Re: Enum Field ID Changes
Axton, I thought that you would not have to renumber the enums in 7.0.1, because now you can choose the custom enum id option in enum fields.

Re: ITIL CERTIFICATION
Hello Dipti, The ITIL foundation certification exam is a multiple-choice computer based test, which can be taken at any EXIN / Prometric center. You can get info on exins website. I do not know where you are located, but in my location the charges are USD 600/- A 2 day training may be taken before the exam, which is charged seperately. In my opinion, if you have worked in the ITSM area for some time, then self study on a weekend before the exam is sufficient.

Use basic elimination techniques to rule out what is *not* a problem and look at the remaining suspects more closely. For example, if access through Remedy User from the same client PC is rather fast, the network is likely not an issue. If access using Remedy admin on the server itself is fast, then server side stuff including database is not an issue. Also, is it slow for others in your local network..for others in some other network? You get the idea. Another important question is whether it suddenly become slow or it has always been like this.

Re: A question for SLA module
** Hi, This looks like a defect to me. If you change the group to something for which the SLA does not apply, then the SLA itself would be removed. It should not remain 'In Progress'. If on the other hand, you have another SLA for the other groups, this one should now attach. For correct processing though, you should add both these SLAs to the same 'SLA Group'. Regards, Murtuza.

If the HD case change to "pending" or "resolved" the sla change to status "Pending" ok. But, what happens if the HD case is changed to other group that not are in the conditions of this SLA?? The SLA continues in "In Process" status. In order to solve this, I have changed the Exclude field: ("Pending" OR 'Status' = "Resolved") OR (('Assigned To Group+' != "GROUP-WINDOWS") OR (('Assigned To Group+' != "GROUP-UNIX"))With this I shall wait leave in pending status the SLA when the HD case was assigned to other group. This woks ok too, but in this point I have 2 news ways: 1. The new group works in the HD case and returns this case to the last groupThe sla changes first to "Pending" and from "Pending" to "In progress" when the HD case is returned. OK way solved. 2. The new group resolve the HD case, and more late the HD is ClosedIn this way, the SLA will be in Met or Missed status attached to the case, but this SLA is not correct because the group not belongs to the Terms and Conditions for this SLA.¿How can I solve this?

I haven't had a chance to go to CMDB training yet so I am learning as I go. Since asset management sits on top of the CMDB are there any issues or gotchas modifying the AST forms directly? For instance I added a new attribute to the Computer System class (Char field) using the class manager (not bad, the only custom data field we needed from AM 4). Now I need the new field to show up on AST:ComputerSystem. Since it is an AM form can I just add it to the AST join form in the admin tool without any problems? Is there any metadata that goes along with the AM module or just CMDB? Is making changes to the AST forms and workflow just like modifying a join form and workflow in the good old days? Deleting the AST form and using the CMDB2Asset utility to recreate it just doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling. As far as I have see so far the AM module is just added functionality to the CMDB but does not affect the CMDB itself (other then the data being stored in the CMDB).

Re: CMDB 1.1 Patch 2 or 3
Hi Michelle, Although I haven't installed patch 3, I might do it soon. But I didn't know you has to have patch 2 installed before it. One issue which Patch 3 was going to fix for us (we have a bug logged with BMC) was the square bracket Instance ID issue. Occasionally when CMDB generates an instance ID for a new class or attribute, it adds a [ or ] to the string. This causes all searches on the class to fail. We have had this happen atleast a dozen times and this was a crucial fix for us.
