Re: RKM 7.6.04 import of articles from a third party location
You can't simply use the Data Import Tool because each RKM article stores data in two forms: RKM:KnowledgeArticleManager (stores the article ID, Title, etc) and then whatever type of article it is joined to HowTo, Reference etc is the form containing those form specific values (Question, Answer, etc). BMC has a non-GA tool that you can use to convert XML, CSV, HTML files into RKM 7.6 but you have to request it through customer support. We have also had success creating a custom Java program that reads in the data source and connects to the AR server and using the AR API you can populate the respective forms. Hope that helps.

Re: Remedy Knowledge Paks
In 7.6.03 RKM was re-written as an AR app. Therefore, the implementation of RightAnswers is totally different than it was in previous versions of RKM. I haven't been part of an implementation with RightAnswers in RKM 7.6+ but I have heard that it takes a decent amount of database space (with RKM content residing in the AR database now).

Re: Knowledge Management Install
I agree that RKM should be on its own machine. I would look to go with 7.2 (which is supported against AR 6) or even 7.5 which isn't necessarily supported but you are custom environment anyway. The 7.2 guide even walks through a custom integration.

It looks like you are using your application server, so you may not have conflicting versions of Tomcat, but there is still a potential somewhere for some sort of conflict. Also, whether you like it or not, the application is web-based. RKM has literally nothing to do with Remedy aside from some minor integrations, so it won’t be like dealing with another Remedy app. It’s dealing with a another third party app that can be integrated with Remedy to populate it’s users and groups, populate the dropdowns from the Product Catalog and such, and you can integrate from Remedy apps to be able to display RKM in View Fields. You should look through the steps to integrating it with Incident Management, because you could leverage some of that workflow to integrate it with your custom apps. The only other thing to keep in mind is to be current on all patches, and hope for the best.

Re: KRM 7.5 FTS Installation
RKM 7.5 is only supported on Tomcat 5. The easiest configuration is to put RKM on its own machine and using the Hummingbird installer that comes with RKM (get another machine) this way you also avoid contention with mid-tier. You could run multiple instances of Tomcat on your WEBSERVER machine and have hummingbird live there as well. You could also consider installing RKM on the APPSERVER (with the installers built in Tomcat 5.5) and try to utilize your existing Hummingbird on that same machine (although I don't really like this approach as I like to keep the web requests off of the AR server).

Wherever you choose to install Hummingbird, you will find a fultext subfolder and in that folder you will find the corresponding tables that hummingbird creates to store the indexes.

Re: KB tool
** It is quite simple to install (in 7.5 it even does the ITSM integration work for you as before you had to modify forms/active links).Configurations are pretty simple and most are done via a GUI configuration tool (all of them are driven via the KMS_Config.xml file) so if editing XML is something you are comfortable doing then you shouldn't have too much difficulty.I recommend you change the Authoring workflow steps, review the templates and tweak as needed for your business needs. I would certainly look to KCS as the methodology that drives your process and subsequent configurations.Overall, RKM becomes very usable very quickly, but getting your analysts to actually own and use the knowledge it stores is where you will find the most difficulty. In helping organizations implement KCS and RKM we have found that this is really where the service desk obtains true economies of scale as you are effectively able to reuse your knowledge in resolving incidents.Alan BlakeKnowlysis--- On Tue, 6/15/10, Boyd, Rebecca E. boy...@wfu.edu wrote:From: Boyd, Rebecca E. boy...@wfu.eduSubject: Re: KB toolTo: arslist@ARSLIST.ORGDate: Tuesday, June 15, 2010, 8:13 AM** We are looking at deploying KM it for internal purposes (at least initially) and fall under the category of a small to medium shop.

RKM is designed around Remedy, so you do get some nice integration features like being able to specify resolution category information, etc., for when you use a KB article to solve an Incident and such. That said, I would also look at the number of people using the system, how you intend the KB to be used (self support, as an aid to the help desk, etc.), how many articles you expect to have in the KB, etc. In my experience, RKM is not an enterprise class application, but it more suited to smaller shops. It lacks good management capabilities for a large number of users, Remedy support groups, and articles. For a smaller shop (say, less than 100 support groups, or only a few hundred users, a few hundred or a few thousand articles, etc.), RKM may be fine. For a larger organization, in my experience, the tool has not been stable enough or manageable enough. In our case, it has been the most problematic of any of the BMC applications I’ve worked with. So, for a small to medium organization, RKM may work fine. For a larger organization, or where you intend to supply a knowledge base to a large set of external clients, there are a number of other possible solutions that may work better for you depending on your needs, and most of the major KB vendors will claim that they can integrate with Remedy in one way or another.

Re: Tomcat on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit with IIS
To get Tomcat to run on a windows 2008 64 bit server I had to add the JRE bin folder to the PATH. It is an issue with getting 2k8 to start the service if I remember correctly, to prove that you can execute the bootstrap.jar and tomcat will startup that way.

Re: Cannot load required libraries - RKM 7.2
When you get Cannot load required libraries that typically means there is a conflict in the JAR files with mid-tier (like you saw in the KB articles). Seeing as you don't have mid-tier on the same box as RKM that isn't the issue. As the log describes you have an AR connection issue. Confirm that you have the correct host, user, password for your AR Connection setting in KMS_Config.xml. This user must be an Administrator and have a fixed license.

Re: Remedy v7.5 Hardware Landscape - Suggestions??
With Knowledge Mgr or RKM (I'm assuming) your single point of failure for failover will be your Hummingbird search server. For true loadbalancing you will want at least two web servers running RKM and one data server housing the search server. You could then mirror that setup as an entire failover solution and you would just need to rebuild your search server indexes. I typically like to see RKM on a separate machine than mid-tier (two enterprise applications fighting over the same Tomcat resource can be problematic) Hope that helps.

Open an incident in the Remedy User client that has at least one carriage return in the Summary field, Notes field, or Resolution field 2. Click on the button Create Knowledge Base Entry on the Resolution tab of the incident. At this point you should notice that the contents of your Incident are populated into the RKM web article window correctly. Now follow these steps when logged into your Mid Tier: 1. Open the same incident you opened before in the Remedy User client 2. Click on the Create Knowledge Base Entry on the Resolution tab of the incident. You should notice that the contents of the incident are NOT populated into the RKM web article window. I was able to verify this with certainty. It seems to be an issue with the REPLACE command used in the active link KMS:HD:Create_KB_Solution. In this active link, there is a Push fields action that pushes to the KMS:DataExchange form and pushes xml coding and other data from the incident to a Data field on this form. Inside the Value being passed to the Data field you can see there are various REPLACE commands that try to replace a carriage return with a BR. This workflow apparently works fine with a incident with carriage returns if fired from the Remedy User tool but not for the Mid Tier.

Re: RKM 7.2 and ITSM 7.0.3 Problem Mgmnt Integration
The Problem Management integration basically exposes the RKM articles so you can use the KB for your problems or root causes. A question that always comes up is why not just use RKM for your known errors? Because in known errors you are able to track the lifecycle of the error and this isn't done as well through RKM.

The integration piece for the application is a semi manual process for 7 anyways as you have to manually create the fields and tabs necessary for the integration, giving it the necessary field ID's manually.

Re: RKM Search Results more than 50
There is a setting in KMS_Config.xml that limits search results so you won't even be able to see more that the default 50. searchEngine max-hits=0 Look for the searchEngine tag and add the max-hits attribute. You can set this to anything, if you set it to 0 then it is unlimited. The default is 50 if it isn't set. As far as defaulting the drop down selection value there is no configuration setting to do that, you could likely pull it off by utilizing the template feature and extending the JS code to do so, but more than likely your users won't scroll through 100 results anyway before trying a new search.

Re: Selection Field: Value vs. Alias Value?
Thanks! I like the second selection box approach - it is a lot cleaner than all those active links. I did have to run SUBSTR() on the field. Otherwise, I guess it was bringing in the ID thus causing an Arithmetic error. Thanks again.

Alan, I realize you already found a solution... but I had already started this... so .. I will send it anyway. Ok... now that post defines what you are after... :) You need to find the string value (in a string form) so that you can pass the string out to an external integration. ( Sorry, but using a URL to pass data has to be defined as an external integration in my book. Even if the web site is the Mid-tier. Which RKM is not actually the Mid-tier anyways. But that is another fish to fry in a different thread.. :) ) One approach that I have seen people take... Create a second selection field that does not have a difference between the Alias and the Value values for the selection field. That way you keep the two fields in sync at design time and at run time you set the no-alias field with the current value from the Alias field then you can use the no-alias fields value and get the Value string your after. Note: You may have to set the no-alias selection field to a character field too. (But that should just be a few actions in one active link. Another is to go to the DB with Direct SQL. ( It can be done, but I would strongly suggest not going this route.) In the short term it should work. However, Remedy (and now BMC) has never made any promise of not changing the DB at anytime. So what may work now (at the SQL level) may not work after a patch is installed, or a version upgrade is done. Yet another route... is to use the ARS API. I would think that a Filter Plugin should be a very viable way to get at this information with minimal effort... I do note however, that you did not specify what AR Server version your using if it is =7.1 then let me know and I will whip up an example ARF for you for this function. It should be very trivial to implement in the Java API, but I just can not supply a C API plugin for you. ( I am thinking a method like getSelectionValue(String Form, int fieldId, int selection_field_value) Combine that with a Service call from an Active Link and there you go. :) Anyway.. hope some of that helps someone. :) -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap Pick two.

I should be able to go to their web site (like here: http://www.bmc.com/beta_program/public/available_betas.cfm) and get the software. Oh look... it is not just me Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_test#Beta Developers release either a closed beta or an open beta; closed beta versions are released to a select group of individuals for a user test, while open betas are to a larger community group, usually the general public. The testers report any bugs that they found and sometimes minor features they would like to see in the final version. But the article does go on to say this too... When a beta becomes available to the general public it is often widely used by the technologically savvy and those familiar with previous versions as though it were the finished product. Usually developers of freeware or open-source betas release them to the general public while proprietary betas go to a relatively small group of testers. Recipients of highly proprietary betas may have to sign a non-disclosure agreement. A release is called feature complete when the product team agrees that functional requirements of the system are met and no new features will be put into the release, but significant software bugs may still exist. Companies with a formal software process will tend to enter the beta period with a list of known bugs that must be fixed to exit the beta period, and some companies make this list available to customers and testers. So I guess what BMC means by Open beta must be more along the lines of the proprietary beta process. Which really sounds like a closed beta to me. (AKA: released to a select group of individuals for a user test) Maybe they will someday make the switch to an open beta and use their entire customer/partner base. Maybe they could do that in the form of a Patch site download? That should keep the faint of heart and the non-paying customers out of the beta. Shrug. I asked my sales rep to be included in the beta... then he left the company. So I guess my request to be in the Alpha/beta likely left with him. I is simply to hard to know when and how to request access to a closed beta. FWIW: In a very general way, I have these thoughts on Beta testing programs from any software manufacturer: I think the benefits of the closed beta programs are so limited to almost be self fulling prophesy for the company. If you only ask your customers that only use your OOB applications and they only test your OOB applications, then the company has a good shot at being able to do that same testing in Alpha and knowing the results before the beta starts. But that also means that you learned almost nothing by expending all of those resource outsourcing (to the customer) the testing that you have already done internally. However, if all of the existing customers were to test what they do with the product, then the company is likely to not have tested all of the strange and special ways that those crazy customers out there end up making the product fit that square hole problem. And trust me the crazy customers want/need to test the next version because they know that they are pushing the envelope of the product and are on the (often) bleeding edge of the tech. So those testers are more likely to participate than the just OOB customers anyway. However those crazy customers will likely result in more known issues/bugs and a decrease in customer confidence due to the well known broken state of the next version. That hurts sales of the new version and thus hurts the company. So the company decides to keep the beta testers more exclusive to avoid the pain points and to try to keep the customers happy with the non-existent experience instead of satisfied with the quality of the product that they used in the testing program. But maybe it is just me.

Re: Roles and Permissions....
Flight Deck is still a program run by BMC for demonstrations, pre-sales etc on VM.

Does anyone know how to get in contact with the flight deck/author to see if it's possible or if the program might have switches etc. to allow the output to be saved? Thanks!
