Re: DMT data upload issue.
Hi, 2 potential issues appear in the log file: · UDM Directory appears not to be set or set to a directory with the incorrect permissions to allow creation of the sub folders "{JOB DIR}" where the converted spread sheets are kept during the import. https://docs.bmc.com/docs/display/public/itsm81/Configuring+the+BMC+Remedy+AR+System+repository+for+attachments+and+spreadsheets · The spreadsheet does not have the correct extension, although I think this error is a by-product of the first error as it cannot store the temp file. _ Kind Regards, Carl Wilson http://www.missingpiecessoftware.com/ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Abhi$hek Sent: 30 June 2014 07:27 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: DMT data upload issue. ** Hi Experts, Thanks for your kind response.

Goal Set on App form is not working for Service Targets
Hi, In our production environment, we had used 'Goal Set on App form' to calculate the service target based on custom field in HPD:Help Desk. Although we can see the custom field is getting set but in SLM:Measurement ReferenceEndGoalforRequestBasedSVTsFieldValue field is empty even in OOTB filter created during Data Source rebuild is mapped with custom field which is getting set. We can't reproduce as it is production. Please suggest if anyone faced similar issue and got any resoution.

Re: Question on filter phasing
Hi, Filter phasing and the order in which things are run is clearly printed in the log-files (ESCL+API+FLTR+SQL is what I typically put in the same file). You might need a good tool to assist in reading the files as Notepad might not make it clear enough (ADV: RRR|Log). I you do not meddle with filter phasing, which is very seldom needed, and treat each modification of data on it's own merits, checking changed field values ('Data'!='DB.Data') instead of obscure read-only-field-triggers ('z1D Action' = "blablabla"), you will have no big problems at all. But I have seen many examples of filter design that is not very well structured... Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se (ARSList MVP 2011) Ask the Remedy Licensing Experts (Best R.O.I.

Re: How to generate .arx file in ITSM 7.6.04
Hi, You might want to try RRR|Chive. The tool can both export and import ARX-files, and it is free to use it. One great benefit is that it can actually do Delta-exports to your ARX-files speeding consecutive exports significantly (and yes, the delta-export will remove deleted records from the ARX-file).

Re: How to generate .arx file in ITSM 7.6.04
In 7.6.4, you can still execute RUNMACRO from the command line. It will dump to .arx. After 7.6.4, you'll have to use ARExport.

Re: CMDB Row Level Security
Just looked at local logs when logging into both App servers (active link, filters, sql, API) and they are the same. I'm looking into the DB right now.
