Re: ITSM 7.6.03 Preconfigured Stack Installer. Where are they hiding it?

2010-10-10 Thread Easter, David
The ITSM Suite Preconfigured Stack Installer is available under EPD within the 
ITSM Suite.  In other words, it is only available for those customers who 
purchased the ITSM Suite Solution Pack.  Under the ITSM Suite, you'll find the 
SSI in its own folder.  Note that the Suite Stack Installer (SSI) is only 
available for Windows and Solaris - so if you look for it under a different 
operating system, you also will not see it.

The SSI is not available to customers who are still on the legacy sales model 
(e.g. those who purchased individual applications a la carte).

So, I go to the the support site looking for this said stack installer. I can't 
find my way to the this new marvel.

So EPD (electronic product dowonload) is new and improved. Nice, but what is 
this installer named? What tab is it on? Wait, only what I own is listed, not 
other software. Wait, I can request a trial. Hmm no I don't get the software 
after requesting a trial, but only a promise somebody will contact me. Not in 3 
days.
 
Forget EPD. Go back to the Downloads and Patches link. Too many ways to get to 
software downloads. EPD, or is Remedy still a heritage, or not a heritage? Who 
knows? 
Should I look under patch, or no patch? "03" would be the patch number, no? 
Search under "Remedy Heritage" "patch", and there is no such version as 7.6.03 
and no patch 3 for 7.6...for IM/PM/CM and no product is either stacked or 
preconfigured there. Bummer. It looks like the heritage has been shed and 
modernity is upon us. So that's settled. May be.

Wait, there's "A-Z Supported Product List. " This looks promising. They 
couldn't have missed the ITSM 7.6.03 preconfigured stack installer here. It 
starts with an alphabet, after all. 

They haven't stacked or preconfigured anything here either! It lists "Remedy IT 
Service Management Suite (Version 7.6.03)", which has a doc that says 
"Installation Notes for BMC Remedy ITSM Suite Preconfigured Stack 7.6.03.".
Eeehaa, finally. 

Wait, this doc tells me to go back to the new and improved EPD! I swear it's 
not there in EPD. EPD seems designed to bar me from getting anything I don't 
already own. We only own some of the set of apps that are included in the said 
"ITSM 7.6.03 preconfigured stack" installer. 
So I shouldn't have been given the hope? Or may be the clever joke behind the 
new EPD was to challenge people's IQ which I am wondering if I have in low 
supply. Only today, I think.

ITSM 7.6.03 Preconfigured Stack Installer. Where are they hiding it?

So, I go to the the support site looking for this said stack installer. I can't
