Re: Query for showing Form menu items..

2015-04-18 Thread Joe D'Souza
I don't think there is a need to add any custom code as the code that is
currently attached to those menus are tested to be fully functional. I just
wanted to query their DB to locate all the forms they had those menus and
icons on the menu bar so I could document all the forms that would need the
attention of the developers to change those to buttons or navigation items.

While your def file converter seems like a useful tool that I could suggest
to them after documenting the lists, right now I was primarily interested in
querying and documenting them as "risk items" that would need some
alteration so that the overall functionality of their current apps remain
the same post upgrade.

Cheers

Joe

PS: Useful tool by the way...

Hi,

Yes, you need to move it around and resize it as appropriate.

You need not run it on their machines. It works on def-files and can be run
anywhere.

If you do not import the resulting def, nothing can happen.

It converts everything, so I do not know the end result. I suspect that BMC
has no Base Mode buttons defined as drop-down menus, as they would not work
in
Mid-Tier. If that is the case, they would only have Custom or Overlay
drop-down menus, and you would be fine importing the end result.

Come to think of it, it might be that I need to add some kind of property to
the Nav-field to put it in the proper Custom mode... Let me know if you need
that, and I will look into it.

Regardless, use it to do a report of the existing drop-down menus.

Re: No Floating license error

2015-04-18 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

The free version of RRR|License can always be used for monitoring and
evaluating your current situation, as well as telling you how many licenses
you actually need.

For tracking license failures, you need the full user-log, either file based
or form based in ARX format.

You can also use the AR System Historical License Usage form in ARX format,
which might be easier in a Remedy on Demand situation. The drawback with this
is that the NO WRITE FREE situations are not logged there. But up until that
exact point, the data will show the full situation.

No Floating license error

2015-04-18 Thread Pandi C
Hi,

Floating License user are receiving No Write license message to Modify /
Save a record, So to avoid the error first we reduced Floating Licence
Timeout to 1 hour as default and reduced Session Timeout also in Mid Tier.

But we would like to check the report of user license usage list & time,
and require your suggestion to avoid floating license error.
