Re: 6-8 project - Remote
Hi Folks! Just had to re-open this thread...

Re: Dev Studio 7.6.04 - Can't update join criteria
Well Thad, you have yourself in a pretty ugly little pickle there. At a minimum you have found a documentation bug, because I never noticed the 'can do' of Join qualification...but looking back, I see that you are 100% correct, it states the same thing in both the Can and Cannot do sections...I would open a bug with BMC on that certainly. You certainly only have one option at this point, which is to create your field in base mode, then update the join in base as well...but neither of them 'should' need to be done that wayso a contact to BMC is certainly in play at this point. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Thad Esser Sent: Friday, September 21, 2012 2:21 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Dev Studio 7.6.04 - Can't update join criteria ** I have a follow up question to make sure I understand this. To recap: - I've added a field to APR:Approver Lookup (creating an overlay), and want to use that field as part of the join criteria in a join form (SRS:RequestApproversLookup). - The system doesn't allow join criteria on overlays to be edited, so I am forced to edit the join in Base mode. - In order to use the field in the join criteria, I need to add it the join form. The issue: - The new field on APR:Approver Lookup is not in the list of fields that can be added to the join form (when in Base Development mode.) - It IS on the list if I switch to Best Practice mode. Therefore (???): - The field on the underlying form needs to be added in Base Development mode Is that true? This small customization is getting me farther away from following best practices and I want to make sure I don't deviate any more than necessary. Thanks, Thad P.S.

AIE Targetsql stmt with variables ERR -- Data type undefined
This seems like it should be very easy, but I can't get it working. I am using AIE from CMDB 7.6.4 SP2 to feed in People data. I am trying to use the Targetsql statement to for lookups and mapping data values. For example, I need to set the manager login id for an employee, but all I have is their name, so I use the following: Targetsql | select Login_ID from CTM_People where Profile_Status = 'Enabled' and Full_Name = $Supervisor$ From the AIE user guide, this should put the current value for $Supervisor$ in place and then run the query. Instead, what I get is: [Mon Sep 10 2012 13:34:41.9660] - TID: 001 ERR*** Field Mapping Error for Targetsql | select Login_ID from CTM_People where Profile_Status = 'Enabled' and Full_Name = $Supervisor$ [Mon Sep 10 2012 13:34:41.9660] - TID: 001 ERR-- Data type undefined I have also tried '$Supervisor$' with the same result. Is there some other delimiter I should be using, or do I need to be \ing something? Anyone that has successfully passed variables into an AIE Targetsql statement, please let me know the recipe.

Re: Remedy 8 in Production
Humor on my part because today was the announcement (delayed) by David earlier today, with it actually being released on Friday. I unfortunately wasn't part of the Beta this time around so I had no inside knowledge of what was happening any more than anyone else. I'm personally excited about being able to try out some of the features I read about this morning. I, along with others I'm sure, am very happy that BMC is taking a stance of ensuring things are working 'as advertised' before advertisements start...there have been a number of rocky releases over the years that at times make you wonder if a particular feature was even tested before it went out the door, so a greater focus on testing and reliability will always be a hit with this crowd.

Re: Remedy Mid-Tier on SSL
It's pretty simple, just follow your web server's steps for installing the cert file and configuring the web server for SSL. You will of course have to obtain an SSL certificate for your server. There's nothing that has to be done beyond that in the Mid-Tier, it's all related to the web server config.

WWRUG12 - Breaks All Records! (And the confidence a Remedy Rockstar tattoo provides)
So I can tell you with confidence that we have the Greatest number of sessions EVER at a WWRUG event since we started putting it on in '09 (over 100 Breakout Sessions this year and we had to add another room to our normal schedule of five rooms every day). We have (according to my sources) the highest number of registrations to date this year for any WWRUG we have ever put on for you (and we still have 20 days to go)! Plus (S)...I just re-ordered 1000 of the Remedy Rockstar tattoos made famous by all of you at our Celebration in '10. Perhaps I should give you a few key reasons to attend WWRUG12 this year (In no particular order - Credit: Doug Mueller): 10. The Greatest Number of Breakout Sessions to date for a WWRUG event. (http://www.wwrug12.com/breakouts.html) 9. Renewed Vigor for Evening with Engineering (No one leaves until all questions are addressed - including Darius and Doug - note: alcohol may be involved) 8. Access to BMC Engineers, Product Managers, and Technical folks (at least three folks from Support are going to be there and one of them, Carin Sinclair, is going to present on how to get the most out of your support calls by leveraging logs etc.) 7. You get to see all of our Sponsors and visit their booths to see/touch/test drive some really cool new/updated tools/apps including the centrally located BMC booth! (http://www.wwrug12.com/sponsors.html) 6. Entertainment - We are brining back The Brew this year (http://www.brewmusic.com/) - but they will be doing two Smooth Jazz sets for us this year, plus our very own Remedy Rockstar band including guest appearances by some of our own Remedy crowd (you will just have to come to find out who!). 5. You get to see the new tattoo we have created for this year's conference (plus we will have some more Remedy Rockstar tattoos for when you are out strolling the streets at night in your Hawaiian shirt - make sure you roll up your sleeves to reveal your ink, Theresa...) 4. Great food (trust me we have tried it!) 3. Lots of nearby activities, restaurants, shopping, etc. (https://maps.google.com/maps?f=qsource=s_qhl=engeocode=CQSsqW8jx6h4FeqnOQIdVB68-CknFWMju8yPgDE9hgdwL7bS-gq=restaurants,+loc:+The+Fairmont+San+Jose+Hotel,+170+South+Market+Street,+San+Jose,+CA+95113aq=sll=37.332631,-121.04sspn=0.010988,0.026071vpsrc=0t=hie=UTF8hq=restaurants,hnear=ll=37.332972,-121.888976spn=0.010988,0.026071z=16) 2.

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: functional role question
I don’t know who sabrown is but kudos to him or her for this neat little utility. I created an Access db with this info, but I didn’t have time to make it really slick, so I end up having to page through ALL the functional roles and permissions until I find the one I need. (Luckily I generally at least know whether what I need is permission or functional role!) This is cool because you punch in what behavior you need and it tells you what permission or functional role gives that. However, one potential ‘gotcha’ I see with this is when a functional role or permission provides multiple app behaviors and you’re okay with users getting one behavior but not the other – if I pick Add or Remove Support Staff from Support Groups, for instance, I don’t see something cueing me that Support Group Admin also gives Access to Modify Incident Templates. At least with permissions, I think ITSM lets you see everything the permission lets a user do at the time you go to add it, but I don’t remember offhand whether it shows the equivalent info with functional roles. In the end, it still boils down to the need to really know both the permissions and the functional roles. – what they do and how willing you are to take on the headaches associated with whatever problems your users create for themselves using their shiny new privileges!

fyi on work-info update from xx to 7.6.x
Hey all, FYI for anyone upgrading to 7.6.04 The upgrade process nor DDM will catch work-info notes where detailed description (notes) is null. In our case many users made work-info notes and just typed a quick summary and nothing in the notes (detailed description). In 7.6.04 BMC only use detailed description and do a left 100 char to insert into description (summary) for new entries. Well that doesn't help those existing entries where user has not entered work-info detailed description and therefore the work-info tables show a null line. We had to issue a sql update to fix: update HPD_WorkLog set Detailed_Description = Description where Detailed_Description is null; update PBM_Investigation_WorkLog set Detailed_Description = Description where Detailed_Description is null; update CHG_WorkLog set Detailed_Description = Description where Detailed_Description is null; update WOI_WorkInfo set Detailed_Description = Description where Detailed_Description is null; Regards, Andrew C.

Re: Remedy Mid-Tier on SSL
Where you make the change all depends on your software stack. Are you using a web server? Which one? If not, what J2EE container are you using? Are you using a load balancer? The SSL configuration is typically done at the endpoint that the user agent connects to. This could be the load balancer, if you use one; it could be the web server, if you use one; or it could be the J2EE container. There have been a number of conversations around how to do something with the web tier, but very little information about the software/hardware stack in use. The implementation specifics depend on what you are using. Best suggestion for everyone on the list who wants to know how to do X with the web configuration (context path, ssl, etc.) is to outline your software/hardware stack as it pertains to the web tier.
