There are ways to check the hostid of the server and compare that to

  - For a number of forms, EXTERNAL() function does work perfect where

  qualification as 1=1.
  - Entering qualification string(s) manually into Table Properties

  So,
  - Qualification strings I am using must be valid, both on EXTERNAL()

   Just to make sure things are clear...  You have a form (FormA) that has a 
   table field on it.  That table field is displaying data from FormX.  You 
   have a display only character field (zTempQualX) on FormA to hold the 
   external qualification for the table.

   If you just type into zTempQualX you can type  'Task ID' = TSK01  
   To build that string in workflow you would use   'Task ID' =  + 
   $SomeFieldOnFormA$ +   

   For your problem... Are you sure that the field on FormX is 'Task ID' ?  
   Try using the Field ID of the field on FormX   '1' = TSK01  

   I have seen problems where the field name does not always work, but using

   It feels like it should have something to do with the properties of

if you are entering the qualification as 'Task ID' = TSK01 in an

within two double quotes so the 'TSK01' needs to be something like 
  TSK01   .
I have put spaces to show you the double quotes, you need to remove the 
spaces.
make your char field visible and then have a look at what the 
qualification looks like and you will what is wrong. you can enter the 
qual as you have shown in the EXTERNAL qualification field and just 
right click on the table and refresh it, it will show the correct data, 
but if you do a Set Fields then you have to triple the double quotes.
Let me know if this fixes your problem or you need further help.

Qualification I am using is something basic like 'Task ID' =

Weird thing is that when I enter the qualification string manually on
Table Properties it works perfect, but not via the character field.

We have upgraded our training system from 6.3 to 7.5 and got there in
the end!  I just sent a long reply to Kathy but it bounced so I'll keep
this one short in case it doesn't work either.
 
We had a lot of different issues upgrading and were on the phone to our
support partners a LOT.  We are on Solaris.  I'd recommend looking at
the specific error messages and the files that are created
(arsystem_install_log.txt, ARServer-RIKPostUpgrade.log etc).
 
I had to delete our user preference and admin preference forms before it
would install cleanly.
 
If you use archiving, there is a known error and a workaround to
manually amend the column archiveFromForm in the table schema_archive.
 
I had to manually amend the behavior and permission columns in
FILTER_NOTIFY, changing the value from 0 to NULL before the upgrade and
changing it back afterwards.

Isabel

Do you know any known issues or any tips about it?

** 

Make darn sure that you have planned for recovery (back up db
before each step, and make copies of all file directories before
beginning), and have tested recovery procedures (restore db from backup,
and deleting or renaming file folders for applications left behind by
any failed install) for each step of the upgrade, ESPECIALLY for the
AtriumCore installer which I have only seen succeed once in our
environment with the minimum number of features.  Some of the app
installers had to be run a second time to clear all errors; not all of
them will run more than once against the same file structure.  I am
waiting for the 7.5.00.003 patches to come out before I try any of this
again.

 

Known problems with AIE, if you have it installed, are that it
must be patched to at least 7.1.00.004 before the upgrade, and if it
fails it will delete not only the instance that you are upgrading but
any other instances that are installed on the same server in the default
directory.  I don't know what the prerequisites are if you are coming in
from 7.0 instead of 7.1, but I would expect there to be some.

 

If you have customized ANY forms or workflow, rehearse and
script the restoration of those customizations as it is a good bet that
the various 7.5 upgrade installers will overwrite them.  Some, like
searching for customers in ITSM 7.0, have been _extensively_ rewritten
and that will break any customizations that you have made to the module.
If you are just using ARS, not ITSM, the password management code
changed a lot from 7.0 to 7.1 and again to 7.5.

 

Suggestion: if you have any flashboards that are actively
storing History, edit them to have a current start date and an
expiration period, and still watch out for an explosion of data in the
FB:History table.  After upgrading from 7.1 to 7.5, and at the end of
one month, our FB:History form suddenly gained 41 million records in two
days.

 

My last testing was in July with all patch 002 distributions on
Windows x64 platforms, so your experience will be different but some of
the pitfalls will be the same.

Re: Upgrade AR System from 7.0 to 7.5

2009-09-09 Thread Ross, Isabel (Access LLP)
Well I'm just in the process of upgrading from 6.3 t
Hello Kathy
 
Well I'm just in the process of upgrading from 6.3 to 7.5 and so far its
been more painful than expected.
 
This is on Solaris 10, Oracle 10g, with windows mid-tier.
 
Issues:
- 7.5 user tool was very slow loading large forms (particularly if they
had table fields on) - this is resolved if you use patch 2 of the user
tool
- Dev Studio is unwieldy.  It may just take some getting used to, but
until I have lots of time on my hands I'm going to continue doing
development on the 7.1 admin tool.  Basic things have become much
harder, e.g. adding help text takes several extra clicks, and you can no
longer copy and paste the name of the active link you're working on, say
for example if you are documenting your workflow.  I'd be interested to
hear other people's opinion of the dev studio.  It could just be that I
need to spend some time getting to grips with it and then I'll never
look back.
- We also got some weird errors to do with permissions that we didn't
get to the bottom of.. if I copy an existing active link it seems to
think it has public permission 6 times over and won't let me save the
active link till I remove the public permissions, save it, then add them
back in again.
- Problem with using string replacements to find and replace carriage
returns.  Sounds like this may be a known issue - as far as I can tell,
string replacement of carriage returns will simply not work.  If there
is a workaround I'd be happy to hear about it!
- Issues displaying on mid-tier.  If you have a large field which
displays the first 3 lines on-screen and then you click the expand
button to view the full details, the third line of the expand box shows
the top half of the text missing.  This corrects itself if the user
clicks on it or selects all the text, but that's not something we'd want
to ask our users to do so are hoping there is a way around this.  I
think its caused by the nice sliding effect that has been built into
mid-tier.   
- issues with table-fields.  In 6.3 you could create a table field and
add dummy columns to it, i.e. just selecting fields from the current
form as columns (i.e the ones that are labelled as field type
display).  I used this quite a lot for temporarily storing a variable
during a table-walk.  Workflow which was tried and tested on 6.3 just
stopped working on 7.5 until I amended it so that it was using a data
column instead, i.e. a field which was selected from the underlying form
(even though it was only used for temporary on-screen calculations).  It
doesn't affect all columns, and may only be a problem when the column
contains a date.  I haven't had time yet to fully investigate when it
does and doesn't work.
- date issues where active links used UK dates but filters used US
dates.  Solution to this was to change the arsystem start-up script to
contain LANG=en_GB (even though this wasn't necessary in 6.3) - thanks
to Mark Walters for pointing us in the right direction on this one.
Once we knew what the issue was it was easy fixed.
- mid-tier display is different.  Text and boxes which previously had a
background the same as the colour of the form now have a white
background (but when viewed on the user tool, is the same as ever) Fixed
this by changing the display mode from opaque  to transparent (this
fixes it for mid-tier and has no unwanted side-effects on the display of
the same form on the user tool).
 
Also needed to carry out quite a few manual changes before the install
routine would work, but that may be to do with upgrading from 6.3 and
with a bit of luck you won't get that if you've gone via 7.0.
 
As long as you have a development environment and plenty of patience I'm
sure it'll be fine..
 
Good luck!
Isabel

Ok, thank you very much for the answer, Isabel.

Now, I'm trying to do the upgrade in two steps:

   - First, upgrade from 6.3 to 7.1 (Succeded)
   - Second, upgrade from 7.1 to 7.5

I didn't try the second step yet. I hope to send you good news when I have
done it!!!

 ** Miguel

 We have upgraded our training system from 6.3 to 7.5 and got there in the
 end!  I just sent a long reply to Kathy but it bounced so I'll keep this one
 short in case it doesn't work either.

 We had a lot of different issues upgrading and were on the phone to our
 support partners a LOT.  We are on Solaris.  I'd recommend looking at the
 specific error messages and the files that are created 
 (arsystem_install_log.txt,
 ARServer-RIKPostUpgrade.log etc).

 I had to delete our user preference and admin preference forms before it
 would install cleanly.

 If you use archiving, there is a known error and a workaround to manually
 amend the column archiveFromForm in the table schema_archive.

 I had to manually amend the behavior and permission columns in
 FILTER_NOTIFY, changing the value from 0 to NULL before the upgrade and
 changing it back afterwards.

 Regards
 Isabel

 Make darn sure that you have planned for recovery (back up db before each
 step, and make copies of all file directories before beginning), and have
 tested recovery procedures (restore db from backup, and deleting or renaming
 file folders for applications left behind by any failed install) for each
 step of the upgrade, ESPECIALLY for the AtriumCore installer which I have
 only seen succeed once in our environment with the minimum number of
 features.  Some of the app installers had to be run a second time to clear
 all errors; not all of them will run more than once against the same file
 structure.  I am waiting for the 7.5.00.003 patches to come out before I try
 any of this again.



 Known problems with AIE, if you have it installed, are that it must be
 patched to at least 7.1.00.004 before the upgrade, and if it fails it will
 delete not only the instance that you are upgrading but any other instances
 that are installed on the same server in the default directory.  I don’t
 know what the prerequisites are if you are coming in from 7.0 instead of
 7.1, but I would expect there to be some.



 If you have customized ANY forms or workflow, rehearse and script the
 restoration of those customizations as it is a good bet that the various 7.5
 upgrade installers will overwrite them.  Some, like searching for customers
 in ITSM 7.0, have been _*extensively*_ rewritten and that will break any
 customizations that you have made to the module.  If you are just using ARS,
 not ITSM, the password management code changed a lot from 7.0 to 7.1 and
 again to 7.5.



 Suggestion: if you have any flashboards that are actively storing History,
 edit them to have a current start date and an expiration period, and still

Mike,
We ran into the same thing on 7.5 with the disk space issue.  I opened a 
call with BMC and got the following response:

Windows 7 falls under the or higher release part of the BMC 
compatibility Matrix and thus will be supported upon its GA release later 
this year.  Note that since Windows 7 has not yet been released, it 
wouldn't be supported until Microsoft GA's it.

An analyst here said he was able to get the 6.3 client to install.  We did 
not try 7.1.

Re: Windows 7 x64 and Remedy user clients

2009-09-09 Thread Easter, David
Just as an FYI, the 64-bit versions of desktop OS's are not supported for use 
with the Remedy User client - so such installations would be considered 
unconfirmed per the compatibility matrix.  BMC tests the Remedy User client 
with 32-bit versions of desktop OS's like XP, Vista and Windows 7.

Also, make sure to use a business oriented edition of Vista or Windows 7.   For 
Windows 7, that means Professional, Enterprise or Ultimate.

Re: ARS 7.5 and Perl API

2009-09-09 Thread Thilo Stapff

It depends.

For now, there has been no official release of ARSperl for ARS 7.5.
There is a developer version on Sourceforge which can be downloaded via 
CVS, see http://sourceforge.net/scm/?type=cvsgroup_id=116013; how to 
do this.


This version is known to work at least on Windows. On Linux, compiling 
against the 64bit API produces a totally non-working binary, which seems 
to be a problem of compiling anything against the API together with Perl 
libraries. This has beem by acknowledged by BMC as a product defect 
(SW00330613). I don't know (and have no machine on which I could test 
this) about other Unix flavors.

Subject: Re: ARS 7.5 and Perl API

 It may be that the Perl API hasn't been updated for 7.5but I 
 believe the existing ones should continue to work against a 7.5 server

So you're still on ARS  7.5?

Is there anyone here working on 7.5 already and using the Perl API?

Someone told me he read about BMC no longer supporting Perl API in 7.5... I
don't believe it, that's why I'm asking.


Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

Just as a side note, the ARS Perl API was never officially suppoted by BMC.
It has always been one of the unsupported APIs.

word/OLE automation

2009-09-09 Thread Rogerio Aguiar
 Hi there,
 I'm trying to export some data from a table field to an word
document using an active link guide and ole automation. I've been
able to export and format the whole text but when I try to format and
export pieces of data separately, remedy is exporting each record in a
new word document. I'm trying something like this:
 Sentences(  ).First(  ).Font(  ).Bold( 1 )
 Sentences(  ).First(  ).ParagraphFormat(  ).Alignment( 0 )
 Sentences(  ).First(  ).InsertAfter( Type:  )
 Sentences(  ).First(  ).Font(  ).Bold( 0 )
 Sentences(  ).First(  ).InsertAfter( $column1$ )
 What I want is to export all the data to the same document. What is
the problem with my approach?

I don't know whether this is the right place to post this question. I have to

A user is an entry in the User form.  You would use the respective
create/update/delete methods for an entry to manipulate users.

Wellas part of your ARServerUser object you have the options of
 
createEntry, setEntry, and deleteEntry.  The form you want to perform these
entries in may be named User, depending on the language of the server you
are accessing.  You could use either getEntry, getListEntry, or
getListEntryObjects to find the entries you are looking forI hope this
helps.

Re: how to add, modify or delete ars users using java API???????????

2009-09-09 Thread Easter, David
You may also consider using web services to do such changes rather than an API 
call.  Using a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) would help insulate you from 
product version changes/upgrades, functionality changes in the API, etc.  The 
web services for add/delete/modify users are provided by AR System out of the 
box.

Chapter 6 of the Integration Guide covers web services:

 A web service provides an interface that enables messages to be sent to and 
received from an application over a network (Internet or intranet), using 
standard Internet technologies. AR System web services use a combination of 
protocols such as HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Extensible Markup 
Language (XML).

AR System web services make AR System operations-such as submit, modify, and 
query-available to other applications regardless of hardware or software 
platforms and independent of the programming languages in which the 
applications are written. You publish web services to make AR System 
functionality available over the web. You consume web services when you use AR 
System applications to access third party web services. You use BMC Remedy 
Developer Studio to create and publish AR System web services to be used and 
consumed by external applications.

Expand Box for character fields... bug maybe???

2009-09-09 Thread Joe DeSouza
Listers,

I guess its my turn to bug the list for a bit :-)

I have noticed this a few days ago but thought I'd bring this up 
with Remedy Support later but before I do wanted to see what I hear from you 
guys here..

I have character fields where I have the Expand Box hidden.. WORKS with 
SINGLE-ROW fields.. However if I define a MULTIPLE-ROW field, the expand box 
DOES NOT HIDE irrespective of the choice of hiding or not hiding it. This 
happens both on the thick as well as the thin client..

I am almost dead sure it did hide when instructed to hide in the older 
versions..

Has anyone noticed anything in the new documentations that this new behavior 
may be as designed? Or is this a small cosmetic bug?

It looks ugly if you have a text field that you have displayed as text to 
display stuff like tips or whatever which you know would fit in the real estate 
you provided for it, but you see that ugly box on the form when you do not even 
need it..

What version are you on again?

I just tested it and when I set the field properties to hide the box it hides 
on both.  I tested the multi-row character field with the Show as Text option 
both checked and unchecked.

I am using ARS 7.1.0 patch 7 (all parts: Server, User Tool, and Mid-Tier) on

Is there a way to utilize these reports via the Report form and run them

Printing a diary field from the web does not wrap and some information is missing

2009-09-09 Thread White, Ed
I have diary field that is included in a report that I use for printing a
record.  In the user tool if you preview the report and there is a lot of
data in the diary field, the information prints as expected.

However in the web, the diary field will not wrap, and you only get what is
visible on the screen.  Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

I am using midtier 7.0.1 on Windows 2003 servers.  Our institution uses i.e.

7.5 or 7.6

All,

I am starting to see some info from BMC on 7.6. So I need to ask is 7.5
already being surpassed by 7.6 or are my old eyes playing tricks on me?

If there is a 7.6, does that mean that support for 7.0.0 is now over?

Re: 7.5 or 7.6

2009-09-09 Thread Easter, David
First off - this is where being very specific about Company, brand, product 
name and version is important.  I posted a blog entry about this on BMC DN:

http://communities.bmc.com/communities/community/bmcdn/bmc_atrium_and_foundation_technologies/bmc_remedy_ar_system/blog/2009/01/21/company-brand-product-version---why-all-are-important-to-keep-straight

Several BMC Remedy applications will soon be revisioning to a version of 7.6.  
For example, applications within the ITSM suite of products (Change Management, 
Asset Management, Service Desk) will be revisioning collectively as BMC Remedy 
ITSM 7.6.  Other applications may also revision to a version 7.6 over the next 
several months.

AR System is not revisioning to version 7.6 in that same time frame.  AR System 
will remain at version 7.5.00 until the next major release - which is 
tentatively scheduled to occur in mid 2010.  The tentative numbering for the 
next AR System release is 8.0.00.

When AR System 8.0.00 releases, then AR System 7.0.01 would become unsupported. 
 When AR System 8.0.00 releases, the supported AR System versions would then be 
8.0.00, 7.5.00 and 7.1.00.  7.1.00 would be the C-2 release and thus be in 
limited support as per the BMC Product Support Policy.

Re: Expand Box for character fields... bug maybe???

2009-09-09 Thread Joe DeSouza
Fredrick,

I'm sorry I missed out on the environment..

7.5 Patch 2 all the way from the ARS to thick client to the Mid-Tier.. ARS is 
on Windows 2003 server, and the client OS's can range anywhere between XP to 
Vista. Oracle 10 Release 2 is the underlying database and IIS 6 is my customers 
choice of a web server which uses Tomcat 5.5.25 as the jsp engine..

Cheers

Joe

What version are you on again?

I just tested it and when I set the field properties to hide the box it hides 
on both.  I tested the multi-row character field with the Show as Text option 
both checked and unchecked.

I am using ARS 7.1.0 patch 7 (all parts: Server, User Tool, and Mid-Tier) on 
Solaris w/Oracle.

I have noticed this a few days ago but thought I'd bring this up

I have character fields where I have the Expand Box hidden.. WORKS with 
SINGLE-ROW fields.. However if I define a MULTIPLE-ROW field, the expand box 
DOES NOT HIDE irrespective of the choice of hiding or not hiding it. This 
happens both on the thick as well as the thin client..
 
I am almost dead sure it did hide when instructed to hide in the older 
versions..
 
Has anyone noticed anything in the new documentations that this new behavior 
may be as designed? Or is this a small cosmetic bug?
 
It looks ugly if you have a text field that you have displayed as text to 
display stuff like tips or whatever which you know would fit in the real estate 
you provided for it, but you see that ugly box on the form when you do not even 
need it..

2009-09-09 Thread Joe DeSouza
Hello Ricki,

That's odd.. It doesn't work for me.. How different is your environment from 
mine?

I am on Windows 2003
ARS 7.5 Patch 2
User Tool 7.5 Patch 2
Dev Studio 7.5 Patch 2
Mid-Tier 7.5 Patch 2
Oracle database 10 Release 2
Browsers : Usually IE 6 on production, and 7 and 8 in test environment
I also use FireFox 3.5 for fun although its not a standard here.
JSP Engine: Tomcat 5.5.25

I am yet to see a type of client in my environment where the expand box hides 
on multiple rows character fields. Change them to single row and it hides..

I am yet to trust the new Development Studio as much as I used to trust the 
older Admin tool :-) so I just thought I'd add that the form was developed 
using the new development tool-set after installing ARS 7.5 Patch 2. It wasn't 
a form that was upgraded from an earlier release..

Joe

PS: Due to some problems I noticed on the list lately I thought I'd CC you my 
reply. So I apologize in advance if that might bother you.

Re: 7.5 or 7.6

2009-09-09 Thread strauss
So what is ITSM 7.6 ?... 7.5 with working installers and better QA (I hope, 
especially in the case of Atrium Core)?  Or are they re-designing it yet again, 
meaning that the interfaces and blocks of code in the plumbing will change too? 
 Or, is 7.6 just 7.5 with better integration to the non-Remedy applications in 
the BMC arsenal (which would imply even more changes to the Atrium Core)?

It would be helpful to know that while we are trying to plan for an upgrade or 
migration from 7.1/7.0.3 to 7.5/7.5 within the next 6 months.  Code quality, or 
lack thereof in the upgrade installers, has already delayed that into or past 
the fall semester.

First off - this is where being very specific about Company, brand, product 
name and version is important.  I posted a blog entry about this on BMC DN:

Several BMC Remedy applications will soon be revisioning to a version of 7.6.  
For example, applications within the ITSM suite of products (Change Management, 
Asset Management, Service Desk) will be revisioning collectively as BMC Remedy 
ITSM 7.6.  Other applications may also revision to a version 7.6 over the next 
several months.

AR System is not revisioning to version 7.6 in that same time frame.  AR System 
will remain at version 7.5.00 until the next major release - which is 
tentatively scheduled to occur in mid 2010.  The tentative numbering for the 
next AR System release is 8.0.00.

When AR System 8.0.00 releases, then AR System 7.0.01 would become unsupported. 
 When AR System 8.0.00 releases, the supported AR System versions would then be 
8.0.00, 7.5.00 and 7.1.00.  7.1.00 would be the C-2 release and thus be in 
limited support as per the BMC Product Support Policy.

Since it's not yet released - and apps aren't in my direct circle of control - 
I can't speak too much about that.  But primarily the new version centers 
around implementing further simplified best practice views - which started with 
Service Desk in ITSM 7.5.x - and additional KPI  ROI reporting/dashboards.

Could you give us more information about the implementation:

 

ARS Version

OS

DB Version

etc.

There are ways to check the hostid of the server and compare that to
what is in the license file/Admin tool etc.  Getting some of this
information varies depending on the type of server you have implemented.

I've checked by going to Licenses-Add/Remove Licenses and the AR Server

Re: ar system duplicate forms and workflow

Sorry about the delay. network
issues.

Here are some examples:

It looks like the it started about 2 weeks ago when it was
reported
in the arerror log that it could not locate the email form (arerr
9801). Then yesterday it started reporting:

"A required form for email is missing. Server will attempt to import
the form in place. Please verify the form gets imported or import it
manually to ensure the email engine will work properly. (arerr 9802)"

Then immediately it started reporting the duplicate workflow and
forms. Eamples below:
"Tue Sep 08 14:50:21 2009 390600 : Duplicate form name : AR
System Email Attachment Join (ARERR 317)
Tue Sep 08 14:50:21 2009 390600 : Duplicate form name : AR System

  Subject: ar system duplicate forms and workflow
  
  
** Folks, I have a problem with the
AR System forms and workflow.
  
I have noticed errors in the arerror.log file that says there is
duplicate forms and workflow. This was a new in install as of 3 months
ago. I do not remembers these errors after the install, but it was 3
months ago. The log file says there is duplicate forms and workflow of
the ar system forms. I have looked in the database and our DBA has
looked and we do not see anything duplicated. This came to light we we
were told that email was no longer being received. I have used the ar
system email messages form and and created a new record and the email
was sent.
  
This is on a ars 6.3 patch20 system with SQL 2000/MS 2003 server. I
know it is no longer being supported, but I have no choice right now.
Anybody remember anything that can be of help. I know I can reinstall
the email engine, but management have concerns about a reinstall.
  
  
Thanks in advance

Re: Error while executing a WebService.

2009-09-09 Thread Frank Caruso
The fields you added are now required. Check the properties on the new
fields in the Input Mapping. There is a property that controls whether
the field is required (sorry ... do not remember the name of the
property)
