Archiving tickets
I need to start archiving old tickets from my HPD:HelpDesk form. I've used the built in archive for the ar system email messages form which works well but I find it hard to search for old tickets because how it bunches the fields together. So I'm wondering if I should use it for my HPD:HelpDesk form but would like some tips or maybe alternatives to using the built in archive feature?

Re: Auto-logon to Mid-tier without username and pwd parameter
Jason, I tried your myfile.jsp and it seemed to work to get to the correct page I wanted. So you answer my original problem, thanks. Now as for what Matt and the other guys are stating. I'm going to have to think about that. Actually one of the guys from Column suggested I use a generic username/password, so I would hope that what I'm doing is legal. I don't care about tracking who updated the record since I'm doing this for polls so it could be anonymous. I'm just trying to avoid having to add accounts to my Users form because then I'll have to maintain it just for this. Right now only Support has access to Remedy directly.

Re: RSS feeds to Remedy data
Great I understand. So for my support staffs request I would have to create an xml file that only displays his groups tickets using an Escalation. But to set this up so others can see there own data (bigger picture) I would have to create a form available via Mid-Tier with a drop down box of all the different groups and they would have to select what groups tickets they would like to see. Then with workflow create the xml and post it. Sounds pretty easy as long as I can get the xml to look correct. By the way, I tried to use the Data Visualization, but found out that the Data Visualization Server needs to be configured on Mid-Tier to get it to work. Mid-Tier 6.3 doesn't have that field in the available in the config_general.jsp. I'm guessing that it's in 7.x version. The Klink doesn't work on ServletExec which my Mid-Tier is setup on. This is the same problem I ran into getting the Kinetic survey lite to work. I have ServletExec running my Mid-Tier on the same server as the arsystem application. I was told that both ServletExec and Tomcat can co-exist on the same server but the arsystem Java requirements for arserver 6.3 is 1.4 and Tomcat is a minimum of 1.5 so it had a conflict. :-/ I'm still interested in the Klink product so I'll probably just setup a virtual webserver to handle this instead.

Re: Question: Help Desk 6.3
As far as I know in 6.3 just setting him as a manager in the Configure Group Definition doesn't affect the console. The manager needs to be configured in the group from the Group Population form. You have to look at the Management Console's Table Property to understand how it works. As mine shows: (( $Console View$ = Group) AND ( 'Assigned To Group+' != $NULL$ ) AND ($GROUPS$ LIKE (( % + 'Assigned To Group+') + % ))) If what you are saying is how ITSM 7 works that would be a great change. I guess with some added workflow you could use that field in the Configure Group Definition to filter it. Steve On 7/29/08, T.

Error 193: 0xc1 when starting Remedy services
I wanted to track this issue which I resolved since I only saw one occurrence of it in the arslist archives that did not have a solution. My HelpDesk staff periodically reboot my remedy application server just to clear any memory errors. They happen to do a reboot while I was on vacation and had to contact me because the Remedy services didn't start. It kept on getting this strange error: Could not start the AR System Portmapper service on Local Computer. Error 193: 0xc1 I checked my logs and it never clued me what the problem was. I went as far as bringing up my DR server into production and contacted support for assistance. We tried reinstalling the Remedy applications but as soon as the install completed we would get the same error. No luck. Searching the arslists did not show any assistance. Well to make a longer story short, three days later I decided to Google the error and found this. http://www.brainlitter.com/archives/2006/07/error_193_0xc1.htm It said that this guy had this same error when starting up MS SQL, not Remedy related. The problem was that he found a file on his D drive D:\Program. Hmm... Well I looked at my D: drive and low and behold I found this same file. I looked at the create date then renamed it to something else. I went to services and what do you know all the Remedy services started right up. How it got there? I was developing a batch file on that date a few weeks ago and on one run I forgot to surround the path D:\Program Files\.. with double quotes. So when it was run it created a NULL file called Program. So like I said I wanted to track this error, because this very STUPID mistake of mine wasted 3 days of my time trying to figure it out when it could have been resolved in like 2 seconds. Well at least now I know my Disaster Recovery process works.

You already know that it is more efficient to point that escalation at the group form where groupId=0 or 1...or whatever. I believe your question was related to the error messages you're receiving. And although you understand that there are different options for building the escalation, the point is that the escalation fires in other environments without error. Since I've seen this behavior before, I have to ask. This server doesn't happen to be a part of a server group, where it is possible that the escalations attempted to run on more than one server did it? A similar phenomenon occurred here. We didn't usually see the Entry does not exist in database error on this particular escalation that runs nightly; so we knew something was wrong. We found that the error was occurring in the arerror.log of one of the servers and not in the other. We then found that for whatever reason during the last update, the Disable Escalations configuration setting was unchecked on two out of three of our servers. In our case, two servers should have that option checked. The same thing happened with Archiving. It should only be enabled on one out of three of our servers. Not sure if that helps or not.

Re: One company not able to recieve emails
Narrow down the problem more. Try typing in your email instead in the People form for that agency and see if you get the email internally. Try other email addresses. Has the individual have a history of emails not getting to them? Also, did this just start happening? Try removing and adding the individual to make sure everything is setup correctly.

Re: Oracle Case insensitive search:any proven easy way?
I'm on Oracle 10gR1 and Remedy 6.3 and is running into the same requirements. I have a very crude way to search the Summary field using an Active Link. I'm only piloting it right now with our HelpDesk staff and they said it's totally better than nothing. I wish to expand on it since it seems to work. Maybe someone on the list can make some suggestions. I have them type the word to search into the HelpDesk Summary field then use a button to fire an active link (right now I'm actually just using a menu in the WUT). I use a Set Fields and do the following SQL search: SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01/01/1970 00:00:00', 'MM/DD/ HH24:MI:SS') + (HPD_HELPDESK.CREATE_TIME / ( 60 * 60 * 24 )), 'MM/DD/YY HH:MI AM') as Create_Date, HPD_HELPDESK.CASE_ID_, case when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 0 then 'New' when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 1 then 'Assigned' when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 2 then 'Work in Progress' when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 3 then 'Pending' when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 4 then 'Resolved' when HPD_HELPDESK.STATUS = 5 then 'Closed' end as Status ,'[' || HPD_HELPDESK.SUMMARY || ']' as Summary, HPD_HELPDESK.CASE_ID_ FROM HPD_HELPDESK WHERE UPPER(HPD_HELPDESK.SUMMARY) LIKE UPPER('%$Summary$%') ORDER BY HPD_HELPDESK.CREATE_TIME DESC The key part is the WHERE statement. Since it turns everything to Upper case then does a comparison. If you index the Summary field then the results would be quicker. The Set Fields will come up with a list if it finds multiple items then pushes the Case ID of what is selected into the Case ID field (this is all happening on the same Search form). I then set the Summary field to NULL then perform a run process PERFORM-ACTION-APPLY to press the Search button. Like I said very crude and I wish I can do this within a table with the EXTERNAL() command so it'll be prettier. But hey it's free. I hope someone has done something simular and expanded on it.

Re: Line feeds in email templates using Windows ASP CDOSY
Hi Dwayne, Try Google'ing :vbCrLf That usually works for ASP. I use it in my email templates.

Virtualizing Remedy
Our company is starting to get heavy on creating Virtual Servers but none are production worthy yet because of the hardware on the physical server. How close are other companies getting where Virtualization for production machines are a reality? We are using Microsoft Virtual Servers at work but at home I play with Vmware products IMHO is better. I'd really like to get to the point where I can run a production Remedy server on a Virtual server so Disaster Recovery is as quick and cheap as a copy/paste. Or an production installation is as easy a download.

Re: Ping
As for the Up and Down field, maybe have the results create a text file on the server then create a Menu of Menu Type of File to access the text file. Then connect the menu to a character field. Steve On 1/30/08, William H. Will Du Chene [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why not... 1.) Develop a form that contains the ip address, or host name of the machine that you want to ping. 2.) Develop a view form with a table field that queries the host form. 3.) Develop a simple Perl script and place it on your server to be run via an escalation every X minutes. The Perl script would then use the ARSPerl module to open up the host form within the AR System and retrieve a list of the hosts that it needs to contact. It would then cycle through each of the servers therein, and update the corrosponding server's host record within the AR System. The Perl script could use either one of the Net modules, or simply be a wrapper for the ping utility. Maybe you could even do something a bit more classy, such as open a connection to the any of the services that might be on the server and verify that they are available (for example, if this server is an IMAP server, your script could access an account, or if the server is a database server, it could create a row in a test table database) and collect the delta for the amount of time that the operation took and place that into the host record. From your control panel form, use an active link that updates every X time period. The idea being that any servers that are down, or services that would be unavailable would be visible within the control panel. Of course, the accuracy is limited by the delta in time that is present between the last run time of the script and the refresh on the control panel, but it should work fine for the average stuff. Besides, if it's a major network or service outage, the customers will be on the phone anyway...

Re: Error 297: Admin released license too recently
Sorry it didn't take all my changes. Just logon back into Remedy using the User tool with whatever account you were using on the Mid-Tier and then logoff or close the User tool and it'll log that account out. From my understanding Mid-Tier cannot detect that you logged off when your browser crashes or you click on the X. But the User Tool is can detect this. This way works better than using the Admin tool since the App-Administrator's can perform it. For normal support users since I use AD to resolve I have the password field blank. When users call saying they can't log back in to Mid-Tier I just set a password, logon/logoff as them then blank the password out again.

Re: Creating Folder on Network
Not sure if this was what you were looking for, but it's an option. I had used the attached vbs script (rename it with a .vbs extention) before with a button using a ACTIVE LINK RUN PROCESS in Remedy to auto-create a folder. I passed the $caseid$ to create the subfolder name then it opened the folder for the user. Obviously the $USER$ would need to have access to create the folder.

Using the AR System User Preference form
I haven't seen anyone on list asking about it so I'd thought I'd ask. Has anyone used the User Preference Form to keep custom default settings. For example if I have a support staff who all the time would like to set their Console View from the default of Myself to Any or Group. Since that option is not on the form, could I create this field on the User Preference Form so when they set that view on the Console it will automatically push the new settings to the AR System User Preference form, so the next time they logon it would read the User Preference form and set the Console View to the last settings?

Re: Date in Case number
I'm not going to suggest to reset the index to at midnight. If I'm forced into doing this I would rather the index and the old Case ID be the same number so it can be searched by either method. I'm going to increase the to something more like 00 then possibly provide that in reports like what Rick suggested. Thanks for your input.

I had to basically build my own Next_ID form for each Material handler and reset it every night at 12:00:00 AM so each day's first request was like JR2007042201.

Re: Unable to display out-of-the-box flashboard-ARERR[623] Authentica tion failed -
I had the same problem on my Mid-Tier 6.3. The password which you are setting in #2 is not the mid-tier password. That server password needs to match what's in the Remedy Admin tool - File - Server Information - Connection Settings Tab - Mid-Tier Administration Password field. Since by default the password in the Admin tool is blank this why when you leave the password blank in Mid-Tier that you don't get the error message. So you can type in any password but until you set the same password in the Admin tool you'll continue to get the error.

Re: Remedy: Disaster Recovery - Data Exports
I got my Sql backups running at midnight then I have batch files doing exports every 15 minutes via the Windows Scheduler of any form that would update. In the batch file it saves the arx files to the local server and to another server offsight. The query of course would be anything = $DATE$ since the database backup has it to midnight. It just overwrites the old data. We only create about 150 HelpDesk tickets daily so it's not so tasking on my server. I'm on ARS 4.0.3 righ now though. Then on the recovery end I got another batch file that will make sure the Remedy services are off then load the most current backed up database to the local server, then another batch to import the arx files. Then last to enable the Remedy services and I'm up. The recovery process takes only 10 minutes. Since I also copy the backed up SQL database file to my offsite server as well. We're about to go to ARS 6.3 so I'm not sure yet if this same process will work. The exports are actually the easy part since it's straight forward the fun part is the recovery.
