Re: BMC Engage

[BradRemedy]

yeah I also heard the same thing. And just when I wanted to go to it this
year. I really wish BMC would just stick to one thing. I also wish that
WWWRUG would come back.

There is no way that I will be able to get motivation to fly to a one day
event. I managed to convince the business that the 4 day event in the
states was fantastic and worth the money.

I haven't been to an ENGAGE yet so can't comment on it but yes the WWWRUG
were definitely worth it for a lot of reasons if you could afford the cost
and expense associated to making to one..

 

So where would these "exchanges" be held at?

Re: BMC Engage

[Tauf Chowdhury]

Engage was good to see some future stuff and vision for BMC products but it was 
definitely diluted with too much sales crap. WWRUG had intelligent presenters 
for the most part instead of some consulting firm trying to sell me their 
custom product in the guise of "improving cmdb" or something else.

ARS 9.1.02 Upgrade

[Grooms, Frederick W]

I am trying to upgrade an 8.1.02 ARS only (Single server, no CMDB no ITSM) to 
9.1 and when it tries to start I get the following 

INFO - Thu Feb 02 11:45:11.013 2017 Application context refresh failed

I have a ticket opened with BMC but they have not responded.   

According to the install docs (which I had to find under the ITSM install) the 
only rights needed for ARS are (which I have):   
grant alter session, create cluster, create database link, create sequence, 
create session, create synonym, create table, create view, create procedure, 
create trigger, query rewrite to ARole_arsys;   

Anybody know what other permissions I need to have granted for ARS 9.1 to run.  
 
I am on Red-Hat Linux 7 with Oracle 11g and the installer did not complain 
about any missing privileges.

Re: ARS 9.1.02 Upgrade

[LJ LongWing]

Fred,
This link (https://community.oracle.com/thread/287327)
suggests that  IMP_FULL_DATABASE fixes this...but is apparently considered
overkill...another post says

SELECT ANY TABLE
UPDATE ANY TABLE

eliminates this error

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20988572/getting-ora-01031-insufficient-privileges-while-querying-a-table-instead-of-ora
suggests
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges happens when the object exists in the
schema but do not have any access to that object.

Re: Job Opportunity

Hi Jo'el,


I am currently working in Colorado as Remedy ITSM Engineer and I am open to
move out from my current company if the opportunity presents itself and if
it's a good move.  However, I am a green card holder, I don't know if I can
secure a secret clearance and what not?

Thanks,

Re: BMC Engage

Kaïs

These local events (mini Engage) sounds like the local User groups that were 
setup by the Remedy Sales Reps eons ago.  I believe I first meet you at one of 
those events here in Pennsylvania.

I am also likely the only person ever asked to leave one of those local User 
Group meetings.  Not because I was rowdy.  Because I would not give my SSN for 
a background check for the User Group meeting (public meeting) held at a 
facility that performed government work.

These local events (mini Engage) sounds like the local User groups that were 
setup by the Remedy Sales Reps eons ago.  I believe I first meet you at one of 
those events here in Pennsylvania.

I am also likely the only person ever asked to leave one of those local User 
Group meetings.  Not because I was rowdy.  Because I would not give my SSN for 
a background check for the User Group meeting (public meeting) held at a 
facility that performed government work.

This seems to be true as I found here: https://communities.bmc.com/thread/159503

"...But essentially,  we are changing it up to a more flexible, innovative and 
approachable format for our customers.  In 2017,  we'll be hosting MORE locally 
based,  one day FREE events (think mini Engage) and they will be called BMC 
Exchange. We already host BMC Exchanges outside North America and have for many 
years.  They're widely successful!  We understand and have heard from our 
customers that being away from the office for a week, the conference fee and 
the T&E expense to come to LV is a lot.  So more exciting information to in Jan 
and thank you for you patience as we work on the details/schedule..."

There is no way that I will be able to get motivation to fly to a one day

was fantastic and worth the money.

I hear they are trying to revive the WWRUG (the founders) in a different

one..

And everything they are saying is 'we conducted surveys and listened to the
public and decided that multiple geo-centric events is betier than a 4 day
global conference.'  Really? Who did they talk to?  I say the new CEO did
not want to fork over a million to subsidize and organize these events.
Probably gave the pink slip to the BMC event dept.

Re: BMC Engage

[Pierson, Shawn]

It seems like they’ve been dumping their money into the software, considering 
how quickly they’ve advanced since going private with stuff like Smart IT.  As 
much as I prefer them hiring developers over salespeople, it does seem like 
they should hire some more sales staff to make an effort to both keep their 
existing customer base and find new customers.

Thanks,

Shawn Pierson

Re: BMC Engage

[Paul J. Zagarella]

I spoke to my sales rep and confirmed that the 2017 Engage in Vegas is 
cancelled. The comments that I heard about Engage 2016 were in line with what I 
noticed at the conference as well. The fact that they pushed Innovation Studio 
and did not have any sessions on it or any workshops was crazy. They were 
really pushing Blade Logic and Control M but did very little with ITSM. The 
funny thing is that all the ITSM sessions and workshops were booked and the 
Blade Logic and Control M sessions were empty or half empty. They really need 
to focus on tech for these instead of sales and more people would come and 
maybe even buy stuff! When you go to CES or even something like Blizzcon, you 
see product and get to try stuff out. They should have scheduled labs with 
HRCase, Innovation Studio, etc, going the whole entire time. In general, they 
should have planned way more labs/training sessions  and encouraged developers 
to bring their apps to showcase. Also, moving it from the second week of 
September would really help as most schools are too busy with the start of the 
school year. Well…. we will see what happens at the new format but basically it 
will probably end up being more sales. ☹

Yeah, given how well the last one was attended, there has to be some other 
reason.  I'm guessing it has something to do with sales goals.

one..

And everything they are saying is 'we conducted surveys and listened to the 
public and decided that multiple geo-centric events is betier than a 4 day 
global conference.'  Really? Who did they talk to?  I say the new CEO did not 
want to fork over a million to subsidize and organize these events.  Probably 
gave the pink slip to the BMC event dept.

I haven’t been to an ENGAGE yet so can’t comment on it but yes the WWWRUG were 
definitely worth it for a lot of reasons if you could afford the cost and 
expense associated to making to one..

So where would these “exchanges” be held at?

Re: OT: Hans Rosling is dead...

[Doug Blair]

Misi,

This is so sad! Hans has been inspirational, concise, clever and clear, and 
I’ve loved every second of his TED talks including the one where he 
demonstrated sword-swallowing - sort of unusual for a statistician, no?

And for those who have not watched his collected TED’s and other presentations, 
as long as you followed Misi’s link (really, do watch!) you may as well look at 
the rest on TED. Wonderful, enlightening and hopeful…

He will be missed…

Doug
