Re: In ITSM, should users be able to select a person if the people Profile Status = Delete/obsolete
Your observation is correct; if you look at the workflow you'll see that profile status field isn't included when selecting a person. However, the client type of 'Vendor' is used to exclude people selection so a workaround could be to set this field as well as the status field when soft deleting a person.

If we set a people record 'Profile Status' to Obsolete or Delete users can still select this person in the Incident/Change modules. I have seen it written in previous posts that this field is only a marker and does not affect the record, but I have not seen anything in the official documents and other people I spoke to say that it is a defect. So before I go to support does anyone know is this indeed a defect or is it working as designed (badly?) I would hope that marking a profile as obsoltete or for deletion should restrict the use of this record like it does for other records. What does anyone else do with the old records when people leave - archive? I am trying to think of the implications of deleting the record and the only thing I can think of is that you would lose a bit of an audit trail on the people record itself - the incident / change records would not be affected even if an open Incident was linked to a person that was deleted.

Re: OT: April 3 marks the 40th anniversary of the first cell phone call
Hmmm... The first Swedish mobile phone call was made in 1950, and the first commercial mobile phone system was launched in 1956. There were only three very powerful base stations (cells?) in Sweden. The bulky phones, which needed to be installed in cards, could be connected to up to three base stations.

Re: AREA LDAP 8.0 Configuration Issue
I had this problem... I had to set Authentication Chaining Mode to: AREA - ARS. Hope this is helpful. Larry On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 5:50 PM, Kapil Banwari kapil.banw...@gmail.comwrote: If you are using CRBP(Cross Ref Blank password)= True, and you have mainly AR groups (not specific AD groups) which you need to use, make sure in AREA LDAP configuration form, in the License Mask and in the Write license (under Defaults and Mapping attributes to user information), you don't have any value mentioned over there. If it is blank, it is going to pick the licenses from User form, and you should get token as per mentioned in user form. If there is no specific reason to use chaining mode, it can be set to off, as by default it is set to first go to ARS and then to AREA. If you are using any sso plugin, then in those cases chaining is usually helpful and enabled. By default, the way it works with chaining disabled is, first it go to user form, it will check if that user exists in user form, and if that user have blank password in user form (with CRBP=true) and then it will authenticate via the password of AD .

Re: Packing Lists
I tend to avoid using those too and prefer Working Lists and then export every object in that list manually. The only problem working with Working Lists is that when you create new objects, they do not get auto refreshed in that list until you reopen that list. Renamed objects do not appear to be renamed either and sometimes at random it does refresh the list to reflect the new name. I have not seen a trend as to when that happens and when it doesn't I wish at some point they fixed that although it does appear like its been done that way by design - to perhaps not perform a search on every new save.

Hi All, I watched the movie Moneyball a few nights ago. Billy Beane (general manager for the Oakland A's) had advice for delivering bad news - just give it to 'em straight. So here goes.

Re: AR Patch Upgrade 7.6.04 Patch 4
Haven't tried it on a server group yet, but I don't see why you would need to do any of that either. It doesn't alter the database structure so the other servers in the server group should still be able to connect when one has been patched. But I don't see why you would leave some servers unpatched. I would do them all one after the other.. The only thing I would do (although I do not see the need to) is stop the service on the other servers too and declare a maintenance outage..

Re: Packing Lists
Joe, hit f5 button and try it, it would refresh without opening. This has worked for me - Karthik On 5 April 2013 05:12, Joe D'Souza jdso...@shyle.net wrote: I tend to avoid using those too and prefer Working Lists and then export every object in that list manually. The only problem working with Working Lists is that when you create new objects, they do not get auto refreshed in that list until you reopen that list. Renamed objects do not appear to be renamed either and sometimes at random it does refresh the list to reflect the new name. I have not seen a trend as to when that happens and when it doesn't I wish at some point they fixed that although it does appear like its been done that way by design - to perhaps not perform a search on every new save.

Re: Ad Integration with remedy 7.1
There are various ways to configure AREA LDAP. 1. Authenticate unregistered Users - If this option is set then user does not need to be exist in user form. AR tries to authenticate user using external authentication. 2. Cross Reference Blank Password - User need to be exist in User form with no password. In this case AR tries to cross-reference the user using external authentication. 3. Authentication Chaining Mode - There are various behaviors/ways using this option.

OT: An unexpected fork in the road...
David I'm sorry to hear of this news. Your input to this community has been appreciated by hundreds of ARSlisters, and the frequency of your input would appear to have exceeded that of any other BMC employee. I honestly don't know how you managed to remember so much AR System documentation that for any subject, you always had a reference/link to hand! I assume you can now join the 'dark side' and become a contractor, of which I suspect there will be plenty of work ahead of you.
