Re: Overlay follies: Selection fields

2011-12-01 Thread Richard Copits
Thank you for the explanationbut  here's another 2 cents worth from the 
other side of the aisle

At least to me it seems that Remedy is consistently released far sooner than it 
should be. It seems that there is
a very pronounced lack of QA testing before release. Witness all of the 
comments/bugs/fixes, etc. on this list.
I could point to many instances of this aside from my personal experience. I've 
had a lot of experience with
BMC support and it's incredibly frustrating and discouraging to always be told 
to send the log files and then
find out that after n days there's still no progress from the support folks - 
who again ask for more logs
and my ar.sys file.. then it's like pulling teeth to even get a 
callback..

The issue of the utility that was released is an example. Either the BMC folks 
who spec out what should be
released with a product to enhance user experience and usability really missed 
the mark or someone totally
missed the boat.

The product was released with a feature that was incredibly cumbersome to 
use. It's sort of like saying that
a new compiler was released with a new feature. The release folks say we 
know that this new feature is
very complex and powerful, but yes, we did release it with an editor to make 
the task of using it easier.
The customers say yes, but the editor was a hex editor.  The company says 
we'll release it with
a good text editor in the next releasebut it DOES have an editor.

Anywayjust some things to chat with the product release and QA folks 
about

Subject: Re: Overlay follies: Selection fields

I just thought I would share a few personal thoughts on this note.

First, I am the last person to say that we are perfect.  There are always going 
to be cases where
something is missed or where an error is made.  We attempt to minimize those 
situations, but we will
never be able to eliminate all possible errors.  Yes, there are times when it 
is a bit embarrassing to have
to admit that an error that was pretty obvious was made.  When these errors 
show up, we work to
correct them as aggressively as possible.

Second, in any product, or even feature of a product, there are always more 
things that you could have
done.  More capability.  More bells and whistles.  Better performance.  More 
scale.   If that was not
true, no product would ever need a 2.0 release because everything would be 
perfect the first time.

In this case, there is no product defect.  The product works.  You can overlay 
things.  They overlay
correctly.  The steps to perform the overlay are correctly documented, and you 
can get the result you
were looking for and that was designed for.

The problem is that use cases mean that there is a lot of work to do and a lot 
of steps to do that work.
And, it would be nice if there were fewer steps involved.  So, accelerators to 
make it faster would be
useful.

There was a utility developed that could offer that acceleration.  The product 
supports the addition of
these kinds of additions between release cycles - a FEATURE of the product to 
allow extension without
re-releasing the product.  A developer took advantage of the feature to allow 
extension and produced
a utility that offered the acceleration that was desired.  This was done at the 
time the customers were
having difficulty with the number of steps rather than waiting for a future 
release.

At the same time, there is work under investigation to see whether the 
condition that required the
operation to do many overlays could be completely avoided and become 
unnecessary to make the
operation even easier and even less impactful in the future.  There is a good 
idea of how to accomplish
that enhancement and it is likely to make a future release to further simplify 
operation of the system.

So, a short term assist immediately and work on a long term enhancement to 
further improve interaction.


In summary, the product was not unfinished in this case.  It was a fully 
finished set of capabilities and
they did in fact work as documented and provided the capability desired.  
Customer issues were
comments that it was harder than they would like and are there ways to make it 
easier.  A reaction was
to provide a utility that could be included within the product using features 
of the product designed to
allow for those additions and for API interaction with the system so that 
improvement could be made
for customers immediately.

So, I would humbly disagree with your assessment about bragging.  Personally, I 
tend not to brag about
the capabilities (I may be proud of them and excited that they help customers 
but I tend not to brag
about them - although I do tend to brag about the team and the overall job they 
do).  But if I was to
want to brag  What happened in this

Subject: Re: Software load balancer with AR Server and Mistier

** I believe you still need session persistence with the mid-tier in 7.6.  You 
do not (and have not really) required session persistence with the ARServer.  A 
whitepaper available for 7.6 details this.

The timeout on the load balancer needs to match or exceed the session timeout 
of your mid-tier application.
If you are using a single sign on solution the mid-tier session timeout needs 
to be less than or equal to the SSO session timeout.

So this would be a valid combination:
Mid-tier Session Timeout: 60 minutes
SSO Session Timeout: 120 minutes
Load Balancer Session Persistence Expiration: 60 minutes

In order for a J2EE application to not require session persistence a number of 
things have to be in place:
- all objects in the container must be serializable
- the container nodes in the farm must be configured as a cluster (session 
information must be serialized)

There are some things that make me believe this is not possible with the 
midtier.  Some information that is session specific is written to disk.  I 
doubt these can be properly replicated between the J2EE containers.

Subject: Re: Software load balancer with AR Server and Mistier

** http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/61/98/186198/186198.pdf

The information is a bit vague in regards to load balancer configuration in 
front of the midtier/web servers, but note that in the whitepaper, everywhere 
it says that session persistence is not required, it refers to it as the load 
balancer between the midtier and arservers or in front of the arservers.

The release notes make the following statement:
http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/43/74/184374/184374.pdf

New load balancer configuration options
If your AR System uses a hardware load balancer between the mid tier servers 
and AR System servers, BMC recommends configuring that load balancer without 
using a sticky bit by using the Connection Settings page in the BMC Remedy Mid 
Tier Configuration tool.

Note that it does not state to turn it off for the load balancer in front of 
the mid-tier.

You might be able to get away without setting up session persistence with the 
later versions of the midtier since the API does not have a native library 
dependency (assuming they implemented the serializable interface for all the 
non-native session specific things), but there is extra configuration you need 
to do with your J2EE container.  For Tomcat, see here:

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/cluster-howto.html

To run session replication in your Tomcat 6.0 container, the following steps 
should be completed:
- All your session attributes must implement java.io.Serializable
- Uncomment the Cluster element in server.xml
- If you have defined custom cluster valves, make sure you have the 
ReplicationValve defined as well under the Cluster element in server.xml
- If your Tomcat instances are running on the same machine, make sure the 
tcpListenPort attribute is unique for each instance, in most cases Tomcat is 
smart enough to resolve this on it's own by autodetecting available ports in 
the range 4000-4100
- Make sure your web.xml has the distributable/ element
- If you are using mod_jk, make sure that jvmRoute attribute is set at your 
Engine Engine name=Catalina jvmRoute=node01  and that the jvmRoute 
attribute value matches your worker name in workers.properties
- Make sure that all nodes have the same time and sync with NTP service!
- Make sure that your loadbalancer is configured for sticky session mode.

So even with Tomcat cluster configurations the load balancer must have session 
persistence.  I imagine the strategy with the above statements is to support a 
session moving from one node to another node in the event a node fails, not to 
simply allow any random request to go to any node.

Again, the J2EE container cluster configuration may or may not work.  I can't 
find anything stating experimentation either way.

** I believe you still need session persistence with the mid-tier in 7.6.  You 
do not (and have not really) required session persistence with the ARServer.  A 
whitepaper available for 7.6 details this.

The timeout on the load balancer needs to match or exceed the session timeout 
of your mid-tier application.
If you are using a single sign on solution the mid-tier session timeout needs 
to be less than or equal to the SSO session timeout.

So this would be a valid combination:
Mid-tier Session Timeout: 60 minutes
SSO Session Timeout: 120 minutes
Load Balancer Session Persistence Expiration: 60 minutes

In order for a J2EE application to not require session persistence a number of 
things have to be in place:
- all objects in the container must be serializable
- the container nodes in the farm must be configured as a cluster (session 
information must be serialized)

There are some things that make me believe this is not possible with the 
midtier.  Some information that is session specific is written to disk.  I 
doubt these can be properly replicated between the J2EE containers.

Storage is in the SANS.  Each server is virtual.  The next phase we may 
implement Incident Management / Change Management.  What is a reasonable size 
for RAM and Hardware? I thought 64 Bit should be at least 8G RAM.  The users 
are saying the documentation says minimum requirements of 4G RAM.  What are 
your thoughts in terms of RAM?  What would drive the sizing? Are there some 
metrics that would help us to better calculate the size?

The documentation stated that it should be 3.0GHZ.

Well, since AR System 7.1.00, there are no longer license keys for users, 
applications or modules - so it is a trick question and the answer is none.

However, if you meant licenses, then there are two business licenses 
associated with the Service Management Specialist:


1.   AR System User

2.   SRM Analyst / Admin

Since SRM uses the AR System user for its license checks (i.e. there is no SRM 
application user license technically within the system), the Service Management 
Specialist would enable the entering of an additional count in the AR System 
User fixed/floating row while in the Add/Remove License console.  The number 
would be a one-to-one correlation of the number of SM Specialist licenses 
purchased... so if you bought 5, you would enter (or add) 5 to the count of the 
AR System User license row.

1.)Does it contain the words Service,Management, or Automation  (if

2.)Can it be represented in a 3-5 letter acronym that is earily similar to

3.)Has it been renamed in the last 6 months (if no, rename immediately. 
This applies to existing product portfolio as well)

4.)Is it completely unrelated to the legacy name that is well known in the

Hi Enslin!

If this is a production environment, rather put your DB on a physical host - 
especially if you need high throughput and/or reliability and/or good 
performance.

(Otherwise, suffer in silence...)  :-)

One reliable, good performing VM environment would be Solaris/Oracle, but you 
are using Micro...t.
We've had to solve some serious problems on 7.6.4 recently relating to running 
the DB on a VM (Bad Performance and serious system outages).
It's OK to run everything else in a VM, but the DB should rather be on a 
physical host if you want best performance  reliability.
If you use these servers for Dev or QA, I'd say, you can run the DB on a VM, 
but be prepared for bad performance.

Alternatively, If you absolutely have to stick to these VM's, install Remedy 
directly on the SQL box and beef up the RAM to 16Gb or more. Then use the old 
APP VM for Mid-Tier  AIE on 8Gb RAM.
You won't gain extreme amounts of performance, but this split should give best 
possible performance within that specific configuration set.

Also test your network and disk setups to see if they are performing optimally, 
as disk and network could also have a huge impact on performance.


Best Regards,
Theo

Your problems are severe enough that I went back to my old emails with support 
from 20 months ago.

Looking back to Feb 2010, here was the “resolution” on my fight with the 
7.5.00.002, 003, and 004 installers.  It was compounded by the problems I 
reported in Oct 2009 where the email account, formerly entered as domain in one 
field and login name in another in the install dialog box, and properly 
assembled by the installer into domain\loginname to install the service and 
build the mailbox configuration records, now required that you enter 
domain\loginname together in the login field (in addition to domain in the 
other dialog box field).  Because I did not do this, the installer could not 
create the service because it was trying to use an account that did not exist 
on the server (there was no local user for loginname, only a domain\loginname 
in the Administrators Group).

BTW, in 7.6.03 and 7.6.04 they “fixed” this so that what ends up in the config 
record is domainloginname (with no “\”) and of course it cannot log in (either 
MAPI or POP) to the mail server.  At least it was used correctly to install the 
service, so I don’t understand the problem with their installers.  It looks 
like it is completely fixed in 7.6.04 SP1, but I’ll need to see a few more 
successes to be convinced.


INCIDENT: ISS03574638



ISSUE: After applying patch 003 to an ARS 7.5.00.002 server (upgraded from 
7.1.00.002 much earlier), the AREMail service is no longer installed.  There is 
no Windows service, although the files exist.  Re-running the 7.5.00.003 
installer does not repair it.



RESOLUTION: Defect # SW00357200 Created.

I do not know if you are using MAPI or POP, but when it comes to the creation 
of the Email service that does not matter.  If you are using a domain account – 
a requirement with MAPI and a good idea with POP if you are using Exchange for 
mail, the 7.5 installers never got that right.

Apparently it is located deep in the bowels of the knowledge base and requires 
customization and is officially
unsupported…..but it works. If anyone is interested in it, I’ll be happy to 
send it offline – probably on Monday as
I’m not in tomorrow.

Subject: Re: Email not working... any suggestions?

Your problems are severe enough that I went back to my old emails with support 
from 20 months ago.

Looking back to Feb 2010, here was the “resolution” on my fight with the 
7.5.00.002, 003, and 004 installers.  It was compounded by the problems I 
reported in Oct 2009 where the email account, formerly entered as domain in one 
field and login name in another in the install dialog box, and properly 
assembled by the installer into domain\loginname to install the service and 
build the mailbox configuration records, now required that you enter 
domain\loginname together in the login field (in addition to domain in the 
other dialog box field).  Because I did not do this, the installer could not 
create the service because it was trying to use an account that did not exist 
on the server (there was no local user for loginname, only a domain\loginname 
in the Administrators Group).

BTW, in 7.6.03 and 7.6.04 they “fixed” this so that what ends up in the config 
record is domainloginname (with no “\”) and of course it cannot log in (either 
MAPI or POP) to the mail server.  At least it was used correctly to install the 
service, so I don’t understand the problem with their installers.  It looks 
like it is completely fixed in 7.6.04 SP1, but I’ll need to see a few more 
successes to be convinced.


INCIDENT: ISS03574638



ISSUE: After applying patch 003 to an ARS 7.5.00.002 server (upgraded from 
7.1.00.002 much earlier), the AREMail service is no longer installed.  There is 
no Windows service, although the files exist.  Re-running the 7.5.00.003 
installer does not repair it.



RESOLUTION: Defect # SW00357200 Created.

I do not know if you are using MAPI or POP, but when it comes to the creation 
of the Email service that does not matter.  If you are using a domain account – 
a requirement with MAPI and a good idea with POP if you are using Exchange for 
mail, the 7.5 installers never got that right.

I had problems with many of the various 7.5 patches with them clobbering the 
email engine and/or failing to reinstall the service.  One of the main reasons 
that I skipped 7.5.  I don't remember the 7.5 installer being able to uninstall 
it properly, either, so that you could add it back in.  Looking at my notes, I 
had to uninstall everything ARS, which is probably not an option for you.  I 
recall that one of support's suggestions was to install it on a different 
server (at which point I declared 7.5 DOA and waited for 7.6.03), and that 
might give you a quick fix until you can find a more permanent solution.  Don't 
do it on a mid-tier server - it's the same monolithic installer that didn't 
work properly until 7.6.03, and you  might get a good mail server but clobber 
your mid-tier!

It appears as if the MS2003R2 server that our system is living on is going to
be renamed. Will this require us to do a full reinstall in order to accommodate
the new name or can we just edit the ar.cfg file  and change the server name
there after the platform is renamed?
Same with the database name

I created a PERL script to parse the API logs into separate files by threadid. 
I then walked each file and calculated the difference between the start and end 
of a transaction. From what I can tell it is accurate and I have been able to 
pull some very nasty end user SQL.

If anybody is interested I will share the PERL script.

Hi,

None of these are actually 100% sufficient.

Some databases gives you an end-tag, but some do not.

If you put FLTR/ESCL/API/SQL into the same file, you can track the thread
and see when a call stopped by looking at the following row of the thread.

Sometimes though, internal things in the ARServer takes time that is not
possilbe to track...

 Frank,
 SQL Queries are correlated via TID (Thread ID).  If you look for a
 specific
 query, and then look for the next instance of that thread ID the line
 should
 be 'OK'...the OK is the end of the SQL Query.  If you are looking to
 perform
 general SQL timing, there are a number of tools on the BMCDN that will
 parse
 API/SQL logs and give you lots of good statistics.  Contact me offline if
 you need specifics.

This is a remedy-oriented mutual assistance list - and not sponsored by any

opinion is that it should stay free of blatant recruiting ads - as well as 
blatant sales pitches. If a company
ad reference is short and in your signature line and you contribute to the

When we use Reminders and enter a user name and press Enter, it does a default

If it doesn't find a match for the string starting from the beginning of the

for Smith and there is no name beginning with Smith - no match. What we'd

Subject: Re: Spell checker comments

We use JSpell and we actually wrapped it with another dialog to make it easier 
to use.  Usually, you have to add header code and footer code to every form 
that uses it and enter in the specific field IDs, etc.  We wrapped it with a 
spell checker dialog so you can simply pass the text in and it passes it on to 
JSpell.  After the spell check, you can choose to abandon the changes or accept 
them and push them back.  It really simplified usage everywhere we were calling 
it since you simply perform a Windows Open action on your own form and pass in 
the field to check.

JSpell is simply Javascript code and when we first received it, it actually had 
a bad line of code which I had to track down and fix.  The company went out of 
business about a year after we purchased it so I don't know if it is still even 
available.  We were told we no longer had to pay annual license fees (which 
were real cheap anyway and the initial cost was less than $500) once they went 
out of business.

It's not real fancy but you can change the look and feel and you could easily 
customize it.  It works pretty well on the midtier and we've been using it for 
about three years.  You can change the dictionary and it also uses 
customer-stored dictionaries.

If you can get your hands on it, you could evaluate it and see if you can make 
it work.  It's was a very cheap way to add this capability to web-based items.

That is true.. Problem is usually something that has more of a global effect, 
effecting more than just 1 person. A single persons problem even if it is the 
same problem each time is generally treated as an incident, unless there is a 
genuine reason for it to be classified as a problem..

And most problems are generally addressed by a change..

Dear list members,

I am learning to use JAWS in an effort to provide support to a No Vision
user.  We hope to gain valuable lessons in making our application more
navigable.  I am focusing on access via the Mid-Tier, as this seems to be
where JAWS provides the best navigation tricks.

This task is quite an experience as I read BMC documentation, goto JAWS and
struggle with what really works.  I have found a few deficiencies, but am
in no way hitting all aspects of our application.  I have found the
document 'Designing BMC Remedy applications for Section 508 compliance.pdf'
quite valuable and at times confusing.

If anyone has blazed this path before me and generated helpful tips in
navigating objects like the Results List, Tables and Menu Lists, would you
be willing to share?

I haven't approached BMC yet concerning issues I found; that generally
never goes well ;)

Thanks for your time.

Richard,
There are plenty of ways to do this. One of them is implementing DSO 
(Distributed Server Object) server. Based on configuration, DSO can move data 
from 1 server to another instantaneously. More information can be found in 6.3 
documentation(DSOAdminGuide-630.pdf).

Thanks
Chintan.

We need to copy data from one server to another

but have a few questions…such as is the migrator

robust/reliable enough to do it, and at what version

and patch level? Is there a specific procedure that we

need to follow/a particular order to have the best

chance for success? Any/all help/suggestions/cautions

2010-07-27 Thread Richard Copits
The server is local – about 20 feet away.

I was told that copying via an SQL database copy wouldn’t work due to mac 
addresses being copied from
the old to the new database, etc. – hence it seemed like Migrator would be the 
way to go….but that’s a
guess – hence asking on the list…..

Richard,

What is the purpose of copying this data? Depending on that your tools and 
hence the method would vary..

DSO is for copying data to 'follow the sun' to ensure business continuity 
irrespective of the time locally in case you have global operations.

DB / system Replication is another alternative. For replication there is more 
than one method and your choice really depends on the resources available.

How about:

1. Have you actually worked on a Remedy system? Describe what you did.

2. Will you work for low pay, no benefits, no retirements and no health 
coverage?

3. Which way would you implement a project - the best practices way or 
managements way?

4. Why couldn't you get another job?

5. Why should we not hire you?

How do you apologize for something you did not do?

Do you get along with others?

Do you show up on time?

If you work on a problem for 12 hours - and it should have been 1 hour -- how

Not all questions should be technical in nature.


And the above are probably harder than the below.

Strange fat client behavior...

2010-05-20 Thread Richard Copits
We have a 7.5 system with the AR sever on one box and the mid-tier on another. 
We just
reinstalled the mid-tier to work with IIS. The lan folks installed a 
certificate on the IIS server
so we can use HTTPS. All of the web parts work fine. However, when we use the 
fat client
to access the arserver and go into the incident management console selection we 
get a
certificate error. Why is the fat client doing anything with the web stuff? 
Any thoughts?

Most of the 7.6 consoles now contain flashboards - in the KPI tabs.  Some did 
in 7.5, as well as in 7.0.  The web path you have set in Server Information 
might need to be changed from http to https to use the certificate correctly.  
Careful though mine was set to https and when we installed the 7.5.00.004 
User Tool it was unable to recognize an https web path (patch 003 and earlier 
did just fine) and would hang the user tool as soon as you hit a console or 
form with a flashboard.  After multiple attempts, the latest patch 005 
candidate they sent me appears to have fixed the problem.

Richard,
I don't use the ITSM Suite...but does that console contain any 
flashboards?those are rendered through the MidTier, and as such, needs to 
do something with the certificate.

**
We have a 7.5 system with the AR sever on one box and the mid-tier on another. 
We just
reinstalled the mid-tier to work with IIS. The lan folks installed a 
certificate on the IIS server
so we can use HTTPS. All of the web parts work fine. However, when we use the 
fat client
to access the arserver and go into the incident management console selection we 
get a
certificate error. Why is the fat client doing anything with the web stuff? 
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!

Jakarta redirector...

2010-05-17 Thread Richard Copits
We want to start using IIS and apparently need to install a Jakarta Redirector 
set of files.
Is there an install program for this as it seems to make some registry changes. 
I'm assuming
that we have to get it at the Apache Software Foundation web site ? Thanks 
for any help
or advice...

Hello,

You are correct in stating you require mod_jk to integrate IIS with
Tomcat.  There doesn't appear to be any official installer for mod_jk, and
a range of tutorials exist online - here's one:

http://community.jboss.org/wiki/UsingModjk12WithJBossAndIIS

You can download mod_jk from here:

http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/

I also believe the BMC Midtier install will configure it for you.

Folks, I hate to have to write this, but I think that someone has been trolling 
the ARSlist in the wild and using information for possible fraud.

I started getting phone calls early this morning from people looking for me.  
They had all received spam that evidently has my name and phone number 
attached.  The emails all come with the subject line of :  $1500_Wired to Your 
Bank_in 1 Hour!

The reason I suspect that they gained the information from the list is that it 
is the only place that I can think of that has by email/phone number/name all 
in one place (the phone number is unlisted).  This is a guess on my part, but 
given the fact that the list is easily searchable from the web, it seems rather 
likely.

I share this with you as it occured to me that IF I was correct about where the 
info came from, it could be happening to others on the list to.

This is meant just as a warning.  It is a sign of the times we live in.

Warren

With version 7.1 you get the option when installing the mid-tier to use IIS, 
Tomcat alone or Apache and Tomcat or some other Web Server/Servlet engine 
combination. I presume the same is true for 7.5 and 7.6.

When installing with IIS the installer adds an ISAPI dll into IIS this services 
the redirection from IIS to Tomcat for those pages that IIS does not know about 
i.e. .jsp. Its all very straightforward. Once installed you can use it directly 
without additional fiddling. There are some things you can tune which I would 
suggest you use.

To use HTTPS on IIS install a script that traps the page not found message on 
HTTP and issue the redirect, there is loads of examples on the web.

The question should really be why use IIS at all - Tomcat can be configured to 
accept HTTPS and encrypt the channel, also IIS/Tomcat is the worst combo for 
performance. Tomcat alone outperforms the combo by up to 20%.

Re: Change from Tomcat to IIS - how?

2010-03-23 Thread Richard Copits
We actually have both. We installed Tomcat but the IIS was on the server. Can 
we configure
Tomcat to talk to/go through IIS? They want to use HTTPS and a certificate 
on IIS so 
that the connections are secure.

Are you using Tomcat only or IIS and Tomcat on the server?  You will never be 
able to remove Tomcat as IIS is not a JSP Engine (IIS cannot process Java 
server pages which is what MidTier uses) unless you switch to another supported 
JSP engine.

We have 7.5 and use incident mgt. and use Tomcat on our web server. Just as we 
have it running
well, management says that we have to switch from using Tomcat to using IIS.

My questions are: Do we have to do  a rebuild of the midtier web server for

Can anyone tell me where I can find the steps needed to do this (and any

Fred is correct.  You still need a JSP engine to work with your IIS.
There are other supported JSP Engines.  You cannot use IIS alone.

Hi Christopher,
Here is something else to try that I ran into.

If this is the Developer Studio tool, Did you change the devstudio.ini file 
settings for the max memory to with 
-Xms1280m
-Xmx1280m

That will crash it for sure if the values are too high.

If your using the original tool than you may need to reinstall because of a 
corrupt dll.

Greg,

ARInside was built with an older API and likely does not recognize a lot
of
the information that it's pulling in from your 7.5.x server... I,
unfortunately, would not trust it, nor expect it to work, against a
7.5.x

Just my thoughts,

I'm not sure about the documentation, but I will share one thing that I 
learned.  While all of the servers will have a common alias that outside 
clients will use to connect to the server group (hopefully), you don't want the 
flashboards and e-mail services hitting the alias.  When you install those, you 
should point them to the specific AR server that you want them working with.  
So, for example, if your server group alias is Remedy, and it is comprised of 
the servers ServerA and ServerB, the e-mail engine installed on ServerA should 
be configured to point to ServerA and not Remedy.  Same for flashboards.

Good morning,

I am beginning to set up the second server that will then be configured in a 
server group.  The primary server is up and running as follows:

Windows 2003 Server
Oracle 10 DB (remote)
ARS 7.1 P6 - including email, approval, assignment, flashboards
CMDB 2.1 P4
AIE 7.1 P4
ITSM 7.0.3 P7
SLM 7.1 P1

I have successfully installed ARS 7.1 P6 (server only) on the secondary server 
using the shared DB option.  This is working as well.

My next steps are the various other components:  email, approval, etc.  Sadly, 
I have found very little in the way of instructions on this.  Some components 
have more than others...very inconsistent.

My question is...does BMC or somebody have a comprehensive white paper or 
instruction set that addresses installation of the other components like email.

Re: Installing Secondary Server in Server Group

2009-03-19 Thread Richard Copits
I guess I sort of  agreebut I'm not sure about the email part.  We have 
other applications that
Have a load balancer and each has an email ability. For example, we have two 
servers, such as servera
And serverb but if you try to access one you're vectored to the load 
balancer serverx automagically,
so that you are never really able to get to a or b unless the load balancer 
is shut down 

It just seems that it would make sense to have duplicate servers that access a 
common database, and
A common email backend

It's good to hear about these issues since we may be doing this in the not too 
distant future, and there's
A lack of gotchas to keep a person out of the minefields...

Subject: Re: Installing Secondary Server in Server Group

Which server does e-mail or flashboards processing (not regular flashboards 
processing - that is, displaying flashboards - that happens in the mid-tier, 
but the processing that the flashboards server does) is determined by a 
server's server group ranking.  If you've got things behind a load balancer and 
you have your e-mail engine getting to your AR servers through the load 
balancer, there's no guarantee that any of the e-mail engines will be hitting 
the AR server that is supposed to be processing e-mails, so e-mail processing 
may or may not work depending on which server your e-mail engine hits - in 
essence, you've just potentially broken the capability that a server group 
gives you for moving operations to another server if one of them goes down, 
etc.  In addition, what if more than one e-mail engine hits the same server?

However, if you have the e-mail engine running on all servers in the group, and 
they point to the server they're running on, whenever that server is supposed 
to do e-mail processing, you know that that e-mail engine will process e-mails, 
and the other ones won't.  That way, you can leave them all running and get 
true automatic failover when you take down one of your servers.

Does that make sense?

Actually, that could cause problems if one server goes down.  The other won't 
be able to correctly pick up the work for those items where you've specifically 
set up the down server.  We use the server group/load balancer name for email 
and flashboards as well as web services, etc. and it all works fine.

Pretty sure that the forms are not part of any deployable

Is there a way to cause the default groups we now have to appear?

Is it possible that the def files contained forms that are part of a
deployable application?  If so...does that deployable application have
any roles defined to map to groups on your server?...this is likely your
culprit.

We're on 7.1 and have done an import of several def files. But, when I
go into the admin tool and look at the form permissions, there are

None in the leftmost pane. What did we do wrong or what do we need to do
to be able to see permissions in this pane? Other forms that

Are installed by default have the permissions visible - seems like only
the defs we imported don't. We're puzzled. ??? Thanks.

Re: Suggestions wanted for backing up....

2009-03-04 Thread Richard Copits
Thanks Joe. we're using a VM and have thought about using snapshots,
but if the server fails then the snapshot

Is gone also...unless we move the snapshot off to another sever.. but
the gating factor for me is how long the

Service desk is willing to be down if I have to rebuildand I
estimate that it could take three or four days to do

That, patch everything, etc. 

 

I think I'm going to be looking at something like Ghost that will image
the server and everything. After imaging

I can move the image to another server so it's relatively safe. A
product like Acronis will allow me to make a

Master backup and then ongoing differential backups,  so that may be a
good solution.

Hi Richard,

 

We have a similar situation. I have no idea of how Tivoli operates but
we are using a network backup product called NetBackup. Having had the
unfortunate experience of having to recover from a hardware failure, I
got the bad news that the backup guys could not create a server in the
state of the last successful backup, they could only dump data contained
in the directories. So I had to do a full OS install with all the apps
etc and them took specific data contained in the backups and used it,
like the AR licensing, config etc. This took me nearly a week. To say
that the business was not happy would be an understatement.

 

There are a few virtual products availabe, we are now moving to the
VMWare environment. This now brings along the possibilities of snap
shots. This means that if your vm server instance dies, using the snap
shot you basically have an image of it and it can be used to rebuild the
exact server as it was (at the time of the snap shot). Having a snap
shot is great but I believe that it requires the same space allocation
that the original server has. This is where I am having a battle with my
server guys.

 

You could also look at server groups. Having more than one app server
under a load balancer would allow you to operate on the balance of the
servers if one was to become inoperable. It's a cash thing though.

 

I have put the ball back in the businesses court requesting that they
need to determine the max downtime of a critical service and then based
on that, what are they prepared to pay to make it possible, or pay in
penalties.

We’re on windows…..but it would seem that backing up the registry would also 
catch a lot

Of “transitory” data that wouldn’t really be of any use and just take up space.

It may be very useful to know if you are on Windows or UNIX..

 

If you are on UNIX, backing up the file structure where the ARS is installed 
along with the backup of /etc/arsystem directories and the /etc/rpc file is 
more than enough.

 

Also it would be useful to backup the 2 .cat files in the UNIX catalog 
directories..

 

If you are on windows you might have to backup your registry besides just the 
install path.

Hi Richard,

 

You want to set a separate start page for a set of users. This is
something that I tried last year and found:

 

1.  For web you just need to go to AR User Preferences and on Home
Page tab set the Form Name as start page. For this you have to create
entries in case profile does not exist. Modify all option can be used.
2.  For User tool, you have to set the home page seperately on end
user machines. For that you may send them the guidelines to configure
the Home Page.

Hope this will help you!

Movement of SQL instance.....

2009-02-04 Thread Richard Copits
I've been told that we will have to move our SQL database instance from
one SQL server to another. From

What I've read it looks like all I have to do is to bring down the
Remedy server, edit the ar.cfg file and put

 the name of the new instance In in place of the old, then have the
database folks move the instance. Is

this true  or have I missed something? We have 7.1 and separate app and
web servers. However, it doesn't

look like there are any changes/edits that I need to make on the web
server. Does this sound right? Thanks!!

May I add/suggest that db owner be double checked after moving it also.
Name/Password of AR system SQL account needs to be the same as old SQL
server, or corrected in configuration, or AR won't connect.
 
I beat my head against a wall once until I remember that.

This suggests your server is unlicensed, perhaps it is a trial one that
has expired?  Unlicensed servers have a 2000 record per form limit.
