**
Just wondering …

What are some of the big ARS environments (specifically the DB) out there?

What is DB type (Oracle, Microsoft, ???)
Number of DB servers in cluster
Total DB size
Number of simultaneous users ???
Number of tickets per day ??? (the major system(s) — not helper records)

Actually — I am really wondering — what is “normal” … what is “abnormal”.

Thanks and have a great day.

Re: ITSM 7.6.4 - Ticket Prefix

2011-07-18 Thread Kelly Gatewood
Claire,

If you happen to ever want to implement DSO and want to prevent duplicate 
request IDs on forms, you have to change the prefix on one of the servers.  It 
is documented on page 28 of the BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.6.04 - BMC 
Remedy Distributed Server Option Guide.

So in my opinion, this is not only recommended by BMC in certain instances, but 
is sometimes required and as such would have to be fully supported.

Thanks

Ø  I am hearing from some of my customers that BMC sales is claiming that all 
of the 7.6.04 applications are fully functional in BMC Remedy User 7.6.04.

I have heard no such statement, no.  I believe it is true that some forms not 
recently updated could be opened directly in the Remedy User client (e.g. by 
choosing them in the Object List) - but that would not mean all of the 7.6.04 
applications are fully functional in BMC Remedy User 7.6.04.  It is similar in 
nature to the fact that customers can continue to use the Remedy User client 
against custom applications or custom extensions because the UI and navigation 
technologies not recognized by the Remedy User client would not be in those 
forms.


Ø  a.) keep the classic views

Again, I've heard of no such statement.   Were something broadly desired by the 
majority of customers needed in the Best Practice views, I'd expect that the 
Best Practice views themselves would be updated to include such demand vs. 
continuing forward with classic views.   BMC, of course, may choose to continue 
shipping the classic views - but since classic views have been deprecated since 
early 2009, continuing to propagate them through future releases is unlikely, 
especially given the Statement of Direction.

You (or your customers) may wish to clarify such statements with the BMC sales 
individuals purported to have made them.

Re: SLM / Notification

2011-02-14 Thread Kelly Gatewood
Vianna,

Are these service targets in a group?

If not, it would seem that you need to configure both of the Service Targets to 
be a member of the same Service Target group.  If you do that, then when the 
condition for the first is no longer met, it will detach the service target and 
then attach the one which meets the current condition of the incident.

You might want to refer to page 44 of the Service Level Management 
Configuration Guide.

Ken,

I have personally worked on both of the configurations listed below.  I 
personally would wait and go with the 7.6.4 release that should be out soon.  
If that is not an option then I would choose the 7.6.3 platform as it has 64bit

Also, please note that over the last several versions BMC has made significant

We have been running several 7.1 patch 6 ARS, Solaris/Oracle 10g, and Linux 
Apache/Tomcat Mid-Tier systems for some time now.  They have been very stable 
in our production environment which hosts many custom applications for several 
of our customers (no ITSM).

We now need to set up some additional new ARS and ITSM instances.  They are 
required to be MS Windows with MS SQL Server database.  Question: would you 
consider it a little risky to go with the latest ARS and ITMS 7.6.3 version due 
to the fact that it has only been out for a couple of months?  Since 7.5 ARS 
7.6 ITSM has been out longer, do you think that is more likely to be stable and 
less problematic?

Thank you for your assessment regarding 7.6.3 ARS and ITSM.

instances of Tomcat.

This is from the BMC KM article 20018811.

In line 69, change

Connector acceptCount=100 connectionTimeout=2

disableUploadTimeout=true enableLookups=false

maxHttpHeaderSize=8192 maxSpareThreads=75 maxThreads=150

minSpareThreads=25 port=8080 redirectPort=8443/

to

Connector URIEncoding=UTF-8 acceptCount=100

connectionTimeout=2 disableUploadTimeout=true

enableLookups=false maxHttpHeaderSize=8192

maxSpareThreads=75 maxThreads=150 minSpareThreads=25

port=8080 redirectPort=8443/

In line 91, change

Connector enableLookups=false port=8009

protocol=AJP/1.3 redirectPort=8443/

to

Connector URIEncoding=UTF-8 enableLookups=false

port=8009 protocol=AJP/1.3 redirectPort=8443/

See if that helps.

Subject: RKIM 7.2 Kills Tomcat Service

Hi, 

Long story short I have been trying to get RKM 7.2 to work and play nicely
with my current midtier installation 

Midtier 7.1 patch 11
Windows 2003 server
Tomcat 5.5.25

Scenario 1
Installed RKM with separate Tomcat
moved .jar files to Tomcat common/lib dir

RKM works fine midtier works fine until you do an advanced search and it
kills Tomcat.

Scenario 2

Installed RKM and Midtier using same Tomcat with IIS integration
Midtier stays stable
RKM won't open admin pages get kms.web.controllers.AccessController:
Request is not secure, redirecting toservername in stdout.log file

Advanced searches still won't work

Any suggestions

Carin

Re: How To Track Floating HD licenses

2009-12-14 Thread Kelly Gatewood
Brian,

The ability to monitor ITSM application user licenses is not included with the 
OOTB products until version 7.x.  That being said, what I did to estimate the 
usage was too create a form which collected the users who submitted of modified 
a HPD:HelpDesk request.  I then created a flashboard to show me the count that 
had occurred in the last hour.

The main flaw in this logic is that this only account for the main Help Desk 
form and did not account for any of the other forms which are a part of this 
application.

I hope this helps.

Re: Current Host ID of ARS Server always changing

2009-12-11 Thread Kelly Gatewood
Kali,

Here is a KM from BMC on this issue.


This is an extract from an article discussion the Host ID issue on a

Windows 2008 Server:





When attempting to license the ARServer 7.5 on Windows 2008, the Current

Host ID value reported by the ARServer and displayed in the Add or

Remove Licenses form via the User Tool does not match the physical

address of any network card in the machine and changes each time the

server is rebooted.



Therefore, when licensing the machine this may work initially, but upon

reboot the Current Host ID value changes and the license will become

invalid.



The Current Host ID will always take the format of:

20524153



Note: This problem occurs on both physical machines and virtual machines

where ARS 7.5 is installed on Windows 2008.



The server uses SNMP calls to get the MAC addresses of network adapters

in the system and uses the first of these as the hostid.  For some

reason the SNMP calls used return many more entries than there are

physical adapters in the server and the MAC address of most of these are

dynamic and change on reboot.

Product

BMC Remedy AR System Server (version 7.5.00)

Environment

Windows 2008

Solution

The workaround is to ensure that the AR Server is licensed against the

MAC address of a physical network card and NOT the Current Host ID shown

in the User Tool.



The Windows AR Server will consider itself licensed if it has a valid AR

Server license for ANY MAC address on the system, even if this is not

displayed as the primary one.



Therefore, use ipconfig /all from a command line to get the MAC address

- eg;



Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :

   Description . . . . . . . . . . . : VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet

Adapter

   Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-50-56-96-38-BD



and use this value (removing the - symbols) as the Host ID for licensing

the AR Server, in this example it would be 0050569638BD (all letters

should be in capitals).





Please use this information to request the proper license for your

server. After you installed the AR server 7.5 again, license it, apply

the user and application licenses, and then install Atrium CMDB and the
ITSM suite.

This causes the license to become invalid, thus, we always have to reapply a

Hi

Yes, search based on selection of the INC status is what I was looking for.   
The results, I would want to become available in a drop down, kind of like the 
Operational tiers, when you select first tier the second becomes available.

Re: Selection Menu Question







**
While I think I more or less understand what you want to do, what exactly do 
you mean by 'filter out attributes of a selection field' ??

Are you looking to perform a search Based on the selection of the INC Status? 
So if 'In Progress' is selected do you want the system to return results that 
contain records that have the App Status of 'Approoved', 'Scheduled' and 
'BreakFix'??

If so depending on where you want that search result to be returned to, 
(Results List or Table Field) I do not think it is really hard to build an 
external qualification that does it?

Wouldn't you be looking at creating an external qualificaton that could be used 
in the table field or results list that would build the qualication against the 
App Status on selection of the INC Status? I think its as simple as that..

Or have I understood what you want to do wrong? Sorry more questions than 
answers - so if I have understood you wrong please try and explain what exactly 
you are aiming for..

Cheers

Joe

Hi List


Is it possible to setup an Active link to filter out attributes of a selection 
field drop down?
Heres the story.

I currently have on my Helpdesk form the INC Status field that has the normal 
status' and an APP Status field which has other Process status' for example.  
Approve, Scheduled, Awaiting release, Breakfix, Go-live, No-Go etc.

I also have another form with APP Status and INC Status.  I save entries of APP 
status with a particular INC status.
For Ex.
APP StatusINC Status
ApproveIn Progress
ScheduledIn Progress
BreakFixIn Progress
Awaiting  relPending
Go LiveResolved

Now I'm trying to get the APP status on the Helpdesk form to filter out what 
matches to the INC status that is selected.
Basically I should be able to select INC Status of In Progress and It should 
show me three items.
I think the selection field is the problem, I may need a character field 
instead and then map a menu to it.
Or continue with my AL somehow

Any ideas.
Thanks John

John,

A good example of this is how BMC handle the Status Reason field in ITSM 7.x.

They have the standard selection field (but it is hidden) and then have a 
character field with a menu (which has the values that you filter).

What happens, is when you choose the menu value, workflow then sets the 
appropriate value of the selection field.

Thanks

Thats Exactly what I was looking for.  Thankyou Kelly

Now my only other issue, the original APPStatus field on the Helpdesk form is a 
selection field instead of a character field.   Is there any way to convert the 
selection field to a character field so I can map out a menu to it?

Re: Selection Menu Question

Lyle,

The benefit that I personally see in the way that BMC implemented this is that 
the selection field contains all of the status reason values for all status 
selections.  In turn this would allow for status reasons to be shared across 
status values and also allow the programmer to fire workflow dependant upon the 
selection fields values.

For example:

Status Reason: Enhancement

Workflow could fire upon the selection of the this status reason regardless as 
to the actual status of the Incident.

You bring up something that I've been wondering about.  What's the point in 
having the hidden selection field for Status Reason?  What purpose does it 
serve that couldn't be met by simply storing the status reason, or using a 
character field to store it's Request ID, GUID, selection value, or whatever 
other unique key you want to use?  That way, it would be completely 
configurable and would not require both configuration and customization to add 
or remove status reasons.

Thanks,
Lyle

BMC sells a product named TMArt which does exactly what you describe.

Subject: Calculating Average Response time

**
All:

I have been asked to see if there is a way to capture an average response time 
for a production Remedy 6.3 application.  The response time considered is from 
the client and web perspective.

I would like to calaculate daily how long it takes to login, and transaction 
response times on an on going basis.  Usually this type of tracking is done 
against web applications.

Has anyone tried this and if so what are you using?

Thanks in advance.
