Re: FTS Plugin issues in 7.6.04
Hi Nathan, Could you give us some examples of the additional errors as that could make all the difference? In my recent install of 7.6.4 SP2 I noticed that the FTS plugin lines of ar.cfg contained the fully qualified host name and this didn't work for me when I moved my laptop from home to my mobile connection. I fixed the name and restarted and all was good again.

Re: FTS Plugin issues in 7.6.04
One of the things we did to minimize the sheer load on FTS during an initial search was to customize the search on open from an incident. SO when users click Search Knowledge, we limited the default search to just look at Knowledge articles. By default, ALL sources are checked such as Incidents/Changes/Problems/Tasks/etc... This increased time and load on the FTS.

Re: FTS Plugin issues in 7.6.04
Seems like there are several issues with this feature. We could not even get it to work it on 7.6.03. Without server group it seem to work, once enabled servergroup it starts crashing while failing over to other server in the servergroup. Went through several iterations with BMC it did not help any further so we went live without it. I assume the product has been passed through testing before making GA. Seems like there is a gap between BMC lab systems/configurations and real world.

The problem is the RKM product is now solely dependent on a working FTS. All the searches for RKM are done using the FTS plugin.

Re: Which sp of 7.6.4 is most stable?
Hi! I should add that I was on 7.6.04sp1 for rather long time, and it turned out recently, that in sp1 you can't make a copy of the regular form (display-only is ok) using Save As function in Developer Studio. It's the known defect, which was marked as fixed in SP2 and associated with the Developer Studio. Sure just patching the Clients, including Developer Studio didn't help, and afterall I patched the ARS with SP3 (no ITSM applications, just ARS). Now everything looks ok, and I can create copies of my regular forms. Hope this helps a little bit.
