Transfer data from Tasks in Change Management
Hi ARS-LIST, We have some very large task flows, containing tasks and task groups, which should hopefully be able to use the same variables. For example, we have a flow in a task group, There are two task to begin with, Then there are 18 task groups with their own shorter flows inside. What we want is to send data from the first tasks outside the 18 task groups, and recieve this data in the tasks that are inside the 18 task groups using a Variable. I've looked at the possibility of using a global variable, but is not limited enough, and local variables can apparently not be used between task outside and within a task group. My question is: 1) Is there any way the value of a variable defined outside a task group can be accessed from one task within a task group? 2) Is there a way to increase a variable context to be larger than just task groups, for instance so that the context is the entire Change? Thanks in advance. Kind regards Mr. Tee ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are

Re: ARS Tomcat Slowdowns are Crippling Us......HELP !
One more thing to try is to have a limit on you users' requests. All the tuning in the world will not help if you are letting your users run amok in the system. The same thing happened to us with Tomcat killing our server and causing daily crashes. When I got to this job, there were no restriction on server things. The culprits were the lack of restrictions on Max entries Returned by Getlist and Allow Unqualified Search was set. Here's what you want to look at : - You need to go to AR System Administration\Server Information \Configuration - Make Sure that Max Entries Returned by Getlist is not 0. I set it to 1 and that seems to work fine. Any less that that will cause AR system to become unstable. - Uncheck Allow Unqualified Searches if it is checked. - Enable Persistent Cache on your Mid-Tier Configuration tool. This helps keep memory utilization lower by having Tomcat go to the Cache instead of the DB every time a form is called. If you you don't take care of these issues what will happen is that a user can do a full scan query on a form and that causes a huge chunk of your available Tomcat Memory to be taken up by the Getlist call (method). Sometimes the memory is not returned due to no caching or a memory leak. If you restrict your users, you will not be using up as much Tomcat memory. I tried to tune my garbage collection and this helped a lot. But in the end the mid-tier would crash with an java out of memory error. I turned on Thread logging (also in AR system Admin) and whenever I saw a crash I could find the query that crashed Tomcat. Thread logging should show you how big the chunk is that is getting called. I hope this helps, Jesus Ortega ITSM Technologist LyondellBasell Industries Office: 713 309-4914 Cell:281 546-0735 From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Rick Sharp Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2011 8:56 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: ARS Tomcat Slowdowns are Crippling Us..HELP ! ** Hi All We have a new ARS 7.604 instance with incredible slow MidTier performance every 3 days.

Re: Cyclical Plugin Errors

Re: User profile issue.
You have to set that specific SRD to Offline and go to the Entitlements tab to see how the entitlement is configured. You would then need to add the other company in. If they used exclusion groups or you want to mess with the entitlements themselves, you would need to go into the App Admin Console, Custom tab, Service Request Management, and then go to Entitlement management section.
