ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues

2012-11-01 Thread Vikrant
hi Everyone,

We are facing some issues in crystal report for one of our client. The crystal 
report is a call details report with about 30 fields in it which included about 
10 formula fields.

The issue we are facing is that it takes a lot of time to extract a single 
report and at a time we can only extract report for a time span of 30 days if 
we increase the time span it just gets stuck and we get nothing the user tool 
just gets stuck.

The application is a complete custom application and we are not using anything 
OOTB apart from foundation part(people form, user form etc). 
The AR architecture is such that we have only 1 application server (ARS 7.6.0.4 
SP2) which is our reporting server as well. Then we have a remote SQL 2008 DB 
and a stand alone MT ARS 7.6.0.4. 

The configurations of the above servers is as below

ARS/Reporting Server = 32GB RAM 100Gb HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
SQL or DB server = 16GB RAM 500GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
MT Server = 16GB RAM 100GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.

Now there are few things that we plan to configure to improve performance on 
the system and would like some opinion on the same from you guys so as to what 
more can be done on the same.

Things we plan to do :
 
1) Threads and queues to be configured : Gradually increase the number of 
threads from the default value (not sure about the number)
2) Indexes : To set 6-7 fields as indexes on the form on which the reports runs.
3) Disable unwanted escalation : Don't know if this will help but will try to 
disable most of the unwanted OOTB escalations which we do not use.
4) MT JVM memory check : Its already set to max = 1024 MB not sure how much can 
we increase it more.
5) Check for DB side configuration : This is something new we are trying to 
find out things that we can configure on DB side to get better performance.

Also we think this all infrastructure being on cloud would make a difference as 
well am I right?

Thanks in advance for the replies.

Regards,
Vikrant

The issue could be at two levels.
a) How much time database takes to complete the execution of SQLs?
It depends on how complex your queries and how much data you are 
running these queries on.
You may improve this timing by getting the raw sqls for your report 
calculations and do a cost analysis and creating respective indexes. 
Sometimes even though you have indexed fields the db may think 
differently and may not make use of the indexed fields.
Rerunning the database stats could help here. Also DBAs can do some 
settings to force database to use a different plan than the default one.
This all depends on how your cost analysis of the sqls look like. 

b) How much data being generated in the results set and the amount of time 
it takes to transfer that data into client machine?
Infrastructure on cloud will definitely makes a difference here. 
Specifically for reports. Basically the more further you are, the more 
network latency and hence  the more the time it takes to render the reports 
with more data.

Apart from above, I would suggest:

1. Use a private thread to run these reports. That way you would not impact 
regular users. Especially when your production system is also the reporting 
system. You can specify the private threads on your ODBC settings.
2. If the formulas are really complicated and they are the bottleneck even 
after creating indexes, instead of doing all those calculations at run 
time, run cronjobs/escalations/etl jobs to pre-calculate the formulas 
and populate the results into summarized tables.
And use those tables for your reporting purpose.
3. Check your ARServer, DB Server memory and temp space size to make sure 
you are not breaching the limits.

Since you mentioned you saw this happening even with user tool, increasing 
the midtier JVM does not help you here.
Working closely with the DBAs would fetch you a lot for these kind of 
issues.

Re: WWRUG12 - Session Question - Database Moving

2012-11-01 Thread patchsk
With Unix it is easy, you can just do a find command on IP or hostname in 
remedy folders  to find all the references and make changes accordingly.
But with windows not sure if the same approach will work with registries 
etc..
In either case I would suggest once your admins copy the VMs just 
remove/uninstall all remedy components/folders and just reinstall those 
again as a server group option.
That way you would not miss any conf  file or registry server name 
references.
Since you are not really doing any upgrade install, just reinstalling same 
version the installer should not take much time. May be couple of hrs for 
the entire ITSM suite.


Not sure how much it would help you the following.
We had to rollout new ITSM env few years ago and we had to copy the db from 
preprod to prod during the cutover.
So I went through several postings in arslist,bmc support site, bmc 
communities and made a list of items to do before and after.
Some of the steps might be outdated or may not valid  depending on the 
specific version so take it with grain of salt.


Restore db from Development to Production:
Pre db copy:
1. In production servers disable email engine,escalations in ar.conf
2. In dev server disable email mail boxes
3. Delete all pending or unwanted email entries

Post db copy:
1. Update the default web path
2. Update Servername, Servergroupname, servergroup ranking entries
3. Form data changes: 
-- Report form entries with new Server Name -- change server name to 
development.fqdn or development
-- SHARE:Application_Properties, HelpFile URL pointers
-- SYS:Application form -- Survey URL
-- CAI Application Registry   -- In Connection tab, change all Server 
names from production.fqdn to development.fqdn
-- SHR:Association -- The server name is stored in two fields on the form 
- Server 1 and Server 2
-- Configure Custom Form Info
-- SYS:Attachments form
-- CMS Configuration Management
-- AP:Notifications - Check any custom notifications with Server links
-- AP:Rule Definition (Server = @)
-- AR System Server Group Operation Ranking
-- AR System User Preferences -- Change Report Server values from 
production to development for any user account you are going to  log in 
with on development 
-- AR System Administrator Preferences -- Partial List Settings - Partial 
List Details:Other - Pack List Settings 
-- AR System Searches Preference -- Delete records from original server 
-- AR System User Central File --   Delete records for user 
-- KMS:Administration_Integration-- Change Server Name and Short 
Description
-- SRD:STAGE:MasterDataMappingList
-- SRM:ApplicationSettings, if SRM installed, to point to correct web path
-- AST:ARServerConnection -- AR Login Info
-- AST:ComplianceARBased_Advanced--AR System License Type Compliance
-- SYS:Escalations
-- SYS:Attachments
-- SLM:ConfigPreferences -- Update Dashboard MidTier URL
-- SLM:RuleActionSetValue_base -- Found four records to change with 
SLA_destination Server Name = production.fqdn,Changed all of them to @
-- SLA data sources, service agreements, and service targets with 
milestones, after the db had been restored
-- CHG:CCMCalendar:PrintActionWUT -- Active Links that contain server 
references
-- AREmail Configuration -- update with production email accounts
-- Table fields -- check with sql select distinct tfserver from field_table
   -- AIS:GlobalPreferences form (Atrium Impact Simulator)
-- AIE  EIE:ApplicationSettings form (field name: Help File Path)
-- AIE  EIE:BackUpLoadFlag form entries (field names: Host, Internal 
Instance Name,InstanceName)
-- AIE  EIE:DataExchange form entries (field names: Instance Name, 
zTmpInstanceAlias)
-- BMC.CORE.CONFIG:BMC_FederatedInterface records (Field name: 
 ARServerName)
-- IEORA:RuleHelper (field name: Path)
-- EIE:CommonDialog (Help File Path)
-- Reinstall and Reconfigure AIE and all Data Exchanges
-- Check in remedy metadata(AL,FL tables) to see any hard code server 
references. 
4.The mid-tier configuration, where you specify the Data  Visualization 
server
5.If you have customised any of the OOB notification messages to include a 
hardcoded a url then you need to change the server name reference.
6. Make sure all the integrations (webservices,scripts,apis,dblinks) 
pointing to correct environments.
7.Enable email engine,escalations.

To answer your question, yes if the changes are form/client side workflow
related.
 However, why do you have 2 load balancers in front of the 2 mid tiers?

Assuming two ARS Servers are  sharing single database
if you make any client side code change (Form/Menu/AL/Groups etc) yes you 
need to flush cache on all the midtiers.
if you just made server side code change(Esc,FL) then no flush to midtier 
is needed.

Re: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues

2012-11-01 Thread Rackley, James
From a strictly database viewpoint...

1. If you need the report often, the I would create a view in your database and 
have your report access that.  Do all of your computations in the view.

2. If you only need the data once per month or so, I would create a stored 
procedure that does all of the calculations and call that from your report.

In short, I would not use Crystal or AR to do the calculations.

Re: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues

2012-11-01 Thread Rod Harris
Hi Vikrant,

It doesn't really sound like your report should be taking too long to run.
There may be some kind of design issue or fault somewhere.Most of the
issues you outline can only really have marginal improvements.

One common issue when using crystal is that you cannot really use the
Remedy ODBC driver to do joins. In practice doing a join within the crystal
report involves the application server doing a large number of individual
queries and the overhead is massive. If you need to join 2 or more tables
together then you should use a Remedy ARS join to do it and report against
the join. Subreports work well when using the Remedy ODBC driver. Each
subreport is effectively another query to ARS. Subreports give you a handy
option to have a query defined from within Crystal itself.


Perhaps if you give us a bit more information on the query and formulas you
are having trouble with along with some rough row counts we may be able to
help more.

Rod

Mid Tier and Potential Proxy Issues

2012-11-01 Thread Pierson, Shawn
Good morning,

For the past two weeks, we've seen issues within a specific subset of the users 
accessing the Mid Tier.  Basically what happens is that they log in to Remedy 
(we have SSO so they don't actually log in), sometimes they can see the Home 
Page, sometimes they can't.  Other times it's an issue opening a specific form, 
where you can see the framework of the landing page, but just a big grey area 
in the middle where an Incident or Change Request or Contract should be.  This 
happens randomly, but I have suspicions about what causes it.

Firstly, it is limited to Internet Explorer.  Since we are in the process of 
upgrading to Windows 7 from XP, I've seen it happen regardless of what version 
of IE.  It never happens in Firefox or Chrome, although they have their own 
issues rendering things sometimes.  As I mentioned, there is a specific subset 
of the users that it is happening to, and unfortunately those users are people 
that I am not able to remote control their PCs to see what is going on.

Secondly, I've been told through the grapevine that those users are being set 
up to have a proxy server, using Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway. 
 Again, this is something I can't verify right now since the users I am dealing 
with aren't really willing to work with me or give me access to their machines. 
 I have an idea of how I can verify whether this is or isn't the case though.

Given this background, the reason I contacted the ARSList is to see if anyone 
has had similar issues to what my users are experiencing, and if so how to 
resolve it.  Also, if you haven't experienced these types of issues what steps 
would you use to troubleshoot them, whether or not you had access to their PCs? 
 I'm assuming I will be able to get access to one of their computers so I will 
check their proxy settings as well as perform a traceroute, but is there 
anything else I should look for?

Thanks,

Hi Kali,

That does appear to be an issue with the import tool. I guess one thing you
could do is convert the lowercase n to upper. I'm assuming you are on
Windows and the file path is therefore not case sensitive.

 We need to update a field via the Remedy Data Import Tool (v7.6.03).
 However the field values contain file paths and what happens is if the

Re: SRM - Issue with Draft Records (ARERR-150)

2012-11-01 Thread itsm.support
Hi,

There can be a situation such as some customized macro is running while
opening SR in draft mode which needs login info (Server name). While
searching for resolution of this issue I got this work around. So please
check that is this useful ?

Regarding ARERR 150 - A server name must be supplied in the control record. 

 The server field of the ARControlStruct parameter is empty. Supply the
name of the server to reference in this field.

Solution

ARERR150 indicates that a server name reference that is required is missing.

You  may have recorded a macro and when recording it you had the prompt for
log in turned on in the User Tool (In server info. -System - General -
Server Information - Configuration tab ). Now when you run the macro it is
looking for a server name and one is not supplied in the config file, or
there was a config/utconfig file referenced, however that file is  either no
longer available or does not have a server name present.

To  solve this problem, you can either re-record the macro and include a
login action, or with Prompt for login turned off log into the user  tool
to create a new config/utconfig file with appropriate information.  The
Prompt for Login option can also be constrained by a server  setting which
can be adjusted in Remedy Administrator. Make sure the  server is configured
to handle the Prompt for login situation By  Preference -- then you will
be able to properly configure the user  tool.

HTH

CRQ Implementer group.

2012-11-01 Thread Peters, Ron
We're on AR 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 and we're using the system mostly OOTB. I just ran 
into an oddity. When creating a CRQ, the 'implementer group' is being auto 
populated by a support group that has nothing to do with the CRQ or the 
submitter. On the CRQ itself, there's no field/ability to set/change the 
implementer group but on the approval screen, the field is there and displays 
the unrelated group. All of our CRQ's have the same implementer group assigned.

Any idea where this is configured and why it's being set in this way?

 1. Task Viewer feature is not supported with MS Internet Explorer 8. Also,

 2. ITSM UI performance is slower for MS Internet Explorer 8 than for later
 versions of MS Internet Explorer

 Have anyone installed ITSM 8.0 and using IE 8 as browser, can let me know

 1. About the UI performance? and

 2. Is their any updates available in IE 8 that i can use to improve the UI
 performance.?

 we are in process for gathering requirments to upgrade to 8.0 currently we
 are using the IE 8.0.7601.17514

 Thanks
 Ravi

Re: CRQ Implementer group.

2012-11-01 Thread Pierson, Shawn
This is most likely due to an assignment mapping.  While the fields aren't 
visible in the Best Practices view, they are visible in the older version of 
the Change Management form.  I don't recall what I had to do to fix this, but I 
believe it involved changing the mappings so that the same groups get assigned 
as the Change Coordinator and the Change Implementer.

Thanks,

Subject: CRQ Implementer group.

**
We're on AR 7.5 and ITSM 7.6 and we're using the system mostly OOTB. I just ran 
into an oddity. When creating a CRQ, the 'implementer group' is being auto 
populated by a support group that has nothing to do with the CRQ or the 
submitter. On the CRQ itself, there's no field/ability to set/change the 
implementer group but on the approval screen, the field is there and displays 
the unrelated group. All of our CRQ's have the same implementer group assigned.

Any idea where this is configured and why it's being set in this way?

Re: [EXTERNAL] CRQ Implementer group.

2012-11-01 Thread Stroud, Natalie K
I believe that happens due to the Assignment Rules.  If you have an AR with an 
Event of -General- and that assignment rule is turned on for Change Management, 
it assigns the specified Support Group as the Implementer Group, which as Shawn 
indicated, is visible only on the Classic view.

 hi Everyone,
 
 We are facing some issues in crystal report for one of our client. The 
 crystal report is a call details report with about 30 fields in it which 
 included about 10 formula fields.
 
 The issue we are facing is that it takes a lot of time to extract a single 
 report and at a time we can only extract report for a time span of 30 days if 
 we increase the time span it just gets stuck and we get nothing the user tool 
 just gets stuck.
 
 The application is a complete custom application and we are not using 
 anything OOTB apart from foundation part(people form, user form etc). 
 The AR architecture is such that we have only 1 application server (ARS 
 7.6.0.4 SP2) which is our reporting server as well. Then we have a remote SQL 
 2008 DB and a stand alone MT ARS 7.6.0.4. 
 
 The configurations of the above servers is as below
 
 ARS/Reporting Server = 32GB RAM 100Gb HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 SQL or DB server = 16GB RAM 500GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 MT Server = 16GB RAM 100GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 
 Now there are few things that we plan to configure to improve performance on 
 the system and would like some opinion on the same from you guys so as to 
 what more can be done on the same.
 
 Things we plan to do :
  
 1) Threads and queues to be configured : Gradually increase the number of 
 threads from the default value (not sure about the number)
 2) Indexes : To set 6-7 fields as indexes on the form on which the reports 
 runs.
 3) Disable unwanted escalation : Don't know if this will help but will try to 
 disable most of the unwanted OOTB escalations which we do not use.
 4) MT JVM memory check : Its already set to max = 1024 MB not sure how much 
 can we increase it more.
 5) Check for DB side configuration : This is something new we are trying to 
 find out things that we can configure on DB side to get better performance.
 
 Also we think this all infrastructure being on cloud would make a difference 
 as well am I right?
 
 Thanks in advance for the replies.
 
 Regards,
 Vikrant

Re: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues

2012-11-01 Thread Easter, David
Ø  Setting a remote DB is not recommended for ARS setup.

That is not an accurate statement as it is phrased.  The vast majority of our 
customers install AR System server on a different machine then where their 
database is running - and that is the recommended configuration.

If you meant something different, you may wish to rephrase for accuracy.

2012-11-01 Thread Stroud, Natalie K
I'm not sure offhand whether 7.1 is supposed to work with the User Tool 
(client).  I know 7.6 is mid-tier only.

And the User Tool does create a cache that occasionally gets corrupted by 
changes developers make on the servers.  I've seen all sorts of odd behavior 
from that.  Have you had the user who has this problem try logging in via the 
client on a different machine?  If they don't have the problem there, you can 
try clearing the User Tool's cache on the affected machine.

Where you go to look for the User Tool's cache depends on what operating system 
your computer has and what version of the User Tool you're running, but the 
location is usually the home directory associated with the installation of the 
User Tool (where the arcmds folder is located)  Log out of Remedy, delete all 
folders in the home directory except for arcmds and NONE of the individual 
files, then have them log in and try again.

Good luck!

Re: HP UX: Upgrading install Oracle failed to connect the database.

2012-11-01 Thread Sandeep Pandey
Hi Patrick,

Sorrywent for vacation.

Still the same issue we are facing today Failed to connect database and
in installer log we found following line.
 LOG EVENT {Description=[SET PROPERTY
VALIDATION_ERROR_RESULT],Detail=INVALID_OCI_ORACLE_CONNECTION_UNIX]}

We tried to fix by all possibilities from our side but no luck. Seems
something is missing still some where.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is pointing now to the 64bit.

I am able to do sqlplus and tnsping as well. Please suggest.

 if those are working -- off the 64bit side.. then you should be fine..
 but if you LD_LIBRARY_PATH is pointing to the 32bit, first, and not
 the 64bit first..
 and you cannot use the sqlplus from the 11..  this is a great start

I’m not sure offhand whether 7.1 is supposed to work with the User Tool 
(client).  I know 7.6 is mid-tier only.
 
And the User Tool does create a cache that occasionally gets corrupted by 
changes developers make on the servers.  I’ve seen all sorts of odd 
behavior from that.  Have you had the user who has this problem try 
logging in via the client on a different machine?  If they don’t have the 
problem there, you can try clearing the User Tool’s cache on the affected 
machine. 
 
Where you go to look for the User Tool’s cache depends on what operating 
system your computer has and what version of the User Tool you’re running, 
but the location is usually the home directory associated with the 
installation of the User Tool (where the arcmds folder is located)  Log 
out of Remedy, delete all folders in the home directory except for arcmds 
and NONE of the individual files, then have them log in and try again. 
 
Good luck!

Just a thought - are users logging into the Preference Server?  (I don't recall 
if that's relevant to 7.1.)If so, how about removing or renaming their 
entry in the AR System User Preference form to see if it helps, since this is

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Work info in task

2012-11-01 Thread Stroud, Natalie K
Rajesh:

No, you do not need to change your client version right now.

I'm having a little trouble understanding your English, but I will try to 
explain better.

Can you have your consultant log in via the 7.5 client on a different computer 
and try viewing the task?  When you log in on your computer and it works for 
you, that is one test and it is a good one to start with.  However, that cannot 
tell us if the problem is with your consultant's computer.   So if you have the 
consultant log in via the 7.5 client on a different computer, we can see if the 
problem happens ONLY on their computer.

You can also try deleting your consultant's Preference file like David 
suggested.

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Work info in task






**
I'm not sure offhand whether 7.1 is supposed to work with the User Tool
(client).  I know 7.6 is mid-tier only.

And the User Tool does create a cache that occasionally gets corrupted by
changes developers make on the servers.  I've seen all sorts of odd
behavior from that.  Have you had the user who has this problem try
logging in via the client on a different machine?  If they don't have the
problem there, you can try clearing the User Tool's cache on the affected
machine.

Where you go to look for the User Tool's cache depends on what operating
system your computer has and what version of the User Tool you're running,
but the location is usually the home directory associated with the
installation of the User Tool (where the arcmds folder is located)  Log
out of Remedy, delete all folders in the home directory except for arcmds
and NONE of the individual files, then have them log in and try again.

Good luck!

 Just a thought – are users logging into the Preference Server?  (I don’t
 recall if that’s relevant to 7.1.)If so, how about removing or
 renaming their entry in the AR System User Preference form to see if it
 helps, since this is occurring on differenct machines.

Re: HP UX: Upgrading install Oracle failed to connect the database.

When you run the SQLPLUS does it come up and show it is the Oracle 11 version?

If I remember correctly you also need to go in and add a symbolic link in the 
oracle library directory.  To check do the following:   
   #  cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
   #  ls -al libclntsh*

You will see something like:

In your case you probably only have libclntsh.so.11.1.   If so then create

Hi,
You still have runmacro.
You also have a arexport.sh that exports data which uses the artools java

And, if it's not enough, you also have Data Integration (Pentaho

You have mentioned  REMOTE SQL 2008 DB. That might be the cause. Setting a

There are more than 10-12 known issues and defects on reporting for SP1 and SP2 
Using report cause CPU spike, Does not account maxGetList, large report 
generation cause out of memory error, Null pointer exception, downloading

 Subject: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues
 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG
 
 hi Everyone,
 
 We are facing some issues in crystal report for one of our client. The 
 crystal report is a call details report with about 30 fields in it which 
 included about 10 formula fields.
 
 The issue we are facing is that it takes a lot of time to extract a single 
 report and at a time we can only extract report for a time span of 30 days if 
 we increase the time span it just gets stuck and we get nothing the user tool 
 just gets stuck.
 
 The application is a complete custom application and we are not using 
 anything OOTB apart from foundation part(people form, user form etc). 
 The AR architecture is such that we have only 1 application server (ARS 
 7.6.0.4 SP2) which is our reporting server as well. Then we have a remote SQL 
 2008 DB and a stand alone MT ARS 7.6.0.4. 
 
 The configurations of the above servers is as below
 
 ARS/Reporting Server = 32GB RAM 100Gb HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 SQL or DB server = 16GB RAM 500GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 MT Server = 16GB RAM 100GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 
 Now there are few things that we plan to configure to improve performance on 
 the system and would like some opinion on the same from you guys so as to 
 what more can be done on the same.
 
 Things we plan to do :
 
 1) Threads and queues to be configured : Gradually increase the number of 
 threads from the default value (not sure about the number)
 2) Indexes : To set 6-7 fields as indexes on the form on which the reports 
 runs.
 3) Disable unwanted escalation : Don't know if this will help but will try to 
 disable most of the unwanted OOTB escalations which we do not use.
 4) MT JVM memory check : Its already set to max = 1024 MB not sure how much 
 can we increase it more.
 5) Check for DB side configuration : This is something new we are trying to 
 find out things that we can configure on DB side to get better performance.
 
 Also we think this all infrastructure being on cloud would make a difference 
 as well am I right?
 
 Thanks in advance for the replies.
 
 Regards,
 Vikrant

Re: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues

2012-11-01 Thread ravi rai


David,
My point was not to install AR and Db on the same machine 
If ARS amd DB are remote enogh it will cause overhead on network and have 
performance issues, which he is complaining
My interpretation of Remote was may be they are differnet location\Building 
\network causing overhead on Network 
 
vikrant can check and confirm how remote is the DB :)
 
If you run remote database servers, you increase the traffic over your 
network, resulting in slower system performance. In addition, remote
databases consume other operating system resources on the local machines, such 
as memory. Make sure that your network does not
decrease performance if you run a remote database.

That is not an accurate statement as it is phrased.  The vast majority of our 
customers install AR System server on a different machine then where their 
database is running – and that is the recommended configuration. 
 
If you meant something different, you may wish to rephrase for accuracy.

You have mentioned  REMOTE SQL 2008 DB. That might be the cause. Setting a 
remote DB is not recommended for ARS setup.

 

There are more than 10-12 known issues and defects on reporting for SP1 and SP2 

Using report cause CPU spike, Does not account maxGetList, large report 
generation cause out of memory error, Null pointer exception, downloading 
report is very slow etc etc  list is very big. You might want to check the 
Release doc specifically around reports.

 


Thanks

 Subject: ARS 7604 Custom App and Reporting Issues
 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG
 
 hi Everyone,
 
 We are facing some issues in crystal report for one of our client. The 
 crystal report is a call details report with about 30 fields in it which 
 included about 10 formula fields.
 
 The issue we are facing is that it takes a lot of time to extract a single 
 report and at a time we can only extract report for a time span of 30 days if 
 we increase the time span it just gets stuck and we get nothing the user tool 
 just gets stuck.
 
 The application is a complete custom application and we are not using 
 anything OOTB apart from foundation part(people form, user form etc). 
 The AR architecture is such that we have only 1 application server (ARS 
 7.6.0.4 SP2) which is our reporting server as well. Then we have a remote SQL 
 2008 DB and a stand alone MT ARS 7.6.0.4. 
 
 The configurations of the above servers is as below
 
 ARS/Reporting Server = 32GB RAM 100Gb HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 SQL or DB server = 16GB RAM 500GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 MT Server = 16GB RAM 100GB HDD 2.6Ghz dual core 2 processors.
 
 Now there are few things that we plan to configure to improve performance on 
 the system and would like some opinion on the same from you guys so as to 
 what more can be done on the same.
 
 Things we plan to do :
 
 1) Threads and queues to be configured : Gradually increase the number of 
 threads from the default value (not sure about the number)
 2) Indexes : To set 6-7 fields as indexes on the form on which the reports 
 runs.
 3) Disable unwanted escalation : Don't know if this will help but will try to 
 disable most of the unwanted OOTB escalations which we do not use.
 4) MT JVM memory check : Its already set to max = 1024 MB not sure how much 
 can we increase it more.
 5) Check for DB side configuration : This is something new we are trying to 
 find out things that we can configure on DB side to get better performance.
 
 Also we think this all infrastructure being on cloud would make a difference 
 as well am I right?
 
 Thanks in advance for the replies.
 
 Regards,
 Vikrant

No Lock Setting on AR CFG

2012-11-01 Thread ravi rai

Hi,
We are getting few DB lock cases and planning to implement 
READ-COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT and ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION  (Long term) 
There was a recent thread on NO Lock in Ar.cfg. Planning to add No Lock for 
short term 
What impact it has on performance of the system. Anyone implemented it faced 
any issues 
 
BMC suggested:NOLOCK should NOT be enabled – this is contrary to our guides, 
but is the correct settings per BMC Performance and deployment teams
 
Please suggest
  
Thanks 
Ravi Rai

Re: HP UX: Upgrading install Oracle failed to connect the database.

2012-11-01 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
Try running ldd on the 7.6.04 arserverd file
   ldd arserverd

That should tell you if all shared libraries are able to be found

Running file on the 7.6.04 arserverd binary file should tell you the version of 
the file
   file arserverd

If I remember correctly you also need to go in and add a symbolic link in the 
oracle library directory.  To check do the following:
   #  cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
   #  ls -al libclntsh*

You will see something like:
           -rwxrwxr-x   1 {user}  {group}   45396816 Sep  9  2010 
libclntsh.so.11.1
            lrwxrwxrwx   1 {user}  {group}        17 Jan  6  2011 libclntsh.so 
- libclntsh.so.11.1
            lrwxrwxrwx   1 {user}  {group}        12 Jan  6  2011 
libclntsh.so.10.1 - libclntsh.so

In your case you probably only have libclntsh.so.11.1.   If so then create 
the 2 symbolic links:
   #  ln -s libclntsh.so.11.1  libclntsh.so
   #  ln -s libclntsh.so  libclntsh.so.10.1

** Hi Patrick,

Sorrywent for vacation.

Still the same issue we are facing today Failed to connect database and in 
installer log we found following line.
 LOG EVENT {Description=[SET PROPERTY 
VALIDATION_ERROR_RESULT],Detail=INVALID_OCI_ORACLE_CONNECTION_UNIX]}

We tried to fix by all possibilities from our side but no luck. Seems something 
is missing still some where.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is pointing now to the 64bit.

I am able to do sqlplus and tnsping as well. Please suggest.
