Re: Filter Plugin
Solved!! The problem was in some spaces at the pluginsvr_config.xml at the folder definition of the jar files. Those space were in the original documentation, and the author (Yudi Maryanto) directly tell me where was the typo https://communities.bmc.com/communities/message/258870#258870 But, I also learned how to debug the definition of a new plugin, because I was trying to see the error on arplugin.log file, and that isn't the place where the logs are. Thanks you all, because without you I would surely spend a lot of hours looking for how to debug the error. Also, I'm creating a display only form with a service structure, so it will be easy to use the call. As soon as I'll get it running I will post it, with the def file.

IBRSD and Multiple BEM servers
Hi List, We've an instance of IBRSD on our ITSM 7.6.03 server. Can this instance be configured to integrate with multiple BEM servers? Multiple BEM servers will raise incidents with ITSM. And ITSM has to respond back to all the BEM servers. Is this configuration possible to achieve? Thanks in advance, Radhika +44 20718 20262 Think green - keep it on the screen.

Re: IBRSD and Multiple BEM servers
recommend posting to communities, however I believe BEM/SIM can do this multiple ways.. BEM more than one pushed to 1 central server, into the remedy system/ OR configure multiple IBRSD connections.

Re: removing attachments
Hi, Maybe a simple Modify-ALL where you set the slots to NULL? Or an ACTL-Push-Fields where you set the fields to $NULL$. Or an ESCL that runs every now and then ans just makes a simple Set-Fields: attachslot1 = $NULL$ on old records.

Re: removing attachments
Marcelo, I have two solutions that come to mind 1 - Export affected records to ARX with the request ID and the attachment field, update the ARX to not have an attachment defined, and re-import the arx, this should effectively eliminate the attachments from those records 2 - Programmatically (Java API maybe) take a list of request id's and set the attachment field to null -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Martinez, Marcelo A Sent: Monday, August 06, 2012 8:39 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: removing attachments ** I have a request from one of our IT teams to remove attachments from a large number of incident tickets (I'm sure you can imagine why...).

Skip Navigation Question
All Our customer wants to build in skip navigation into customer facing forms to meet 508 compliance requirements. I've looked on-line and in documentation but I'm finding references on how to do this in Remedy. If anyone has a thought or idea on how to build in skip navigation I would be grateful.

Re: Skip Navigation Question
We played with this a while back. One of the solutions we played with, we called a Jump Menu, and was as follows: Make the first field in your form a drop down menu field that can be called with the arrow keys. It's important that it be the first field, because the keyboard shortcut for Home (Shift-Ctrl-Home) will always take the user back to this field. Each value in the drop-down menu corresponds with a section on your form. So if the first value in the menu was Assignment, then there would be an Assignment section on the form. Head that section up with a character field displayed as text. When the section is picked from the drop down, set focus to the section heading. The fact that you created the heading as a character field displayed as text will allow a typical support screen reader like JAWS to read the heading back to the user for verification (screen readers have difficulty reading trim text). That was the base design. We even went a few steps further and added required fields within sections as a menu choice and we provided the capability for people to add custom jump points to the Jump Menu. And not really tied to skip navigation, but it's VERY important for 508 to have your tabbing order be very clean and concise.

Re: Caught Exception Object Expected - 7.6.04 Mid-tier
I have had the user log into both web servers directly. She gets the error on either one of my web servers. I have asked the network engineer to clear the connections on the ACE load balancer and that didn't help. I even upgraded my development mid-tier with the hot-fix, pointed it at the Production server group, and logged in as the user and still got the error I even got a new cached ID, but I still get the error. I am thinking that something is corrupt with her profile after our last DDM. We used the same servers during UAT and she had no issues. After we cut over the staging servers to be production, we restored our UAT environment with a backup from production prior to UAT. Then we did a final DDM to bring over the Deltas. After that, we cut over the DNS alias for the server group name (VIP) and then reconfigured the servers. After that, we started getting the errors. Something tells me that there is an issue with the DDM that corrupted the data.

Re: OT: ARSLIST Signal-to-noise ratio
Hi Doug, First, Before beginning exposing my opinion, I want to state that the arslist is the most value Remedy resource for me at this time. Also, that the next is only my opinion and a constructive critic. I'm new to this community and I will try to do my best to follow the rules. Said this, I think that maybe Arslist is not on the best communication format available for sharing the knowledge. A community of 50 or 100 experts can be hold as an email group, but when the numbers go higher I think that web-based forums fit better for the purpose. Arslist is based on mail, and people apply on ARS list what they normally apply for the email. Than means the use of sophisticated signatures and include the complete reply of the previous email. You can teach people to not to do it, but it will last for a few days. This especially applies when people share their normal email account in ARSlist. I allways try to delete my corporate signature by my name and the address of my blog. But, sometimes I forget to do it, and the signature is sent. I will try to not to send it, but I surely know that sometimes I will forget and I will send it. About not including the reply: modern email software (Thunderbird, outlook, main web based like gmail, ...) organizes the emails in conversations, hiding the replied content. If you erase the copy of the original message, these software tend to fail identifying the conversation, disorganizing the mails. For me this is the highest SNR possible, since all conversations are messed. I know that this is a high load for ARSlist servers. Again it is difficult to train ARSlist users to not to do it, since they will have their email clients programmed to include the reply, because it is expected normally at e-mailing. Also, the use of formatted HTML text had became the standard nowadays. I can't change the configuration of my email client for each email. And this will surely apply for the most of the users. As I see the problem, the standard use of the e-mail is not well suited for the ARSlist, so I consider a mistake to use e-mail as the communication interface. Maybe it's time to consider moving to an independent forum. Also called ARSlist and managed by the same people who is managing ARSlist. The advantages of a forum are countless. Starting from the ability to moderate the conversations, create sticky content and organize the conversations in themes. Someone can tell: You are describing the BMC communities, ARSlist is different. No, ARSlist isn't about the communication interface, but about it's independence and people conforming it. Why do I have a independent blog when I can create it on BMC communities? Because I maintain myself independent and free. Again, please I try to help with my comment. I say it with my best intention, and I'm not trying to feed the troll. Don't matter the format ARSlist uses, I will continue to read it.
