Re: RKM 7.5
I too have seen issues with installing 7.5 but a manual import of the def files (or re-running the install) and upgrading hummingbird went okay for me. I think it is wise to move to patch1 - there are many issues resolved in it. Support can also get you a hotfix above patch1.

Way back I would take the tutorials before the actual conference started and sometimes by Thursday your mind was in a major meltdown. I thought the pace was just right this year. I also thought there was more time to chat among ourselves which is of great value too. The variety of sessions was good and the ones I attended for the most part were technically orientated. I always came home with ideas, and this year was no different. And it's nice to get that shot of excitement. To want to try new things that you can share next year.

Re: Server Information Plug-in not working
I don't have 7.5 but when I patched my server (7.1P2 -- 7.1P6) the patch overwrote my armonitor.cfg file and, as Tommy stated, I was missing some lines... Also, I have 3 plug-in servers running. I patched the main server, then had to copy the updated ARPlugin.exe file to the other two servers.

Re: Oracle RAC failover
Yes, we have three servers running in a server group - one admin server and two user-facing servers. We have ARS 7.1 p5 on Windows Server 2003 with half of ITSM 7.0.3 p6. Oracle is running on Linux (not sure which version, but may be a version of Suse - I can find out if it makes a difference). We use LDAP instead of TNSNAMES, but this is (the edited - formatting added, names and ports changed) the output of tnsping: C:\Users\lyletaylortnsping remedypr1 TNS Ping Utility for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production on 16-NOV-2 009 15:18:26 Copyright (c) 1997, 2006, Oracle.

We've failed over between the two that are actively up when we've had to restart the databases due to patching, certain config changes, etc. In those cases, they shutdown one, make the change, bring it up, and then do the same on the other, pushing us back and forth between them. I'm not sure about how we compare to what's listed under FAILOVER_MODE in your entry. Perhaps we're using Oracle client defaults; I don't know what those would be, however.

Defined Search
Hi All, Our remedy application is used by different clients and we have a requirement to create a tool that would create the defined searches without them actually doing it in the form through the admin tool. I am trying to look for the best approach to create a small app to help the client admin create these searches and also if they import new remedy def files from us they could use this tool to recreate the searches (make sense) Is there remedy api call that could set this - I saw the information is saved as a display property? Can AR System Search Preference form be used in any way? Directly updating the DB? Need some guidance - not sure if I am totally off base...

But this conference was very much like those of the 90's. Everyone there was a Remedy person. Everyone had the same interests and more than willingly to share their experiences. I hope we do keep this format. I really like the tutorials at the beginning of the day. Way back I would take the tutorials before the actual conference started and sometimes by Thursday your mind was in a major meltdown. I thought the pace was just right this year. I also thought there was more time to chat among ourselves which is of great value too. The variety of sessions was good and the ones I attended for the most part were technically orientated. I always came home with ideas, and this year was no different. And it's nice to get that shot of excitement. To want to try new things that you can share next year. I have to say, I was pleasantly pleased with the organization of the event. From my view everything went very smooth, I'm sure at times the organizers were scrambling, but it didn't show.

User unable to save preferences in a Table Field (Mid Tier)
Hello, The problem I have is that user is unable to save preferences in a Table Filed in their browser. The form has three views, all used with Mid Tier, and in two of the views the user is able to save preferences such as column width and column order. But in the third view even if the user uses save preferences, each time they log in the table is set to default. I can even see the changes the user does in the form AR System User Preferences, but when they open the form the preferences are not read. But their changes are saved and kept in the AR System User Preferences form. Anyone have idea why this is happening?
