Re: Kinetic Request

2010-07-22 Thread Parker, Lawrence T
Ramesh,

A Kinetic two-cents here.  We are using Kinetic V4.0.3 with ARS 6.3 over here 
and are happy with it.  Approx 800 users.  Set up to allow web submissions of 
Service Requests to active directory (i.e. Move User, Deactivate Account, etc). 
 Auto-generates Remedy Change Requests and Tasks.  The customers really like it 
and Kinetic support is terrific.

Hi All,

 

   We are currently on ARS 7.1 with our custom Help Desk application and we are 
evaluating SRM products (Kinetic Request, BMC SRM) for our Service Desk. 

   I have gone through the product videos available in the (Kinetic Request) 
website and it looks very interesting.

   I just want to hear the  experiences(pros, cons) you guys had in using 
Kinetic Request.

 

 Thanks,

Ramesh.

Unable to Report From Mid Tier ARERR 9246

2009-09-03 Thread Parker, Lawrence T
Hi,

We see the below trying to run reports from Mid Tier.  The BMC documentation 
and everything else we've researched indicates that we need to verify the 
report we are trying to run is still available in the Remedy Reports form.  Our 
reports are definitely in the Report form.  Has anyone out there found a way 
around this problem?  We did much diligence in trying to correct this issue 
before posting here.

ARERR [9246] 
Cannot find report [Ljava.lang.String;@10dd4c8 of type null for form {2} on 
server {3}. Please see your administrator.

Thanks Jason and Charles,

These are native .arr reports.  We corrected the issue by reimporting the 
ReportSelectionRun active link.  It was passing qualification but not doing 
anything.  I do appreciate your feedback.

Lawrence, can you clarify the type of report?  If it is a native report then we 
do not need to travel down the road of troubleshooting Crystal.

Also can you tell us what version of ARS and Mid-Tier you are using?

Hi,

The new value should auto-populate on the web services left-hand pane.  Right 
click in the right-hand pane and click New  Element.  Name the new element 
exactly what is displayed for your new field on the left and map it up.

Re: Dropping BMC Support

Another thing to consider is you will not be able to get license keys generated 
online should you need them.  If you make a server change and need licensing 
for it, you will have to coord a purchase with BMC.

Off the top of the head.
you loose support obviously
you loose the free ability to move servers (keys - licenses) you loose the 
upgrade software you loose the patches you loose more money -- if you come

This is correct, and it can be far-reaching.  At my current employer, 
we were looking into purchasing ITSM a few years ago.  Basically, BMC let us 
have it for paying back-maintenance from an old company.

 

So basically what happened is that Company E went sold off Company 
C and went bankrupt.  Company P merged with Company C and then both were 
purchased by Company S.  When we decided to purchase ITSM, our BMC sales rep 
found out that Company E had licensed ITSM in the past, and as a result we 
could get it for merely paying back maintenance for a for a few years, which 
was a whole lot cheaper than buying it new.

 

However, my point is that the reverse could also hold true.  If you 
drop support, even if your company gets bought out or something else happens 
that can be traced back to your current company, you risk being told to pay 
back maintenance if you want to ever restore it.

 

I would advise against dropping support unless your company is in 
absolute dire straits.

We are considering dropping our support contract with BMC. We've 
considered the implications of this as far tech support calls, licensing and 
new software releases.

 

Was wondering if anyone has experience with dropping support and what 
other issues might have come up besides the above mentioned items.

 

Thank you in advance.
