Re: Remedy Developer Performance Metrics

Shawn, We had a similar requirement, the only difference being the confidentiality was supposed to be in the worklog instead of the Help Desk form.

Re: SSO / AREA LDAP question
The Bmc OOTB SSO Plugin is very easy to break since it only depends on http header authentication. It has nothing to do with LDAP or AD. the scenario changes if you use the basic SSO with site minder or an external authentication plugin with a hub. The best way you can start troubleshooting the issue is to turn ON debug logging on the plugin and turn ON your plugin logs on the server and identify the API calls when the account gets locked. We use JSS SSO plugin and cannot be happier with the support and the security features of the product. Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese. .

Re: HELP - ITSM 7 email engine won't run
Eli, Did you check the incoming/outgoing Pop3/SMTP account and check if they are working fine? Looks like you did not miss anything however you can turn on debug mode on the email engine Try turning on logging: The logging.properties file can be found in the $JAVA_DIR/lib directory. The values that are valid are SEVERE, WARNING, INFO, CONFIG, FINE, FINER, FINEST and ALL. Anything lower than CONFIG is mainly just used for debugging purposes (it is VERY, VERY verbose). The value must be entered in UPPER case. You will need to restart your emaild daemon for this change to take effect (emaild.sh stop as armonitor should restart it). To increase your logging level in the logging.properties file, open the logging.properties file and add or modify the following lines to read: handlers=java.util.logging.FileHandler,java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler com.remedy.arsys.emaildaemon.ARSystemHandler.level=FINEST com.remedy.arsys.emaildaemon.level=FINEST handlers= java.util.logging.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINEST To enable debug mode, add this option to the line that starts the Java process in the emaild.sh script, then stop and start the email engine: -Dmail.debug=true Change from: exec ${JAVA_BIN}/java -Djava.library.path=${InstallPath} -cp ${CP_PATH} com.remedy.arsys.emaildaemon.EmailDaemon -d ${InstallPath} >${LogFile} 2>&1 To: exec ${JAVA_BIN}/java -Djava.library.path=${InstallPath} -Dmail.debug=true - cp ${CP_PATH} com.remedy.arsys.emaildaemon.EmailDaemon -d ${InstallPath} >${LogFile} 2>&1 After turning the debug logs Try to add a maximum heap size, you must add the following code to the registry: Key: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Remedy Email Engine\Parameters Tag: JVM Option Number 2 Value: -xm You must also modify the JVM Option Count from 2 to 3 Hopefully this will give you some insights on what exactly is happening.

This would clear any notifications that are stuck if this does not solve the problem delete all the records in the notification log form and NTE:Notifier form, that should definitely fix this problem. do let me know how it goes.

Re: Email Engine Attachments
Dear Craig, Looks like the attachment gets converted to winmail.dat file on the microsoft exchange incoming mailbox before it reaches remedy, this normally occurs if you have html formatting, however I am still confused, since you have already mentioned that you were receiving emails in plain text format. One solution to the problem is to visit http://www.biblet.com and download the WMDecode program found there. This will at least allow you to decode the winmail.dat files and extract any useful attachments from them. Other than this, there's not much you can do on your end to fix the problem, since it's not your email program generating the problem. If you just don't want to deal with the problem, the other approach is to reply to the individual who sent you the offending email and ask that they re-send the message, with the attached files, as a plain text message, not in Rich Text Format or HTML. *This is what microsoft says : * To resolve this problem, use the plain text format. To do this: 1. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click Mail Format. 2. In Compose in this message format, click to select Plain Text, and then click OK. NOTE: To send to certain recipients that use RTF format and others recipients that use plain text format, you must set the option for the recipient in either the Personal Address Book or the recipient's contact record. Use the following steps to remove the RTF format from the recipient attribute in the Personal Address Book: 1. On the Tools menu, click Address Book. 2. In Show Names From, click the Personal Address Book. 3. Select the addressee that you want to set as plain text, and then click Properties on the File menu. 4. In the SMTP-General tab, click to clear the Always send to this recipient in Microsoft Exchange rich text format check box, and then click OK. Use the following steps to set plain text in the recipient's contact record: 1. Open the recipient's record in the Contacts folder. 2. Double-click the recipient's e-mail address. 3. In the E-Mail Properties dialog box, click Send Plain Text only under Internet Format. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278061 Hope this helps Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 11/21/07, Jason Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ** > > Hi Craig, > > > > I saw this a few years ago.

Re: SSO on the Midtier
Dear Tai D, I have highlighted the steps below - You need a custom SSO plugin on the midtier and changes to your config.properties file which would now point to this SSO plugin for authentication instead of default authentication. - You need the another plugin on your ARS server which would help you to authenticate the users who came in through the midtier with some condition say the Midtier Ip Address with an entry of the plugin in the ar.cfg file so that plugin server loads the plugin. There is so much more to it, did you already implement SSO on the midtier you can start with these let me know if you require any more information.

Re: CMDB's BMC_Person class: usage?
Hey Bob, I beleive the BMC_Person class stores information about the people who manage and depend on the other CIs in your environment. The First question you need to ask yourself depending on your environment is Can People be Configuration Items in your environment? According to me the answer is an overwhelming "yes." People can and should be CIs because they represent an organization's human assets. Therefore, the CMDB should include data about the relationship of an event to the business customers who rely on a service, as well as the relationship of an event to the personnel required to resolve it in the incident management process. This relationship information relies upon data about People CIs. Because a person's functions can change often, all of this information can get complicated. If someone gains additional technical certifications, that person can now assist on different types of events. Maintaining People CIs in your CMDB can help keep all the information straight. You might argue that most of these attributes and relationships are already maintained in ITSM 7 using the People form however I believe that CMDB is the right way to maintain these relationships which of course would be a painful process for every company to go through and because of which I guess BMC has given us an option of venting our thoughts of implementing the right CMDB with ITSM 7.

Re: ARS7 install with oracle 10G RAC ... the saga continues ...
This is what Tony is talking about the response we got from support Question : What is the average Remedy service startup time for an ITSM 7 OOTB Application on a Oracle 10 g Box There is no simple answer for this question. There are a number of factors that would effect the time taken. However a ball park figure of between 5 and 10 minutes would be reasonable. Please let me know if this answers your question. Thanks, Would it be possible for you to send me the list of factors affecting the service startup time on Oracle since some of my friends have the same config on an SQL box and they say their service startup takes less than a minute. Any help would be higly appreciated. Thanks Roney == Unfortunately, there is no benchmark spec for this as there are many variations of install. However, below is a list of factors (in no particular order) that will effect Server startup: Platform/Memory/Disk/OS/DB/Separate DB Server?/Applications Combinations/Applications Languages/AR options.

Re: How to create an AD account using Remedy vendor form?
Dear Dmitry, LDAP_OBJECT_CLASS_VIOLATION: Indicates that the add, modify, or modify DN operation violates the object class rules for the entry. For example, the following types of request return this error: 1. The add or modify operation tries to add an entry without a value for a required attribute. 2. The add or modify operation tries to add an entry with a value for an attribute which the class definition does not contain. 3. The modify operation tries to remove a required attribute without removing the auxiliary class that defines the attribute as required. So in your case I believe the 1 or 2nd case holds true. Try to validate all the date before you push the data to the vendor form. If you have problems generating a request id use a Request ID generator form instead. Hope this helps Regards.

Re: View Forms SQL (ARS) to ORACLE (non-ARS)
Dear Carol, There are multiple ways to do this. You can either use EIE (RLO) which can help you to pull data from the external Oracle table to the Remedy Database, or you can create a database link between ARSystem Database and the external table in Oracle using ODBC drivers. Once the DB link is created with appropriate permissions (Read, Write, Execute) you can create a view form from within Remedy, however the Oracle table would require a unique key which you should be designated as the request id and AR System uses five different Oracle data types for columns: number (15, 0), float, varchar, blob, and clob.

Dear Geoffrey, In login.jsp we generate a html tag, <script src="<%= request.getContextPath()%>/shared/TimezoneFinder.js" defer=1>, which references our TimezoneFinder.js file located in /shared under the Mid-Tier web application install directory. Because we're running on the client side we can create a new JavaScript Date object and figure out the timezone on the local client, for example on a PDT(Pacific Daylight Time) PC the timezone is determined by the TimezoneFinder.js file to be America/Dawson, this value is sent to Mid-Tier. As Mid-Tier begins constructing the user's SessionData it performs the following checks: Does the user logging in have a entry in the AR System User Preferences form? If yes then overwrite the timezone value sent, such as America/Dawson, with whatever value that is found in the preferences form on the Locale tab in the Timezone field. Is there no entry in the AR System User Preference form for this user? If there is not then is there a value from passing through login.jsp/login_common.js and the TimezoneFinder.js file, such as the America/Dawson value? If yes, then use this value as the timezone for the user. If neither of these is true then default to the timezone of the Mid-Tier host machine. Now, once the form starts generating we enter a class in Mid-Tier which is responsible for emitting the file userdata.js and it's contents, in particular the value for var timezoneRules. The file userdata.js is auto generated by Mid-Tier as each user logs in to the system. The variable timezoneRules has a structure containing values which helps the client side code know what offsets should be used when determining the correct display values for AR System Date and Date/Time fields. How is the value for this variable determined? Using the passed in Timezone name determined from one of the above steps, running TimezoneFinder.js or the existence of a AR System User preference entry, Mid-Tier looks in the /resources/standard/javascript/timezone directory for a .js file that it can match up to the passed in timezone name. For example if the passed in value is America/Dawson, Mid-Tier loads America_Dawson.js, inside of which is the var timezoneRule declaration and value, which is put into the generated userdata.js file. Hope this helps, Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 5/22/07, Geoffrey Endresen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ** We have a request from our users to show Pacific Timezone on everything instead of the local timezone of the user for a mid-tier application.

Re: Upgrading to CMDB 2.0
Dear John, I guess you remember all those extensions for Telecom and J2EE in CMDB 1.1is now not available with CMDB 2.0, however it has been organized in a much robust way.

I guess BMC does say that CMDB 2.0 has a backward compatibility with ITSM 6.0, however you would have to analyze the amount of effort it would take to customize an application like CMDB with an additional cost of maintaining the existing relationships with ITSM 6.0 Hope this helps Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 5/24/07, Rick Cook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ** It's not that it isn't compatible per se, it's just that you probably don't want to go to the work it would take to map ITSM 6 to CMDB 2.x, especially since you would be on the bleeding edge the whole time.

Re: ITSM 7 People import methodology
Dear Rick, We had initially planned to load the data feed via EIE through RLO, however our EIE got all messed up and then we had to shift to using the staging form on a view form. Our staging form does all the validations before we submit data to any of the actual ITSM forms. The Stages we go through are mentioned below 1. Get the GUID using the CTM:CFGPeopleTagNumgenerator form 2. Submit the entry to the CTM:People Form 3. Receive the person Id 4. Create the permission entries for the default user depending on the company the user belongs to using the CTM:People Permission Groups form (We have multitenancy turned ON) 5. Submit the permission changes to the User form. There were some particular filters on the CTM:People form that checked for the access rights for the user AR ESCALATOR which had to be modified.

Re: Remedy Integration With Team Foundation Server
Dear Shawn, What kind of Database are you using and what level of integration are you looking at...I believe Team Foundation Server comprises two components: The application tier and the data tier. The application tier is a set of web services that provide access to TFS functionality, and a web portal and document repository facilitated by Windows SharePoint Services, whereas the data tier is essentially a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard installation that warehouses all the information for TFS, If you are looking at a integration at a sharepoint level you can consider any configurable item as a CI and use CMDB to relate your project to the incident, You can make it simpler by using web services or if you have a requirement for real time data transfer you can also consider a DTS link between the databases (the last one could be tricky with ITSM 7 though)...Hope this helps Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 4/5/07, Shawn Rosenberry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ** Does anyone have any experience with integrating Remedy with Team Foundation Server?

Re: Approval Server issues
Dear Jim, When you start an approval process for a ticket, a record is created for the approval process in AP:Detail. You can have multiple approvals run against a Change ticket, but only one at a time. This error says that an attempt was made to start an approval process (Application New-Details command), but there is already an active approval process against this ticket since there is an active record in AP:Detail. Cancel or Approve the previous AP:Detail record. To identify the record, open AP:Detail in search mode and in the Request field, place the ticket number of the record that the approval process is being run against. Also check the notification filters for the join form information. Try running arjoinfix on the other join forms as well.. Hope this helps Regards, Roney Samuel Varghese On 3/23/07, Jim Thwaite <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: We're at the end of our ropes here, hopefully someone can help.

We found that the Approval server in the other environments was suddenly referencing a joing which was similar to the AP Detail Signature join but had been created for reporting. In development we removed these joins and ran arjoinfix. This fixed the issue in dev. We did the same in function test (although there was no problem, just for consistency) and it was fine. Now we have done it in Unit test and it still does not work. Specifically the approval server logs are showing an error stating "* No Entry-Detail-Signature join form to send notifications to" We're open to all suggestions and ideas at this point. Remedy has of course suggested upgrading the approval server to 6.3 but noone thus far has been able to confirm this wont cause issues with the 5.0 apps. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
Re: cmdbsvr20.dll: The specified module could not be found.
Dear Cardoso, 1. Click on the Change Pending record in the Class Manager and click on the View Log button. If there was an error in synching the class, the status will say Error and give an error message. If the status is "Pending", it either means the arcmdbd process never issued the CMDBSyncMetaData API call, or the process is still happening within the CMDB API. 2. Check if the arcmdbd server process is running, and if the dispatcher (arsvcdsp) server process are running on the server. If not, verify both are listed in the armontor.cfg/conf file. This server process is responsible for telling the CMDB to build the class. 3. Enable arcmdbd logging by adding CMDB-Debug: T and CMDB-Debug-Level: 5 to the ar.cfg/conf file and restart the AR Server. If no log file is generated, comment out the line from armonitor.cfg/conf file and run that line from the console to verify the arcmdbd is running properly. 4. Verify the shared libraries for CMDB 2.0 are specified in the ar.cfg/conf file, and if not, correct the issue and restart the AR Server: Load-Shared-Library: cmdbsvr20.dll,or libcmdbsvr20.sl, or libcmdbsvr20.so Load-Shared-Library-Path: 5. Enable API logging in BMC Remedy Administrator. Below is an example of how the CMDB API calls appear in the ARAPI log: /* Sat Apr 01 2006 21:19: 47.9234 */+SYNC CMDBSync -- from Unidentified Client (protocol 12) at IP address 172.23.33.40 In CMDB 2.0, the CMDB API calls and their results are written to the ARServer API log. The AR API calls that implement the work are also listed afterward, so it is easy to correlate which AR API calls are issues to perform the work of the CMDB.

Re: ITSM 7.02 and Mid Tier 7.01
Dear Theo, A 404 error means that the server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address. This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused, or when no other response is applicable. Have you installed the Servlet Exec as an ISAPI or a service? Also did you try patching the Sevlet Exec with the latest patch? Also check if you can access any local jsp files on the IIS server.

Re: Export application from 5.1.2 import into 6.3
Dear Gregory, For an export on the 4.0.3 version, a 4.5 version and the V5.1 ARClean should be used. ARClean utility is used to rid a definition file of hard-coded server name references and will replace the references with a placeholder. The @ symbol which AR Server recognizes as a placeholder for the server name, renders the workflow objects contained in the definition file server-independent. Workflow will now use the name of the currently connected AR Server when a server name is required. The ARClean utility can be downloaded from Supportweb in the Developers Community section within Community Downloads. When searching for the utility, note the download type is "Utility" and the Category is "Maintenance". Hope this helps.

Re: Upgrade from V5 to V6.3
Dear Sean, Option 1: 1. Perform a database backup of the ARSystem database on your production V5 server 2. Restore the above database backup to new server machine 3. Install AR System 6.3 onto new server machine, when it asks to overwrite the database or upgrade, select upgrade. 4. Download the latest patch for AR System 6.3 and install (server, user and admin tool patch) 5. Export all active links and menus to a DEF file using the 6.3 admin tool 6. Run arclean against the DEF file (you may need to run several times to look for all the different server references you have) 7. Import the character menus and active links back into the system using the 6.3 admin tool. 8. Then *test* the application - ALL aspects to ensure it is functioning - all menus, workflow and as the different users of the system to ensure their permissions and functionality is the same as the existing production system. A test plan is a good idea so you know how it functions in the existing environment and to ensure it functions the same in the new environment. Option 2: 1. Install your database and AR System 6.3 on your new server machine 2. Download the latest patch for AR System 6.3 and install (server, user and admin tool patch) 3. Identify all changes to the group/user forms and added menus/workflow as compared to the 6.3 group/user. 4. Apply the group/user changes by hand to the 6.3 group and user forms using the 6.3 admin tool. 5. Using your V5 admin tool export your forms and related workflow to a DEF file. 6. Run ARCLEAN against the above DEF file - you may need to run several times for each server reference you want to remove. 7. Using the 6.3 admin tool import the forms from the above DEF file. 8. Using the 6.3 admin tool import the menus from the above DEF file. 9. Using the 6.3 admin tool import the filters, active links and escalations from the above DEF file. 10. Then *test* the application - ALL aspects to ensure it is functioning - all menus, workflow and as the different users of the system to ensure their permissions and functionality is the same as the existing production system. A test plan is a good idea so you know how it functions in the existing environment and to ensure it functions the same in the new environment. Option 3: 1. Install your database and AR System 6.3 on your new server machine 2. Download the latest patch for AR System 6.3 and install (server, user and admin tool patch) 3. Purchase and Install Migrator product to perform the migrator between the two servers. This product also can produce differences reports as well. It functions at the API level. 4. Then *test* the application - ALL aspects to ensure it is functioning - all menus, workflow and as the different users of the system to ensure their permissions and functionality is the same as the existing production system.

Re: Failure during SQL operation to the database
Dear Mark, I have seen a lot of these issues come up only with the Oracle database I would suggest you to upgrade Oracle to the latest patch probably to 10.2.0.2. Once that is done try installing ARS 7.0.1 on it. Hope this help.

Re: ITSM 7 MidTier Install
Dear Frank, Do you get a message on the status bar which says user unable to load userdata.js ? If you do then to resolve this you need to have an AR System User Preference entry setup with the correct Timezone set for each user. Hope this helps.

I can get the login page to appear but then the next pages are all blank, with the NO source code.

Re: Cannot start server
Dear Janet, If the DB is on another box, Check for database locks, which might be caused when you tried to restart the services.
