Re: One Mid-Tier many ARS servers
If you are talking about two ARS servers (same application) that are server grouped, then you could put a load balancer in front of the two ARS servers and have the MidTier point to the load balanced IP.

I have an active link firing on Window Loaded. It sees a field as having no value when it fires. That makes me not happy, because the value is there or should be there. The submit window is opened by a macro with a parameter, and the macro is correctly populating the parameter value on the field. I can see it when the window is fully open (meaning active links have all completed firing). When a submit window opens, my understanding is that by the time Window Loaded event occurs, all field values (set by set to default feature, sent with a macro etc) should already be there on the fields, such that on Window Loaded active links should see the values. Why is my active link not seeing the field value? I put a debug message, and yes, the field is blank when the active links fires. But the value gets to the field, when the window has opened fully.

Re: AR System 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 Upgrade Effort Estimates
Jiri, I've done a similar upgrade from ARS 7.1 to 7.5.3 and CMDB 2.1 to 7.6. You'll should do this in phases. Better check the upgrade path from 7.0.1 to 7.5, I've had to first do the necessary patches (pereqs) before I could upgrade ARS to 7.5.3. Plus the necessary patches for CMDB and ITSM before you go to 7.6. In a SQL 2005 environment which was server grouped, it took about 3 hours to do the necessary patching of ARS and CMDB and ITSM (IM/PM/CM/SLM). To do the jump to ARS 7.5.3 (at a later date) it took about an hour, actually it was less than that, but once you take account for backup and testing and everything else included in an implementation plan. The jump to CMDB 7.6.1 took about 3 hours. ITSM 7.6 upgrade took about 5 hours on a VM sandbox with 4GB of RAM and a 2.0 processor. Haven't rolled out to production yet. You should also rollout the 7.5.x WUT. For developers, you will need to familiarize yourself with the new Developer Studio. As for EndUser training, you can choose NOT to use the Best Practice Views until you have trained them accordingly. That should give you a rough estimate. Hope that helps.

Re: Default Web path in Server Information
I think the second point given by Pritch below is the key. The load balancer between the midtier and the server needs to have session persistence turned on so that it always directs a given user to the same backend server during their session. Otherwise, it may direct them to the other server at some point, causing it to try to log in the person again, generating the error you're seeing. I would NOT recommend making the default web path point to the specific AR servers, however.

Re: Limiting Queries
If you are forcing users to store their preferences on the Preference Server, you can use workflow to enforce whatever data values on any value in that form. So you could set the default value to 1000, but allow workflow to change the value based on whatever you wanted. Change the permissions on that field, though, so that only Administrators and workflow can alter the value. If you don't force users to store centralized preferences, they can still override it by going local with the old ar.ini file.

Re: On Window Loaded active link doesn't see field values???
Phil, This is an interesting piece of information. I will give it a try. Nicky: I wish I could avoid a macro, but I don't know of any other way (than DDE/Macro) another (ACD) application can open a window in Remedy User. Somebody suggested creating and having Windows open a xx.ARTask file, which will trigger a window in Remedy User. This works for a window with empty or default field values, or for showing an existing ticket, but I can't have the ACD application pass field values to a Submit window through ARTask. Or I don't know how. I'm going to start another thread with ACD in the subject line to find out people have their ACD application integrated with Remedy User. Gary: The steps you mentioned doesn't solve the problem of win Open and Win Loaded active links not seeing the field values. Fred: I have the best I can get at v6.3, patch 25. We have 6.3 here, so I am not testing with 7.x. It would be interesting to know what happens in 7.

I recall that the interactions between the user's Set Defaults preferences, the Window Open/Loaded firing conditions, and field values were causing our project team some trouble back in the late '90s. One of Remedy's engineers suggested to have the ALs fire on Gain Focus of the first field listed in the tab order for the view instead of using Window Open/Loaded. We took it a step further and created a display-only field that was _always_ first in tab order (the field was named first in tab order), and placed it underneath another field so the users wouldn't see it.

Phil, This is an interesting piece of information. I will give it a try. Nicky: I wish I could avoid a macro, but I don't know of any other way (than DDE/Macro) another (ACD) application can open a window in Remedy User. Somebody suggested creating and having Windows open a xx.ARTask file, which will trigger a window in Remedy User. This works for a window with empty or default field values, or for showing an existing ticket, but I can't have the ACD application pass field values to a Submit window through ARTask. Or I don't know how. I'm going to start another thread with ACD in the subject line to find out people have their ACD application integrated with Remedy User. Gary: The steps you mentioned doesn't solve the problem of win Open and Win Loaded active links not seeing the field values. Fred: I have the best I can get at v6.3, patch 25. We have 6.3 here, so I am not testing with 7.x. It would be interesting to know what happens in 7.

I recall that the interactions between the user's Set Defaults preferences, the Window Open/Loaded firing conditions, and field values were causing our project team some trouble back in the late '90s. One of Remedy's engineers suggested to have the ALs fire on Gain Focus of the first field listed in the tab order for the view instead of using Window Open/Loaded. We took it a step further and created a display-only field that was _always_ first in tab order (the field was named first in tab order), and placed it underneath another field so the users wouldn't see it. Something about not being able to use a hidden field for this trick is also tickling my brain.

Now it works, when the macro opens an intermediate window, on which an on interval active links fires after 3 seconds. This on interval active link sees all the field values received on the form (and correctly processes them as I want, and opens the target window with , my main goal). The same active link, when it fires on Window Load on the intermediate or the target form doesn't work. Meaning can't see the field values on the form passed by the macro. Now I have a useless window saying Opening, please wait... delaying the user for 3 seconds before the target window is opened by the on interval active link. Me not too happy.

ACD integration with Remedy User: Not able to have active links see received field values
HI all, If you have any application on a user's PC (such as ACD software client) opening a ticket form (say, submit mode) in Remedy user... ...and you have active links on this form that receive some field values from the software and take any action **as the window is opening** ...please let me know the secret of getting this done. Doing the following, I am NOT able to have active links on the form that opens process the info received from the software: -this software does a DDE Call to run a macro in Remedy user, passes some field values as parameters -Macro causes Remedy User to open that form in submit mode -Window Loaded active links on this form read received values and take some action My issue is that the Window Loaded active links see all field values as blank. That is, when a form is **opened by a macro** (as opposed to: by Open Window action in active link, or user manually opening a form), field values appear to be loaded on the form, only **after** window loaded event has completed. It's supposed to happen before the Window Loaded event.

API programs: need lazy guy's version of create/update/query tickets on Windows
Hi all, I need a way a third party Windows application can create/update/query tickets in Remedy. I know there are tons of ways, but if somebody has a sample code in any common windows language (.Net? VB? Java?), or better yet a generic program that can take form name and field/value pairs etc as parameters (there used to be esp_getentry, esp_setentry etc), let me know. I just don't want to spend a lot of time to start from scratch. I can't do Web Services (mismatch of Midtier and ARS versions). I am about to search around for a code base to start with, but if anybody has anything handy, send my way or let me know. I have perl code in Unix, but porting that over ti Windows is some work.

Re: Future of OLE/DDE integrations?

Set multiple Status levels in a guide.
Hello Listers, ARS 7.1 Patch 6 MS SQL 2005 I am trying to get a guide to run multiple filters that step through the status levels in our home grown Helpdesk. I record the Status-History.TIME.XYZ values to gather metrics. We need to prevent tickets from skipping certain status levels but the Helpdesk Supervisor wants the ability to click a Quick Close button. This button will be used at submit time to set the Status-History.TIME.New, Status-History.TIME.Assigned, Status-History.TIME.Resolved and the AutoClose date field. I want it to simulate the action of stepping through the status values or just recording the time in the Status-History.Time values. I tried making two filters that do SET fields Status - Assigned and Status - Resolved respectively. I run them in a guide but the only status value that gets set is the one associated with the second filter in the guide. ( If is swap them the ticket is Assigned and not Resolved.) TIA, --- John J. Reiser Senior Software Development Analyst Remedy Administrator/Developer Lockheed Martin - MS2 The star that burns twice as bright burns half as long.

Re: Set multiple Status levels in a guide.
If you only need two values, what about having the first Filter fire in Phase 1? Would that make any difference?

Re: Delete Option
I used this method to lock down both Modify All and Delete permissions on all of our current forms. But I wanted the administrator to still have access to these options so i created a view with them enabled. Now the only problem is the Default Form View field available on the Advanced tab of the User Options under Tools. If a user knew the name of the Admistrator view, they could enter it into that field, and then open that view for all the forms that they can reach from the object list and using any workflow that does not specify a specific view. Granted for regular Users this will only grant Modify All permissions and they would need to know the exact name of the view for all forms, but this is still a loophole that could be exploited. Is there any way to disable this field in the menu or to deny permissions to certain views? I have gone into the actual User Preference form and disabled that field, but it still works in the menu item. The closest i could get to blocking it was a filter that set the default view to null if the user is not an administrator, but this does not seem to apply to the user until the next time they log in. But durring the session that they specify a default view the name they entered remains in use. I can not get this to overwrite their entry while they are in the options pop-up which would be the ideal place to do it.

Re: Set multiple Status levels in a guide.
What you need to do is to perform some sort of commit between the setting of the status values. It depends on what your button does. One method is to use Active Link(s) and perform a Commit Changes action between setting the values. If you really want to use Filters (so the user can do a Set All) you can always do a Push action to the same form setting the Status = Status + 1 Fred From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Rick Cook Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 4:41 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Set multiple Status levels in a guide. ** If you only need two values, what about having the first Filter fire in Phase 1?

Re: Future of OLE/DDE integrations?
The way I see it... When you draw that line and say NO MORE DDE or, more to this point, NO MORE USER TOOL, there are people that will never cross that line and will actually get left behind of their own accord. You can't always just go back to the 3rd party vendor and insist that they change their ways. When they don't respond because it doesn't make any business sense to them, or they aren't even around anymore, you can't always just replace that component. I predict that many years from now, there will still be a huge portion of the ARS base that is stuck on ARS 8.0. Or worse yet, it will become a tipping point for people leaving the platform all together. IMHO, this is why Microsoft still supports DDE today. Same reason that COBOL still exists.

Re: Future of OLE/DDE integrations?
Hi All, Same reason that COBOL still exists. In my opinion BMC is cutting costs at all costs. For example BMC decided to move European support to Asia. I am not a racist but I am deeply disappointed when I submitted a new ticket and support came from Asia instead England. My English is the second language I have a lot of problems understanding the singing English coming from Asia. Following the idea of cutting costs BMC decided to pass the know how to a third party. Consequently how will have to use BMC-Remedy user tool will have to pay. Recently some secret garbage was put in production. As a result of this improvements users that connects to ARS using Mid-Tier, sporadically, experience errors ( ARERR 90 91). The same users experience NO problems if they use BMC-Remedy user tool. In my opinion BMC decision to drop BMC-Remedy user tool, ARODBC, OLE and DEE is a bad idea. A good idea is to develop BMC-Remedy user tool as clickonce application Best regards, Daniel Condrea -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Francois Seegers Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 8:13 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Future of OLE/DDE integrations?
