when you view a record, some of the values are in English, and others in 
Spanish.  For example, the Relationship Type and Status are in English, but the 
Record Type is in Spanish.  This also happens with other fields on other OOB 
forms.  For example, if I want to relate an Incident to another one, when I 
select the relationship type in the Incident Relationship Search dialog, even 
though the rest of the dialog is in English (I'm seeing the English view of the 
form), the relationship types displayed in the Relationship Type drop down list 
are in Spanish.

My initial thought is that this might have something to do with either the 
database sort order or sort orders defined on a form somewhere, but I'm not 
sure where to look.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Lyle Taylor

Re: user requests to receive notifications only from 12am-6am (UNCLASSIFIED)

2009-08-10 Thread Brittain, Mark
HI Thien

I am thinking you could do something with the Business Time and Holiday forms.

Set up your Business Time M-F, 12Am - 6AM.

Use a filter to get the Business Time populated into your form.

Then have another filter that compares the Create Date to the Business Time. 
You might have to play with it because they may not be equal but would be 
within seconds if the ticket is opened in the window. If the criteria matches 
then the filter would check a box (Send Notification)

Follow this with a Notify filter on Submit if the check box is checked, send 
the email.

This should give you an idea on how to get it to work without all of the 
escalations.

A Filter may be the more appropriate mechanism to run a notification on 
'Submit' do what you want to. An Escalation can fire only on an existing 
ticket, and not a ticket that is just being created.

Have you tried using a Filter and not been able to arrive at your solution? If 
so what was your problem?

Re: Locale of data shown in Table field

2009-08-10 Thread Lyle Taylor
Thanks, David.  Use Locale us currently set to False for this table.  However, 
if I'm understanding the documentation correctly, I'm not sure that field 
property is related to the issue I'm seeing.  It looks like it effectively adds 
another filter to the table's qualification such that only records in the 
user's locale are shown, not that it will affect what locale is used to display 
information.  For example, if I have requests in Spanish and English (and the 
Locale field on the record is set appropriately for each request), checking Use 
Locale would effectively cause only the English tickets to be displayed if my 
locale is set to English.  Am I understanding that correctly?

In this case, however, all requests are being displayed, it's just not using 
the correct locale for the selection value labels.

Thanks,
Lyle

Re: user requests to receive notifications only from 12am-6am (UNCLASSIFIED)

2009-08-10 Thread Givens, Gregory CONT
Thien,

We had something similar where a manager wanted a QA report every 15 minutes 
between the hours of 8AM and 4PM.
What I did was to create a QA form with a Status field with Active, Sleep, and 
In-Active as options
Then I have 3 Escalations
1 to change the Status on the QA form to Active (M-F @ 8AM)
1 to change the Status on the QA form to Sleep (M-F @ 4PM)
1 to do a push fields to the form being reported. The Run If on this Escalation 
looks to see if the entry on the QA Form 'Status' = Active
A Filter on the form being reported on takes care of the rest.

Hope this give you some ideas on how it can work for your situation.

Yes, it would be great to do it in just 1 filter and your Run If statement
seems like a great solution. I originally had a filter with various Run Ifs,
such as, ('Arrival Time' = ($TIMESTAMP$ - 21600)) AND ('Arrival Time' =

It sounds like you want a notification to be sent when a ticket is created
for a user and the time it is submitted is between Midnight and 6 AM.

You should not need any Escalations as you should be able to do this with a
Submit Filter. You check in the Run-If of the filter to see if it is for that
user and if the hour is between 0 and 6

To check the hour you can use the following to see if it is = 6 AM: 
  ((( $TIMESTAMP$ - 1/1/1970) % 86400) = (6 * 3600))

I'm thinking a filter running against the AR System Email Messages form that 
will run on Submit and set the Send Message to no if it is the user and the 
time. Then an Escalation to reverse. See below:

Filter:
  Run If:
'To' = anhthien.ngu...@us.army.mil AND ($TIME$  6:00 AM OR $TIME$  
11:57 PM)
  If Actions:
Set Fields: Set 'Send Message' = No

Escalation:

  If Actions:

Hi Fred,

Yes, it would be great to do it in just 1 filter and your Run If statement
seems like a great solution. I originally had a filter with various Run Ifs,
such as, ('Arrival Time' = ($TIMESTAMP$ - 21600)) AND ('Arrival Time' =
($TIMESTAMP$ - 0)), but none of them work. Let me try your suggestion and
will let you know.

Thanks!

It sounds like you want a notification to be sent when a ticket is created
for a user and the time it is submitted is between Midnight and 6 AM.

You should not need any Escalations as you should be able to do this with a
Submit Filter. You check in the Run-If of the filter to see if it is for that
user and if the hour is between 0 and 6

To check the hour you can use the following to see if it is = 6 AM: 
  ((( $TIMESTAMP$ - 1/1/1970) % 86400) = (6 * 3600))

Hi all,

I'm trying to run an escalation within a specific time between 1200am - 600am
everyday to notify a user. While I thought this will would be quick and easy,
it is becoming a bit more than I wanted. What I have so far is 60 escalations
created with having each minute specified on the hour for each escalation.
Basically, for each escalation, all the Weekdays are checked and Hour of Day
selected from 12am-6am and Time selected for 00, 01, 02, or 03, etc. I really
do not want 60 escalations running for this request. 

Is there a way to run 1 escalation or even a filter within a specific
timeframe (between 12am-6am everyday)? It's crucial for the user to receive
the notification when his ticket is created right away, since SLA requires
it. Otherwise, I could just run one escalation checking for that user's
ticket(s) once every hour.

Thanks and I hope I made sense.

Re: Locale of data shown in Table field

2009-08-10 Thread Lyle Taylor
Well, I think I may have found the problem for at least a couple of the fields. 
 For some reason, the selection fields on the English views have the Selection 
Values in English, but the Alias in Spanish.  Not sure how that happened.  I'll 
get those fixed and see where that leaves us...

Thanks, David.  Use Locale us currently set to False for this table.  However, 
if I'm understanding the documentation correctly, I'm not sure that field 
property is related to the issue I'm seeing.  It looks like it effectively adds 
another filter to the table's qualification such that only records in the 
user's locale are shown, not that it will affect what locale is used to display 
information.  For example, if I have requests in Spanish and English (and the 
Locale field on the record is set appropriately for each request), checking Use 
Locale would effectively cause only the English tickets to be displayed if my 
locale is set to English.  Am I understanding that correctly?

In this case, however, all requests are being displayed, it's just not using 
the correct locale for the selection value labels.

Thanks,
Lyle

Table fields in AR System 7.1.00 can be refreshed with specific locale

Subject: Locale of data shown in Table field

**
Hi All,

ARS 7.1 p6

What determines which locale is used to display information in a table field?  
We have a situation where a form has a table in it, and some of the information 
in the table is displayed in Spanish, and some in English.  The form is really 
just a custom view added to the HDP:Help Desk form, and we have the Spanish and 
English locales installed for Incident Management.  On this view, we have 
duplicated the Relationships tab with the associations table.  The locale for 
this view is set to NULL, which, as I understand it, is how all the English 
views should be, and the other English views on this form are set that way.

So, when you view a record, some of the values are in English, and others in 
Spanish.  For example, the Relationship Type and Status are in English, but the 
Record Type is in Spanish.  This also happens with other fields on other OOB 
forms.  For example, if I want to relate an Incident to another one, when I 
select the relationship type in the Incident Relationship Search dialog, even 
though the rest of the dialog is in English (I'm seeing the English view of the 
form), the relationship types displayed in the Relationship Type drop down list 
are in Spanish.

My initial thought is that this might have something to do with either the 
database sort order or sort orders defined on a form somewhere, but I'm not 
sure where to look.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Lyle Taylor

Off the cuffI would create a field and set the the current time in that field, 
some fancy work with strings and find out the time portion within the field if 
the time sets between 12am and 6pm then run a filter to notify this person.I 
have not tried this but I think it should work and let you get out of the 
situation of writing 60 escalations. If not something along these lines perhaps?

Caveats: FOUO

Hi all,

I'm trying to run an escalation within a specific time between 1200am - 600am
everyday to notify a user. While I thought this will would be quick and easy,
it is becoming a bit more than I wanted. What I have so far is 60 escalations
created with having each minute specified on the hour for each escalation.
Basically, for each escalation, all the Weekdays are checked and Hour of Day
selected from 12am-6am and Time selected for 00, 01, 02, or 03, etc. I really
do not want 60 escalations running for this request. 

Is there a way to run 1 escalation or even a filter within a specific
timeframe (between 12am-6am everyday)? It's crucial for the user to receive
the notification when his ticket is created right away, since SLA requires
it. Otherwise, I could just run one escalation checking for that user's
ticket(s) once every hour.

Thanks and I hope I made sense.

ITSM 7.5/SRM 2.2 Issues

2009-08-10 Thread Scott Parrish
Listers,
We are currently having major issues with SRM 2.2 Patch 003 running on ARS 
7.5.0/ITSM 7.5.01. BMC's answer to the problem is to roll back and reinstall 
SRM. I am curious, is there anyone out there running SRM 2.2 with ITSM 7.5.01? 
And, if so, was yours a fresh install of ARS 7.5/ITSM 7.5 or an upgrade? And, 
did you run into any issues or problems?

Re: Locale of data shown in Table field

2009-08-10 Thread Lyle Taylor
I'm more inclined to think that something happened when the application was 
installed (or patched).  The Spanish view shows the exact same thing, values in 
English and aliases in Spanish.  Updating the affected fields on the English 
view of the form has fixed the problem.

Thanks,
Lyle

It may be that the Alias is View specific, but the Value is server specific?

Well, I think I may have found the problem for at least a couple of the fields. 
 For some reason, the selection fields on the English views have the Selection 
Values in English, but the Alias in Spanish.  Not sure how that happened.  I'll 
get those fixed and see where that leaves us...

Thanks, David.  Use Locale us currently set to False for this table.  However, 
if I'm understanding the documentation correctly, I'm not sure that field 
property is related to the issue I'm seeing.  It looks like it effectively adds 
another filter to the table's qualification such that only records in the 
user's locale are shown, not that it will affect what locale is used to display 
information.  For example, if I have requests in Spanish and English (and the 
Locale field on the record is set appropriately for each request), checking Use 
Locale would effectively cause only the English tickets to be displayed if my 
locale is set to English.  Am I understanding that correctly?

In this case, however, all requests are being displayed, it's just not using 
the correct locale for the selection value labels.

Thanks,
Lyle

From the What's New in AR System 7.1.00 document:

Locale-aware table fields

Table fields in AR System 7.1.00 can be refreshed with specific locale 
information by selecting the Use Locale check box option in the Advanced 
Display tab of the Field Properties dialog box. When the box for this option is 
checked, the system returns only entries for the user's locale when the table 
is refreshed. This option applies only to table fields and tree fields on a 
form; it does not apply to results lists.

For more information about these features, see the Form and Application Objects 
guide.

Hi All,

ARS 7.1 p6

What determines which locale is used to display information in a table field?  
We have a situation where a form has a table in it, and some of the information 
in the table is displayed in Spanish, and some in English.  The form is really 
just a custom view added to the HDP:Help Desk form, and we have the Spanish and 
English locales installed for Incident Management.  On this view, we have 
duplicated the Relationships tab with the associations table.  The locale for 
this view is set to NULL, which, as I understand it, is how all the English 
views should be, and the other English views on this form are set that way.

So, when you view a record, some of the values are in English, and others in 
Spanish.  For example, the Relationship Type and Status are in English, but the 
Record Type is in Spanish.  This also happens with other fields on other OOB 
forms.  For example, if I want to relate an Incident to another one, when I 
select the relationship type in the Incident Relationship Search dialog, even 
though the rest of the dialog is in English (I'm seeing the English view of the 
form), the relationship types displayed in the Relationship Type drop down list 
are in Spanish.

My initial thought is that this might have something to do with either the 
database sort order or sort orders defined on a form somewhere, but I'm not 
sure where to look.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Lyle Taylor

Re: Reloading ar.conf file

arsignal -c hostname:[ARTCPORT] does it for the most part.. If your
changes still do not take into effect, then you would need to restart the AR
Server.. there have been times / instances where this utility did not do it

Server-side Log Files empty

2009-08-10 Thread Kali Obsum
Hi,
 
We have an external application that connects to remedy through the
Remedy APIs. We would like to trace what happens (what workflows are
triggered etc) so we turned on the logging in the server by going to
File-Server Information-Logs and checking the API, Filter, User logs,
then asking them to perform a process in the external application.
However, when I went to the server, the log files are created but no
activity was recorded.

Depends on what type of activity you are trying to track.  If they perform a
GetListEntry, that would show up under API, if they update a record, that
would cause the filters to fire, what are they doing that you want to track?

Then if they are successfully updating the records, you should see an SE+
and SE- (SetEntry) in the API portion of the log, and you should see the
filters that are firing on update.  Are the records successfully getting
