Re: USER_CACHE Problems

Hi,

If you get ARERR 329, the user/password seems not to match. At least not to
what is in the cache...

You can use another program named arecache to add a new admin user that you
can later use with arreload.

Note that the -s option changed to/from -t at some point. I do not remember
which version.

Choose a Login Name and Request ID that does not exist.

  arcache -Ua -d -e 1500 -n loginname -s server -g 1; -l1 -p passwd

If you are out of fixed licenses, you might need to delete a current Fixed
user before you add the new one.

 arcache -Ud -d -e x -s ServerName

Finally try the arreload again.

I also recall a bug with arreload together with the -d option. Try avoiding
-d. I do not remember the exact version with this problem either...

 ARERR 329 :

 Invalid password or authentication string for an existing user

 The password you have specified for the user name is not recognized. The
 problem can be

 either with the password or with the authentication string (if using NT
 authentication, the

 authentication string is the NT domain) or both. Enter the password defined
 for this user

 name to access the system as that user.

 I've used both Demo with a Fixed license and Admin privs. as well as my own

 A little help please!

 My legacy server is showing an issue that I have not dealt with before.

 A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to
 tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has
 been resolved.  A couple of my users had closed their clients during that
 time and when they came back received the error message that they were
 still logged on and would they like the other session closed.  They would
 answer in the affirmative, but when they would then log back on, they would
 get the same message.  I then tried to kick them off from the admin tool,
 but they would still get the message.

 I then triggered (I think) a re-cache by adding a display only checkbox
 and then doing a modify all against all users with that checkbox checked.
 I did this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.
 However I still have a couple of users who are getting this message.

 User logs don't show a need for them to be released, in fact they just
 show them logging in as normal.

 

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Brian Goralczyk
If you gave the person admin permissions and the problem went away and then
came back after you removed it.  Then the issue isn't the user_cache.  The
issue is the permissions that the user has and the permissions required for
the screen you are trying to access.  Everything is changing when
permissions are changed so the user_cache and that whole under lying system
is working fine.

I am sorry I don't have better advice for you, but I would say find someone
who it is working for and making sure that this user has the same access.
Another thing to look into is the data for their permissions in the db.
You might see a bit of corruption in the group assignment.  I have found
issues with manually pasting in values sometimes.  I hope some of that
helps.

Re: Problem with ITSM Consoles

2015-02-12 Thread Danaceau, Chris
Double check that the company permissions were properly applied to the user 
record.  I just ran into that with a couple users.   The access company was set 
on the People record but it did not translate to the User form.

Hi All
I am having a weird problem. Well weird at least for me!
On the ITSM application when I open a console it opens but stays blank. The 
user has all the permissions I could possibly give.
I can submit for example an Incident or Change or modify assets, just the 
Consoles stay blank. I have a suspicion it might be related to a plug-in but 
don't know which one.

Re: OT: Setting up a demo environment on LINUX..

2015-02-12 Thread Joe D'Souza
I also heard from a reliable resource that you can install the AR System
server (and perhaps even the ITSM apps and Atrium products) on Windows 7
Professional as it has the same libraries that are required for the
installation as a Windows Server.

He was sure of the AR System but has not tried ITSM and Atrium on Windows 7
Professional. I'd like to know if anyone has attempted that. If that is
possible, I  might not even need to install VirtualBox and create a Linux
virtual instance.

If anyone has successfully installed the whole suite (AR System, Mid-Tier,
ITSM, Atrium) on Windows 7 Professional, I'd like to know the hardware
configuration of the machine you used.

Cheers

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Joe D'Souza
While the user is not logged on from the machine they are trying to log in
from when receiving the error that they are logged in from another machine,
do you see any activity from that particular user on user logging? It might
just be a plain and simple case of the user actually having logged in
somewhere else and being automatically staying logged in from there.

 

What happens after the timeout?

 If you gave the person admin permissions and the problem went away and
then
 came back after you removed it.  Then the issue isn't the user_cache.  The
 issue is the permissions that the user has and the permissions required
for
 the screen you are trying to access.  Everything is changing when
 permissions are changed so the user_cache and that whole under lying
system
 is working fine.

 I am sorry I don't have better advice for you, but I would say find
someone
 who it is working for and making sure that this user has the same access.
 Another thing to look into is the data for their permissions in the db.
 You might see a bit of corruption in the group assignment.  I have found
 issues with manually pasting in values sometimes.  I hope some of that
 helps.

 Hi,

 If you get ARERR 329, the user/password seems not to match. At least not
to
 what is in the cache...

 You can use another program named arecache to add a new admin user that
you
 can later use with arreload.

 Note that the -s option changed to/from -t at some point. I do not
remember
 which version.

 Choose a Login Name and Request ID that does not exist.

   arcache -Ua -d -e 1500 -n loginname -s server -g 1; -l1 -p passwd

 If you are out of fixed licenses, you might need to delete a current
Fixed
 user before you add the new one.

  arcache -Ud -d -e x -s ServerName

 Finally try the arreload again.

 I also recall a bug with arreload together with the -d option. Try
avoiding
 -d. I do not remember the exact version with this problem either...

Re: DB Copy Issue

Hi,

Yes, but you can still use a Fixed license on both servers with
old/legacy/green licensing, as long as it is assigned to the same user. So if
you have an account on both servers, you will only need one fixed license for
that user.

 I thought of two more items worth mentioning. The User records will be copied
 over so to remain in compliance you will likely need to change most of your
 user accounts to Read licenses after the DB copy.

 Also the entitlements for user licenses mentioned by Davin only apply to the
 Blue pricing model. If you happen to be on the Legacy/Green model that is not
 the case as licenses are purchased for production use at one cost and for
 development use at a lower cost so they are not interchangeable.

 Subject: Re: DB Copy Issue

 A second vote to use the Remedy Restore Tool, plus some hints on licenses. In
 version 7.x they are stored in the database so will get copied along with
 everything else.

 Also, if you are on version 7 or newer the only license key that is tied to
 your Host ID (your hardware) is the AR Server license. You should add the AR
 Server license from DEV to your PROD environment before you copy the database.
 That way it will be there when you start up DEV post-copy.

 In terms of entitlement, my understanding is that you are entitled to use AR
 User Fixed licenses on any server in your environment as long as the users are
 the same named users (which they will be after database copy). AR User
 Floating licenses may be tied to a specific server (although not enforced by
 the license key mechanism) so you might have to adjust that number after a
 copy. However this depends on which licensing model you are under with BMC so
 you might not have to adjust anything in terms of licensing.

 Last item, you may want to disable the email engine and any external
 integrations on DEV before the copy, so you don't accidentally send duplicate
 email notifications or trigger integration actions from DEV. Also, if you are
 using custom Remedy applications at all, any server references you may have
 included for integrations and the like won't be detected and changed by Remedy
 Restore Tool. It is oriented primarily at ITSM and ARS core forms only.

 (http://communities.bmc.com/docs/DOC-7710https://communities.bmc.com/docs/DOC-7710

 production database to a non-prod environment. I normally adjust the licenses
 manually myself but it depends on your version of ARS. If you are on version 7

Re: ITSM license and foundation data

2015-02-12 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

Some forms are tagged to belong to a specific ITSM application such as the
BMC:InfrastructureChange form belongs to BMC:Change Mgmt.

CTM:People and associated forms should not be tied to any specific
application, which means that it is enough with an AR User Fixed/Floating
license ot add/update data in that form.

If you are only reading data, it will always be free.

The system will complain if you try to update data you are not entitled to
from a license perspective.

 Hello Listers,

 We are using the ITSM module in our environment and are thinking of building a
 very specific custom application.  To make things a bit easier, we were
 thinking of looking up people data from CTM:People and using that data in
 our custom application.  The users of this application will be members of a
 specific business unit that does not use the ITSM module.

 My question is this:
 Would we need the module licenses for these users to do this data read?  We
 will not be inserting or updating data into any of the ITSM forms fro our
 custom application.  I want to make sure that we are not violating any ITSM
 licensing rules. Any clarification on this will be appreciated.

 Thanks,

Weird or Expected behavior Webservice 7.6.04

2015-02-12 Thread Harsh
Hi Guys,

I just boarded to a new client where they are using integrated environment
of SharePoint with Remedy ITSM 7.6.04, they have designed the request entry
console of ITSM with all its functionality in sharepoint and integrated it
with ITSM through webservices.

Their system is working as expected but sometime it happens the generic
user through which they connects start giving authentication error messages.

After digging more i have seen they are only using one 'user' which
connects them to remedy. As per my understanding a user with fixed license
can only connect concurrently to specific amount of machine i am not sure
about the number. if there are people creating ticket concurrently through
SharePoint console in that case their ticket creation will fail and they
will get authentication errors.

I think as they are using only a single remedy user to authenticate with
web service causing this issue and the most disastrous think i have also
noticed is, they are also using the same remedy account for one more
integration.

Please provide your insight over the same.

Hi, wondering if I can integrate custom crystal report into Remedy 8.1? 
I want to add it to the Report form so I can schedule it or run adhoc like 
other out of the box  crystal reports.
Any help is highly appreciated!

Re: Work Order and approvals

2015-02-12 Thread onkar shinde
Hi Philip,
The approvers tab present on wo form is hidden and not as such really
integrated with approval server.

I have integrated wo application with approval server for one of my
customers.
In this particular case, i had made the approvers tab visible to wo users
and added a table to show 3 way join form of wo-approval, which lists
approvers and their signature status.
Also add approvers button i reused on this form to attach the approvers to
given wo request in ad hoc manner.

What are you looking exactly here.

Re: OT: Setting up a demo environment on LINUX..

2015-02-12 Thread Joe D'Souza
Kevin,

Thanks for your response.

I bought a Dell Inspiron 3847 Desktop that has a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790
CPU @ 3.60 GHz processor and has 16 GB RAM (I think this is the model
http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-3847-desktop/pd?oc=fdcwrt220hmodel_id=ins
piron-3847-desktop). By looking on the performance tab of the task  manager,
it appears like it has 2 quad core processors.

This desktop has come with Windows 7 Professional preloaded on it.

So from your experience you reckon that already having Windows 7
Professional preloaded on it, I would not need an alternate VM running a
Windows server OS or LINUX in order to stage a Demo environment?

What did you use for a web server to support the mid-tier?

Cheers

Joe

 He was sure of the AR System but has not tried ITSM and Atrium on Windows

 possible, I  might not even need to install VirtualBox and create a Linux

 Very cool!  You truly are a Remedy Rockstar!
 
 I'll have to give it another try.  I was using CentOS on VirtualBox.  I
 got
 as far as getting Oracle installed but ran into some issues with my VM
 along with navigating Oracle on my own for the first time without a DBA.
 After that I finally broke down and got a license for VMware Workstation
 to
 better match what I was wanting to do (lot of snapshots for one) and just
 went down the Windows/SQL Server path because I can knock that
 configuration out very quickly.

 I have installed AR 8.1 on Scientific Linux (Red Hat Clone) with

 I used Oracle XE which is free for small environments, and the full

 Mid-Tier + AR runs fine on 2GB memory in my VM, but I do not have ITSM
 installed on that machine.
 
 To run the installer you need X. I typically use Cygwin as X-server,
 and
 then
 do a ssh -X to the Linux server.
 
 I have a detailed script I follow in order to make everything run

 if anyone is interested, let me know.

Re: Weird or Expected behavior Webservice 7.6.04

2015-02-12 Thread Joe D'Souza
First of all if there are physical users using the same Remedy account to
create and update tickets, concurrently, you are violating the Remedy User
License agreement. If you did not already know that, you might want to
reconsider and generate separate accounts for each physical user.

 

If these users are using some sort of a portal that uses a Remedy published
WSDL, then you are ok. In fact that is how a published WSDL using a
pre-configured login for the WSDL in the Mid-Tier basically works.

 

When I set up web services, I use a dedicated account which I consider as
some sort of a service account for WSDL. This is good for tracking purposes.
Do not get into the habit of using the same account for WSDL and other
accounts like AIE etc. as this will make it difficult for you to trace
problems when you log workflow in the event of some problems.

Hi Guys,

 

I just boarded to a new client where they are using integrated environment
of SharePoint with Remedy ITSM 7.6.04, they have designed the request entry
console of ITSM with all its functionality in sharepoint and integrated it
with ITSM through webservices.

 

Their system is working as expected but sometime it happens the generic user
through which they connects start giving authentication error messages.

 

After digging more i have seen they are only using one 'user' which connects
them to remedy. As per my understanding a user with fixed license can only
connect concurrently to specific amount of machine i am not sure about the
number. if there are people creating ticket concurrently through SharePoint
console in that case their ticket creation will fail and they will get
authentication errors.

 

I think as they are using only a single remedy user to authenticate with web
service causing this issue and the most disastrous think i have also noticed
is, they are also using the same remedy account for one more integration.

 

Please provide your insight over the same.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for your reply.

Let me recollect my words- they are using a web Service i say-
SRM_RequestInterfaceCreate now in authentication header of that WS they
are passing Generic user name and password. The Generic user is owning a
fixed licence with admin permission with other couple of permission like
Incident Master.

Now take a scenario- there are four people- A- from Australia, B- from
Boston, C- from Chicago and D from Delhi their account exists in CTM:People
form already.

they are trying to create tickets concurrently through the portal which is
using this web service, they were authenticated by web service through
Generic User and their Remedy Login ID's were passed as a submitter
parameter for that ticket with other required values to create a Service
Request.

Now when user A, B, C, D clicks the submit button at same time as well as
there is one more Web service integration which is also currently doing
same transactions in Remedy with the same 'Generic User'?

will they get an authentication error or it will allow them to create
request?

Regards,
Harsh

 A little help please!

 My legacy server is showing an issue that I have not dealt with before.

 A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to
 tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has
 been resolved.  A couple of my users had closed their clients during that
 time and when they came back received the error message that they were

 answer in the affirmative, but when they would then log back on, they would
 get the same message.  I then tried to kick them off from the admin tool,
 but they would still get the message.

 I then triggered (I think) a re-cache by adding a display only checkbox
 and then doing a modify all against all users with that checkbox checked.
 I did this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.
 However I still have a couple of users who are getting this message.

 User logs don't show a need for them to be released, in fact they just
 show them logging in as normal.

 They are able to work by just closing (using the x to close the window).
 None the less, it is very annoying!

 Any ideas?

I can submit for example an Incident or Change or modify assets, just the

Hi,

Have you tried the arreload-program?
arreload -u User -f -a adminuser -p adminpassword

The -f is supposed to flush the cache before reloading it.

A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to 
tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has

this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.  However I 
still have a couple of users who are getting this message.

User logs don't show a need for them to be released, in fact they just show

They are able to work by just closing (using the x to close the window).  None 
the less, it is very annoying!

Any ideas?

Example, our environment has no Service and little Asset, so I would like to 
remove those options, BMC says it can’t be done in the current version.

  Hello,
 
  First let me state we are going to be building this in house so, thank
 you if
  you have a product that will fit my needs but we are not in a position to
  purchase something.
 
  We are starting the process of building a mobile interface for, what I
 hope
  will be, some simple tasks.
 
  Ideally we would like our users to be able to login to the system and be
  brought to a slim view of the HPD:Incident Management Console with the
 only
  options available are applying/clearing filters, looking at their list of
  tickets, and then opening the tickets up.
 
  Then they can be brought to a slim view of the HPD:Help Desk form where
 they
  will see really basic info with some options like, assign to me,
 reassign,
  resolve, update work log, etc.
 
  All that being said, in everyone's opinion would this be best achieved
 through
  separate HTML/Java web pages connected to the system via Web Services, or
  through a custom view on the respective forms, or is there another way
 that I
  have not thought of yet that might be better?
 
  We are running 8.1.00 ARS/ITSM with 8.1.01 (SP1) Mid Tier with Tomcat
 6.0.

Try Kinetic

Generally - what happens is companies try the BMC stuff - it either works
or does not for them.

If it does not - try Kinetic - often times - it is the right thing for a
company.
(We have a different philosophy in our software - and often the case - it
is what companies are looking for)

And BTW - BMC now sells Kinetic - for this very reason.

 So we just went live with 8.1.00 on Jan 1st, and it will probably be
 several years (knowing our organization) before we move onto any other new
 releases.



 If we went this route I would still need to build an mobile interface to
 interact with the data, correct?

   Hello,
  
   First let me state we are going to be building this in house so, thank
  you if
   you have a product that will fit my needs but we are not in a
 position to
   purchase something.
  
   We are starting the process of building a mobile interface for, what I
  hope
   will be, some simple tasks.
  
   Ideally we would like our users to be able to login to the system and
 be
   brought to a slim view of the HPD:Incident Management Console with the
  only
   options available are applying/clearing filters, looking at their
 list of
   tickets, and then opening the tickets up.
  
   Then they can be brought to a slim view of the HPD:Help Desk form
 where
  they
   will see really basic info with some options like, assign to me,
  reassign,
   resolve, update work log, etc.
  
   All that being said, in everyone's opinion would this be best achieved
  through
   separate HTML/Java web pages connected to the system via Web
 Services, or
   through a custom view on the respective forms, or is there another way
  that I
   have not thought of yet that might be better?
  
   We are running 8.1.00 ARS/ITSM with 8.1.01 (SP1) Mid Tier with Tomcat
  6.0.

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Walters, Mark
If you're having problems with arreload you can force a reload of the 
user_cache table by doing a Modify All on all of the records in the User form - 
select them all and change a field such as the Creator/Submitter - one that 
you're not worried about.  This will cause a delete from/insert into the 
user_cache table for each user.

I tried that Mark by utilizing a display only check box on the form.  I
figured that would workmaybe not?

I also tried giving the user Administrator level privileges.  As I
expected, the problem went away.  But the moment I took them back, the
problem was back.

If he just clicks the x in the warning box, he can work.  The funny thing
is that it pops back up when he opens his helpdesk case form.  I suspect
this may have something to do with the Helpdesk license assigned to him.
Just a guess though.

Hi Lisa,

Another possible issue you might be encountering here is a full disk volume on 
a mounted folder. (See 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365733(v=vs.85).aspx)

If the folder you are installing to (or any of it's parents), or any other 
folder the installer is writing files to, is a mounted folder and the 
underlying volume/disk is full, you might encounter an issue that seems as if 
you have space left on the drive but you get errors regarding running out of 
disk space.

HTH.

Theo

Personally I would do the install like this ...

Shift Right-Click on the Disk1 folder you extracted to the D drive and 
choose  Open command Window here
In the command prompt do:
SET TEMP=D:\TEMP
SET TMP=D:\TEMP
setup.cmd

This will set the environment to the temp folder you want the install 
to use and will also run the install as admin.

Just to confirm, did you extract the install files before running the 
installer?

I have seen this when you open the downloaded zipped file directly by 
double clicking and running the installer?

Try this,
Right click downloaded zip file and extract using winzip or any other 
third party utility to a folder on your d drive. This will extract all files to 
the directory specified. Run the installer from there

 The password you have specified for the user name is not

 either with the password or with the authentication string (if
 using NT authentication, the
 authentication string is the NT domain) or both. Enter the
 password defined for this user
 name to access the system as that user.

 I've used both Demo with a Fixed license and Admin privs. as well
 as my own user id that also has admin privs.  Am I missing something?

 running or you will only get that number of users loaded into the user_cache

 Hi,

 Have you tried the arreload-program?
 arreload -u User -f -a adminuser -p adminpassword

 The -f is supposed to flush the cache before reloading it.

Subject: Atrium SSO 9.0 + Userid Format Question

** 
Hi Everyone
 I need some help please. I am busy setting up atrium SSO in my environment and 
cannot seem to get the final steps working. The atrium SSO installation went 
through with no errors and I have successfully added a user store to our remedy 
application server (Version 8). I know this is working because in the Users and 
Groups sections I can see my remedy usernames and groups being pulled through.
 I have also setup Kerberos Authentication with a Flag of Sufficient and the 
Profile as Dynamic. However when I test the SSO solution and I have a direct 
URL to the SRM console, it opens the page however it doesn't authenticate me. 
The Welcome message on the top right corner of SRM is empty whereas it would 
usually say Welcome Joe Soap. It also complains about permissions which 
confirms my thoughts.
 I currently only have one web server (Also version 8) integrated to the Atrium 
SSO which I did by following the instructions in the installation guide and 
running the SSOMidtierIntegation application - also which installed with no 
errors.
 Once thing I did notice is that if I look in Atrium SSO under the Sessions 
section, I can see my username in there however it is in the format of 
'userid@domain'.
So it is j...@abc.com' which doesn't match my remedy usernames which is just 
'joes'.
Basically I need to strip out the domain information from the userid in Atrium 
SSO and I have looked at all config settings and cannot find anything anywhere.
 I did see under the Kerberos settings that there is a option for Use Domain 
name with Principal however that is not enabled at all.
 Does anyone know how Atrium SSO gets the user information from the web server 
and how I can change the format of that information before it reaches the SSO 
server ?
 Thanks in advance
Brad

A little help please!

My legacy server is showing an issue that I have not dealt with before.

A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to 
tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has 
been resolved.  A couple of my users had closed their clients during that time 
and when they came back received the error message that they were still logged 
on and would they like the other session closed.  They would answer in the 
affirmative, but when they would then log back on, they would get the same 
message.  I then tried to kick them off from the admin tool, but they would 
still get the message.

I then triggered (I think) a re-cache by adding a display only checkbox and 
then doing a modify all against all users with that checkbox checked.  I did 
this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.  However I 
still have a couple of users who
