RPC call failed; ONC/RPC call timed out when syncing with ADDM

Hello Listers,

I receive the following error (in AtriumPluginSvr.log) each time ADDM tries to

As a result not all CIs discovered by ADDM are synced with CMDB. 
Can anyone point me into the right direction to debuging this error?

My system configuration: AR System 8.0 patch 003, ITSM ver. 8.0, windows 2008, 
MS SQL 2008, Tomcat 6.

Thanks,

How to place text returned from a javascript function in a character field

2013-07-07 Thread Angus Comber
I have a javascript function which I can call from a run process active link 
like this:

javascript:get_some_text();

Assume this function is available and it returns the text, eg Hello

How would I copy the return result of the javascript function to a Remedy 
character field?

How to call a javascript function using a Remedy variable (ie $mytextfield$

2013-07-07 Thread Angus Comber
Assume I have a Remedy character field named mytextfield with field id 536870929

If I have a javascript function called myjsfunc which takes a string as a 
parameter, I can call this function in a Remedy run process active link like 
this:

javascript:myjsfunc('536870929');

That works fine.

However if I try to call it like this:

javascript:myjsfunc($mytextfield$);


I get logging error like this:
ActiveLink: AL_call_javascript - Sun Jul 7 2013 12:44:31
True actions:
True action: ARACTProcess(javascript:myjsfunc($536870929$);, 1);
 action 0
ARACTProcess(javascript:myjsfunc($536870929$);, 0, 1)
Alert: Caught exception :Syntax error

Do I have to put quotes round the $536870929$ ?  I would prefer to not have to 
hard code the field id.  So if there is a way to pass the actual text of the 
field by specifying the variable that would be more convenient.  But how?

  Hello Angus,

   

  I am not sure If I understand you problem correctly. Do you simply want to 
refresh the table ?

  Use Change Field Action in Active link to refresh the table OR Use 
PERFORM-ACTION-TABLE-REFRESH process.

  It should be PERFORM-ACTION-TABLE-REFRESH fieldId

   

  Note that it is not the same as  PERFORM-ACTION-TABLE_REFRESH, which you 
were using.

   

  Thanks  Regards,

  Anandsagar

  Hi

   

  I have a Table on a Form and I have set the columns to be fields in another 
form - a contacts form with eg name, age, address, etc.

   

  When the form is loaded it does not display any of the records.  But if I 
click on one of the column headers it then displays the daya in the table.

   

  I tried an active link run process - PERFORM-ACTION-TABLE_REFRESH, execute on 
Window loaded.

   

  I tried an active link with a set fields, field the table Value Default, 
execute on Window loaded.

   

  But neither of those work.

   

  What should I be doing to display the data in the table on window loaded?

   

  Angus

Re: WWRUG/ARSlist Awards 2013: Nominations for MVP etc. and New Categories now open

2013-07-07 Thread arslist
Nominations have always been restricted to one per category. If the other
person\people is\are worthy of nomination, others will nominate them. Seemed
strange to me when someone nominated a person and then didn't vote for them
too, but it is the persons choice.

 

For the BMC Employee: Sure, to be eligible they need to be employed by BMC
as of 3rd of July to be nominated for BMC Beyond the Call of Duty.

They have to still be employed by BMC when they are nominated. They don't
have to still be an employee to receive the Award.

 

I have never placed a restriction on how long ago you left BMC to be
nominated for MVP, that is new ground. There was a round of BMC layoffs a
couple of months ago. May I believe. So someone may have done most
contributions for 8 months as an employee, and  4 as not. I will leave it to
the good judgement of the court of ARSlist nominators and voters, by
nominating or not, voting for or not, for those that were and aren't BMC
Employees that fall into that category (I can think of one person in
particular I expect this to apply to). Personally I think a contribution of
someone that was clearly to the benefit of the ARSlist, i.e. the BMC Remedy
community, should be recognized one way or another so I am not inclined to
get very technical on the rules around it. Those rules that do exist were
created after a few years when a company did try to stack the deck in it's
favour, and I did not consider that in the spirit of the ARSlist, so I added
rules to avoid what they did. It is also the only year I voted.

 

Daniel

p.s. and don't forget, we accept suggestions for other categories of Awards
as well, keep them positive. Not greatest number of silly questions in one
year (the record was 25+ in two days; I tried to help the person by phoning
her to say she is welcome to continue asking the list but suggested reading
the manual that would answer them all and she screamed at me how dare I call
and suggest she read the manual, I have phoned no one since, but I digress)

In my opinion, that person should have left BMC Software during the same
period that a new subscriber is eligible to vote, so since its 3rd of July
2013 for a new ARS Lister to be eligible to vote this year, then a candidate
previously in employment with BMC Software should have left BMC before 3rd
July 2013 as well to be eligible. IF not that date then some reasonable date
that is in some way related to the voting eligibility date to keep the rule
consistent every year.

There is 1 Nomination, and one Vote per person.  Each nomination from each
independent person, this year needs to come with a paragraph of sorts
describing WHY they feel the person in question deserves to be the 2013 MVP.

 

All nominations need to go to the aforementioned email address

 

And the rule has always been that you cannot work for BMC and be
nominated...and I assume the person in question is no longer an
employee...I'm not entirely sure about the rules regarding this...not sure
we have come across a rule regarding this in the past...I'll let Daniel
decide, unless I get to decide because I'm running this thing this year

 

Daniel?

Then that person probably more than deserves to run as a nominee / candidate
for that award :)

 

About the number of people one person could nominate, it used to be 3 right?
So nominations were not restricted to just 1 candidate per person - right?

 

So we had a debate about continuing this tradition last year and many of us
thought we should. Many of you who are generally silent viewers, supported
this and promised to actively take part in the nomination / voting process
if it were continued. And it has been decided to be continued.

 

It doesn't take a lot of time to vote - and even lesser time to nominate as
you already know who your favorite posters who post quality stuff are.. So
please participate! Personally I think it's a great incentive and
recognition for those who provide us with a wealth of information here free
of charge. Not many things these days of substantial value come free. And
yet this list seems to defy that unwritten law of economics which is if it's
valuable - it can't be free. Let this be your way of contributing even
though you might not otherwise actively participate on this list.

 

Cheers

Re: Dynamic Approver in SRM

2013-07-07 Thread Vitthal Kolhe
Hi Mohamed,
You don't  need to create a new approval rule or process  for this. if you put 
the approvers login into the hidden field z1d approver and then you create a 
chain that has ad hoc as the process, the ad hoc process will send the 
signature to the person in that field. You set the approval on the SRD to 
custom and create a chain with ad hoc.

Hello Folks,

I have been trying to implement a dynamic approver in SRM but up until now no 
luck.

The requirements are as follow:
- Requester should be able to query the people form and select a name in one of 
the fields. This person should be designated as the approver of the SR.


I know that I need to create a new approval process for SRM and two new rules. 
One for Prep Get Authority and another one for Get Next Approval. I have been 
trying to do that but with no luck. 

SRM 7.6.04 environment with MS SQL 2008 and ITSM 7.6.04


Any help or thoughts will be highly appreciated.

Moe
