Re: Can we call shell script on remote server via AL run process command?
I used to use psexec as someone suggested to execute programs on another server. When we upgraded to ARS 9.x, that stopped working. It has something to do with java security. I was able to get it to work by using a powershell script to call the remote executable. I don't know if you can use that to call something on a unix server though. I am using it to call an exe on another windows box. I have two functions in my powershell script. One calls the remote exe and waits for a response, the other calls the remote exe and doesn't wait for a response.

SSL on Mid Tier with Load Balancer
We are setting up a new 9.1 mid tier server running on windows server 2012. We will use IIS with tomcat and our load balancer will hold the ssl cert. We contacted support to get all of our ducks in a row before diving in. You all know how that went. Just looking for advice on iis and tomcat configuration and port settings to support this setup. Anything special we need to do? I assume we will have to have iis listening on port 443. Should tomcat be listening on 8443?

Re: HP ALM and Remedy
We use HP UFT (desktop tool) along with the HP ALM server.

Re: Vendor Form to external Oracle Database
Thanks, but I need to update the data in the external database. I think I need a vendor form for this. My first solution to this was using AIE. That worked fine, but we are migrating to ARS 9.1 with AI and support is not very helpful in telling me how to pass a variable into my job/transformation into the ARInput step.

Re: Call AI job from workflow?

Running PSEXEC from Remedy
Hello all. I am trying to execute a set fields action with a process command. We have built a console in remedy for our users to be able to execute some remote automation that they normally would not have access to. Currently this works fine when the controlling process is run on our Remedy server. My problem is that I do not want this process running on the remedy server. In some cases it runs for an hour, in others it can run for days depending on what the automation is doing. I want to offload this process to another server. I have successfully tested this by using a few vbscripts that write a file out to the remote server that gets picked up by another process and executes the command and writes out the results to another file to be picked up and returned to remedy. With the set fields command, I am not always expecting a return value for the process. If the command is to get the status, or to see if a vm is available to run the process, I want a return value. When running the automation, I don't need a return value. That all may be a bit confusing but isn't really too important with regards to my issue. Besides my working test with writing out text files and multiple vbscripts, I am also exploring using psexec which would require one vbscript to execute since i need to write out a text file in order to get the stdout. Another option is a program called paexec, which is almost identical to psexec, except that the stdout is returned without needing to write out a text file. My issue is that when I have the Process command run from remedy, it runs my vbscript on my remedy server, but the paexec does not seem to run. When I try with psexec, it executes, but hangs and does not connect to the remote machine. Executing my vbscript from a command line works fine for both psexec and paexec. If I replace the paexec or psexec command in my vbscript with hostname, it returns the hostname of my server to remedy. I'm thinking that the psexec or paexec are not getting network access when remedy is running the vbscript that calls these programs. I was also considering trying to call the paexec program directly in the Process command, but remedy throws an error. $PROCESS$ @@:D:\QCInt\Test\paexec.exe \\remotesrvname C:\User\QCInt\RunTestSet\RunTestSet.exe -ss Process2Run Any ideas on the programs seemingly not having network access when remedy executes the vbscript or remedy throwing an error when I forgo the script and run the command directly?

Re: Running PSEXEC from Remedy
Our Remedy service is starting as System. That service runs armonitor, which I guess runs all the other related remedy processes including ARserver. Since I am working on DEV, I can try and have that startup as a named generic account that we use to login to the remedy server with.

If Remedy is not 'running as' the user that you are remoted into the server as, then it's not running with the same permissions/environment. So, if not already doing so, have the Remedy service run as the same user you are testing with and you may find that the problems go away.

I have successfully tested this by using a few vbscripts that write a file out to the remote server that gets picked up by another process and executes the command and writes out the results to another file to be picked up and returned to remedy.

Besides my working test with writing out text files and multiple vbscripts, I am also exploring using psexec which would require one vbscript to execute since i need to write out a text file in order to get the stdout. Another option is a program called paexec, which is almost identical to psexec, except that the stdout is returned without needing to write out a text file. My issue is that when I have the Process command run from remedy, it runs my vbscript on my remedy server, but the paexec does not seem to run. When I try with psexec, it executes, but hangs and does not connect to the remote machine. Executing my vbscript from a command line works fine for both psexec and paexec.

Re: Running PSEXEC from Remedy
Thanks LJ - It worked. vbscript executes, runs psexec or paexec, process runs on remote machine and the stcout is returned to Remedy.

If Remedy is not 'running as' the user that you are remoted into the server as, then it's not running with the same permissions/environment. So, if not already doing so, have the Remedy service run as the same user you are testing with and you may find that the problems go away.

Are these new fields that were added to the external data store after you first setup the exchange? If so, remedy does not know these exist. You need to run an executable from the server in order to update remedy with these fields. Check the documentation for rlohelper.exe There may be different executables for SQL and Oracle databases.

Re: Computed Group
From the documentation: Computed groups—Explicit groups that you create and to which users are assigned based on the memberships of explicit groups included in an expression. For example, you can create a computed group definition such as (A AND B) OR C AND NOT D. This computed group includes the list of users who are members of both groups A and B, or members of group C, but not members of group D. Computed groups make groups easier to manage. You can manage your users in a limited number of regular groups, and use computed groups based on these regular groups for more complex access control without the need to make changes in multiple groups. I use computed groups in conjunction with roles for an application that requires multiple groups for security. The main role is mapped to a computed group. This main role is given access to the application. I then create all the security groups I need. The computed group contains all of these security groups. The security groups are mapped to roles to be used in the application. When a user needs to be given access to the app with certain security, I only need to add them to one group. They are automatically added to the computed group and given access to the app and have the security of the group they were added to. You only need to use roles and map them to groups when you are working with applications. I hope that makes sense.

Re: Remedy 7.5 Installation Time
I did an upgrade of ARS 7.1 to 7.5 the other day. ARS and Attrium Core, not ITSM, no SLM. We stayed with ITSM 7.0.3 and installed the compatibility patch for that. This was our dev box in prep for our prod upgrade in 2 weeks. It is a 32 bit OS running as a VM. 2 processors and 8 gig of RAM (not all used on a 32 bit windows 2003 server) Remote Oracle 10G database. The upgrade took us 6 and a half hours. I would suspect that our Production upgrade will be slightly quicker. Our prod box is a dual quad core with 16 GB RAM and a remote oracle 10G database Hope this helps.

Add the Known Error ID field and Request ID02 fields to the form. When you do a search, it will show a record for each Known Error record. If there is a match in the associations table, it will also bring that information in as well. If there is no match, then any fields from the associations table that you put on the join form (Request ID02 in this case) will be NULL. So to find all Known Errors that don't have a corresponding change, just search for all the records in the join form where one of the association fields (Request ID02) is $NULL$.

Re: Help with runmacro.exe
You need to record a macro in the user tool. When recording the macro, you will perform your search and go all the way through selecting your predefined report and exporting to csv. The macro records the report criteria, so technically the report file is no longer needed. Check the documentation Integrating-710.pdf page 202 You can use runmacro with the -o option to use the arcopy syntax, which copies the output to a file: runmacro -o output_file_name [{-x server} ...] -U user] [-P password] [{ -f | -s} form] [-t {arx|csv|xml}] [-Q internal_qualification_format] [-q client_tool_qualification_format] [-Z internal_format_qualification_file_name] [-z client_tool_format_qualification_file_name] [{-w | -W } external_authentication_string] [-a port_number] When you use the -o option to export data with attachments, the attachments folder is created in the same directory as the export file. The attachments folder name uses an integer time stamp (for example, 917732184), and the folder location is specified in the output file name of the runmacro command. When creating macros, you can record a login with the proper permissions if you perform actions that require those permissions (for example, an administrator deleting records). If your macro does not record a login, you must specify login information using the -U option and the -P option (if necessary).

Re: Problem on qualification
Support Group names are mapped to groups on the group form. If you want to email a Support Group, you need to lookup the group name on the group form. It is most likely going to be a number.

You can change the default notification mechanism that Remedy uses by adjusting the Records in the NTE:CFG-Notification Events form. Search for records where the Notification Event Type is System Default and then modify them so that the Remedy Notification Method is Email instead of Alert.

Re: RPC Timeout Errors
Don't put a production server in Dev Cache mode. Read the guides to get an explanation on the server modes. My take on it is that Dev Cache mode gives priority to development. If you do this on a production server, the devs will see performance improvement, but the system users will take a huge hit and may end up getting errors. With Dev Cache mode OFF, every dev tool or admin tool save causes a refresh of the server cache. A copy of the cache is made, then it is rebuilt. This allows the users to work without much impact. My guess is that one dev is making a change and saves. Another dev makes a change and tries to save while the server is re-caching. That would explain the time out errors. James On Feb 5, 2:52 pm, Leonard Neely - FOJ lne...@focusonjobs.com wrote: The behavior that you describe is typical when multiple developers are on the system, and the server is not in Development Cache Mode, as activity in DT form multiple developers will all contend for the single Admin thread. This is also why you don't really see the issue in the User Tool while performing functions (e.g. Searches, Updates, Etc.) that don't use the Admin thread.

Re: Server Information
I don't have recommended numbers for these. I know there is a performance tuning guide you could look at from the support site. It might be a whitepaper. I suggest you download the documentation for the products you are using. I am assuming you have a valid support contract. Max Entries Returned by GetList: Limits how many database entries are returned from a search. For example, setting the maximum entries to 50 would return a maximum of 50 entries, even if more entries satisfied the search qualification. The AR System warns users that the search matched more entries than the administrator allows to be retrieved. If users specify a maximum in their preferences, the lesser of these two values is used. A value of zero (0) specifies no limit (the default). Server Table Field Chunk Size: For server-side table fields, this number determines the number of entries (or size of the chunk) that the server retrieves at one time from the database and stores inmemory to process during filter or filter guide actions. The server then retrieves, stores, and processes the next chunk until all the rows have been processed. Entering a value of zero (0) causes the server to retrieve an unlimited number of rows. The default is 1000 rows. Entering a low value in this field causes the server to process smaller chunks, which keeps the server memory usage down, but results in slower processing because the server needs to access the database many times, especially for large tables. Entering a high value causes the server to retrieve and process large chunks of data and access the database fewer times. This results in higher performance at the cost of memory use.

Re: ARS 7.1 - Disabling Table Refresh
I think you can only disable the mouse right click Refresh option in the table properties. You can't stop an active link from refreshing a table without workflow that would stop those active links from firing in the first place.

Re: Parse Group Members for Notification
Thanks for the reply. I was looking at the CTM:Support Group Association form. I wasn't aware of server side tables and how they worked. I did a quick test with some test forms, filters and a filter guide. It worked. Now we just need to go lookup the user notification preferences and some other tweaking and we should be all set. Thanks, James On Nov 17, 5:19 pm, Lyle Taylor tayl...@ldschurch.org wrote: Do you mean that for a given group, you want to create a notification record for each individual in the group, meaning that the problem is how to get the list of members of the group and iterate over that list to create a new record for each one? If that's the case, the group memberships of people are stored in the CTM:Support Group Association form. In principle, you should be able to create a table that references this form, filtering on the support group name, that you can run a filter guide on to iterate over all the records in the table. You can then create an individual notification record for each row in the table. Does that address what you're trying to do? Otherwise, the OOTB workflow handles group notifications a little differently than individual notifications. Individual notifications (e.g., Customer, Assignee, etc.) are processed immediately - so you'll immediately see the notification record for that individual when you perform an action on a record that generates a notification. However, for group notifications, it does it in two steps. First it creates an initial entry for the group, and then an escalation (maybe SYS:NPC:IM1-TriggerGroupNTG) takes care of processing the group notifications to generate the individual notifications. That may be why you weren't seeing it in your log files - if you didn't wait long enough, the escalation may not have fired before you turned off logging. Sorry for not providing more detail - I'm trying to be quick writing this while hoping that the general information will help steer you in the right direction.

Re: ARS 7.5 Installer
I did some testing with the 7.5 patch 001 WUT installer. Since we have installed the 7.1 WUT to c:\program files\Remedy, I was looking to be able to upgrade/update the existing install. The installer, both manual and scripted, allow you to specify an installation directory. What you DO NOT have the option of omitting is the User sub-directory that is appended and installed to. So, if I tell the 7.5 installer to install the WUT to c:\program files\Remedy (to upgrade the existing install), it will install to c:\program files \Remedy\User and leave me with both the 7.1 and 7.5 installs. I have not tested with the 7.5 patch 003 installer yet, but I would assume it behaves the same way. This is going to be an issue for us when we upgrade to 7.5.

I am testing with 003 now, and will have to test some different scenarios to see if it will do a better job of spot maintenance. The other exciting feature I hit (patch 003) was that if you select overwrite database (there was an old ARSystem db on the remote SQL Server), the installer issued a drop command for the database (normal behavior), and then issued a drop command for the domain\user account that I had entered as the SQL Server account (Windows authentication to SQL Server), and then it was no longer able to connect to the SQL Server using that account (DUH!) to create the new ARSystem db.

It is an all or nothing kind of approach that makes upgrades and repairs a lot more hazardous and unreliable since you can no longer work on just the one problem service (AREmail is the primary culprit here) without running an install against the entire ARS system. In 7.1 and earlier we have always had trouble with the AREmail module - it is one of the services that seldom upgraded correctly, usually losing its ability to connect to MAPI properly and requiring you to uninstall it, wipe all traces of it from the file system and registry, and reinstall it. I haven't figured out any way to do that with the monolithic suite installer without touching the entire installation. Someone somewhere must have thought that a single suite installer would be simpler to work with, but in practice it makes a nightmare out of troubleshooting and reinstalling a particular problem service (and AREMail after 4.x has always been a problem service - witness the open issue I have had with our production AREmail system crashing on 7.1 since June 2008, still unresolved). It also means that any run of the installer takes WAY longer since you have to go through every dialog even though 90% are irrelevant to what you want to do, and reenter passwords all along the way for things you didn't need to work on, or now they will STOP working. The suite installer might make sense for a new install of a fresh system - ONCE. After that, you still need individual service uninstall-reinstall capability. Part of my frustration is from trying to troubleshoot two 7.5 systems, one upgraded from 7.1 and one a fresh install, neither of which can successfully run the AREmail service and send out mail. The same complaint applies when working on a web server, but you are generally in a more limited environment with only mid-tier and flashboards installed. Upgrading the 7.x mid-tier by installer historically trashes your integration to crystal reports, making it necessary to uninstall it and install a fresh instance in order to get it working again. The monolithic installer gets in the way here too, just not as much (and not as high-risk) because only mid-tier and flashboards are typically on the web server. /RANT BTW, the 7.5 installer still prompts for account, password, and domain for Email like it always did (5.x, 6.x, 7.0, 7.1), but no longer concatenates domain\account to use when creating the Remedy Email Engine service (so it fails to do so in our environment).

Re: Filter / notify / phase 3 question
I have tried what Frank suggested yesterday while working on a similar issue that Sean has. My problem is that I need the data in that cleared field to be included in the email. Even though my notify action fired before phase 3, it seems that there are a number of system workflow objects that fire at phase 3 to generate the email. At that point, the field is empty and that data would not be included in the email.

Nobody notified us, his emails just bounced back, his phone numbers gave errors, and there was no indication that we no longer had a sales rep. Is this a common occurrence with BMC now? Based on the difficulties we’ve had dealing with BMC both from the training side, the support side and now from the sales side, I’m wondering what the future is of the company. I haven’t heard any rumors of either BMC being looked at for a purchase by a larger company or of BMC looking to sell off Remedy, but they don’t seem to be acting like a company that seeks to grow their software sales or maintain existing customers. Is my company the only one having these types of issues or is this a widespread problem? Oh, and a P.S. – Despite these problems, some vendors are even worse. There is another application I support where the tickets are closed out without the vendor ever even responding to me, and where it appears they lost any record of us paying them for support. I know there is much worse than what BMC is doing right now, but the Remedy suite is my bread and butter and I want to see it grow rather than decline due to bad corporate decisions.

Create an active link (on interval) that prompts the user for a kind of session timeout. Say every hour with a dialog asking: Are you still there?. (with yes/no buttons) Then have a second on interval active link on the dialog that would timeout the dialog in 30 seconds. If the 30 second timeout Active Link gets to run then the No button is pushed. If the No button is pushed then this happens. 1) Send an Event to all open forms and have workflow clear the change flag on all windows. 2) log the user out with the Special Run Process PERFORM-ACTION-EXIT-APP If the Yes button is pushed then this happens. 1) close the dialog. Now this could be more fancy if you want to also have a display only Date/Time field where other workflow keeps updating the timestamp in the field and the session timeout active link could run more frequently than every 30 minutes too. (Then it could look to see if the field's value is = ($TIMESTAMP $ - 3600) and have an accuracy of say.. 5 minutes+/- instead of prompting every 30 minutes regardless of activity.) And obviously you would need to decide what is enough activity to trigger the update of the timestamp value by adding a set field action to the (hopefully already existing) active links that the user is triggering. It seems like it should work in my head.

I tried posting the log here, but my post is not posting. Strange.

Error Starting Server After 7.5 patch 2 upgrade
Listers, I upgraded our test environment from ARS 7.5 patch 1 to 7.5 patch 2 last week. The installer failed when trying to restart the arserver towards the end of the install. The only error I can see in the armonitor log file is: Failure occurred during execl() (ARERR 33) The install log does not show any errors until it fails to restart the server. I have verified that the armonitor.cfg file looks correct and even restored a backup copy just to make sure. Support has been unable to make any progress on this issue.
