Hi All,

  I'm pleased to announce that AR System 7.6.03 was Released to Manufacturing 
(RTM) on August 20, 2010 and thus will GA very soon.  A customer's chosen 
method of distribution (web vs. DVD, legacy vs. Suite) will have an effect on 
when the GA product is available, so different customers may gain access to it 
at different times.  However, I expect at this time that all distribution 
methods will be fulfilled by September 10th  2010.

  The documentation for 7.6.03, though, has already been posted to Support 
Central, so I wanted to let folks know that they can see the official 
documentation of what is new in 7.6.03 today, even before the GA code may 
become available.  The What's New document can be found here:

What's New: BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.6.03 
PDFhttp://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/80/99/168099/168099.pdf

  The other documentation guides have also been posted, so you can review it 
all if you so desire.   The general documentation page can be found here: 
http://webapps.bmc.com/support/faces/prodversion.jsp?prodverseqid=180461

 While I will do what I can to answer general questions on the ARSList about AR 
System 7.6.03, please remember that my participation in this forum is voluntary 
and in addition to my other duties at BMC.   Please proper channels (e.g. 
Support, your BMC sales representative or partner, etc.) where appropriate for 
issues that require an official response.

Thanks, enjoy and see you at WWRUG10 to talk in person about this exciting new 
release of AR System.

stack installer.

Like any new product/feature I imagine people are going to run into some issues 
but BMC hit a home run with this one.  In general ARS 7.6.03 is awesome.

One note...  Now that ARS doesn't have the 2gb process memory limit (Windows 
anyway) it is a hungry little monster.  Unless there is some way of limiting 
the process memory; the days where you could run a single little VM on your 
laptop are gone.  At first we had an issue where Remedy was taking all of the 
memory and smothering SQL.  SQL would grind to a halt and wouldn't have enough 
resources to allow the Remedy start up to finish.  We were able to up the VM 
memory to 8gb and Remedy could then start.

Re: Crystal Report error

2010-07-25 Thread Debnath, Prijit
Atul,
You should first try to run the report from the designer itself. As Shafqat 
mentioned, there should be a verify database and a refresh/update database 
option. The refresh/update option used to be in the older versions of Crystal 
Report (not sure if this is still there). If you are able to pull out the 
report, that would mean that your report's connectivity to the backend is fine. 
And that the issue is somewhere between the MT and Crystal Report engine. HTH.

You could also open the report in Crystal and do Verify Database. It is 
possible that the table name has been messed up in the report, so checking the 
database will fix the issue.

Good afternoon,

We are working on building requirements for an asset management project.  It 
looks like a lot of what we are going to need to focus on is less about true 
asset management, and more about the budgeting aspects of paying maintenance.  
We already use Asset Management to track contracts, licenses, etc., but we are 
going to need the ability to do budget forecasting and such, which doesn't seem 
to exist in any of the OOtB applications.  I know we can build something in ARS 
to tie in to the Asset Management data to do this, but I wanted to see if 
anyone here knows of a tool that is already out there that integrates with ITSM 
data for this purpose.

If you know of any Asset Management integrated budget forecasting tools, please 
let me know.

Thanks,

Re: mid-tier doesn't see crystal XI

2010-07-12 Thread Debnath, Prijit
AR System 7.6.03 (tentatively scheduled to release in late Summer 2010) is 
expected to have the ability to display basic list-based and graphical reports 
on the web client without the need to integrate Crystal / BOXI. We have 
introduced a new Reporting Engine which delivers this capability.  The embedded 
engine is designed to replace the legacy text-based reporting engine currently 
part of AR System 7.5.00 and earlier. In addition to this, an user will also be 
able to generate ad-hoc reports subject to permission constraints.

I'll add that I saw the same behavior, I ran 7.5 patch 004 of the mid-tier

properly in the mid-tier configuration. I hadn't changed anything from the 6th

This is entirely the fault of the mid-tier installer; I had so many problem of 
exactly this sort with the various patch levels of 7.1 that I ended up putting 
a 7.0.01.002 mid-tier on my CRXI/BOXI server.  I'm still using it in 
production!!  For my dev server I used 7.0.01.008.  I have been pointing my 
7.5.00.005 pre-production mid-tiers at that last one for testing... it works 
just fine since all the 7.0.01 mid-tier is doing is serving up the crystal 
report.

I have not tried to update the CRXI mid-tiers to 7.5, and gave up on later 
patches of 7.1 as the installers remained bug-ridden - trying to upgrade the 
mid-tier from 7.0.01 to 7.1 ignored and wiped out the report viewer.  CRXI is 
such a pain to install and license that once you get one running, AND a working 
mid-tier, I try to leave it alone.

I'd love to tell you that the BMC installers have improved in 7.5/7.6, but they 
have not.  This week's poster child for worthless installers is BMC Analytics 
7.6.01, which skips the entire dialog box set for specifying your db connection 
- much as the mid-tier installer fails to detect CRXI/BOXI and prompt to 
install the Crystal viewer.  All I can recommend is that you try every patch 
level of mid-tier that you can find until one works correctly; most of them are 
flawed.

answer your queries directly. A good place to start is the BMC Remedy Action

You want answers to these questions or an opinion on them?

No disrespect to Doug but question 4 is not relevant to how good someone
might be.

Some would be pretty much insulted if asked those questions so who is your
target interviewee? What sort of experience would they have?

Matt

Re: Installing RKM 7.5

2010-06-09 Thread Debnath, Prijit
Hi,
For RKM 7.5, the minimum version of Tomcat required is 5.5.x. The Compatibility 
Matrix is available 
herehttp://media.cms.bmc.com/documents/RKM_7_5_0_Compatibility_Matrix_24-03-091.pdf.

Also, for ARS, the minimum version of tomcat required is 5.5.28. The Comp 
Matrix is available 
herehttp://media.cms.bmc.com/documents/AR+System+7+5+00+Compatibility+Matrix+v1.0_31.pdf.


Traditionally, AR System supports the listed version of vendor products or 
higher, so Tomcat 6 should work.

Thanks,
Prijit Debnath

I haven't checked the compatibility matrix, but am wondering loud if Tomcat 6 
is compatible with RKM 7.5 or even ARS Mid-Tier for that matter?

I know that it works with Tomcat 5.5.25

Subject: Installing RKM 7.5

Hello,

I try to install RKM 7.5 patch 1 on Oracle 10g. I use jdk/jre 1.6 and Tomcat 
6.0. The installation succeeds, but the post_installation fails, when trying to 
connect to Oracle. I always receive an error 0RA-01017 (invalid user/password), 
though I am quite sure my password is correct. I tried the jdbc connection 
strings like : host:port:sid and also tried the full description coming 
from tnsnames.ora (description=(addresslist=...). I also tried to change the 
ojdbc*.jar file to more recent version in the lib directory of RKM, and in the 
lib directory of tomcat, I still get ORA-01017.

Any tip ?

Thanks a lot.

Re: Problem installing ARS7.5 patch3 ,Oracle 10g , Vista

2010-06-09 Thread Debnath, Prijit
Hi folks, 
I just want to highlight the fact that not supported doesn't mean it will not 
work. I will quote A R system's Compatibility Matrix here which clearly states -

Quote
Supported Configurations are those where the configuration is expected to work 
properly based on design, testing or general understanding of the interaction 
between products.  For supported configurations, BMC Customer Support will work 
with customers on an issue involving the configuration until either the issue 
is resolved or a defect / enhancement is logged.  

Configurations not listed may still operate properly with AR System and thus 
customers may choose to run AR System in a configuration not listed as 
supported.  Such configurations would be considered as unconfirmed.  
Unquote

Hope this helps.

 Kevin,
 Not that this directly addresses your questionbut I got 7.5 functional
 on XP running SQL 2008 Express last year...so if you aren't stuck on
 Oracle...SQL may work for you.

 Its been rather a long while since I've posted here... :)

 I am trying to install 7.5 on my Vista Home machine, but to date have been
 frustratingly unsuccessfull! I have another XP laptop with dual v5 and
 v6.3 installations on top of Oracle 9i, but as V7.5 isnt compatible with 
 10i
 or XP am using my newer Vista laptop.

 I opened a thread at BMC communities, had someone from BMC assist me for a
 while and then, when all his suggestions failed, just seemed to lose
 interest and never bothered responding further *smile, roll-eyes*

 Here is the thread... 
 http://communities.bmc.com/communities/thread/43194?tstart=0


 I been through everything I can think of - from checking oracle
 setup/tablespaces/aradmin user, listeners,etc..and still no go.

 Hopefully, someone out there has been successfull using the same OS/DB/ARS
 setup and can point me in the right direction!

 Thanks in advance

Hi List ,

 

Currently there is a problem in the Production server where the NTE:
Notifier Log has got 5 lakh Records and it keeps Increasing gradually.

 

As per the analysis there is a escalation wriiten in teh NTE: Notifier
[NTE:NTS:t...@00:30-CleanupNTS] which sets the Z1D Action to delete and a
filter deletes the record in the Notifier.

 

How does a record gets deleted in the NTE: Notifier Log .We see that
there is a filter [NTE:NTL:Delete_795]

has the run process to delete it . but the qualification is 'TR.z1D
Action' =  DELETE.

But i dont see any workflow pushes z1D Action' =  DELETE. in the  NTE:
Notifier Log .

 

Please advice.

 

Regards

Saravanan.
