Re: BMC Software Acquires Aeroprise
Lol. We bought some of the web based ITSM training a few months ago for a handful of us. We decided to all take it together in a conference room. There were a number of points when there is no audio and you have to read so we took turns doing it out loud. It quickly became comical when the reader had to repeatedly say BMC Remedy IT Service Management, BMC Remedy Incident Management, BMC Remedy Asset Management, BMC Remedy Migrator, BMC Remedy Sure we could have said ITSM where appropriate but we were having too much fun. It did seem that there was an attempt to do some marketing brainwashing in the training.

Re: BMC Software Acquires Aeroprise
You gotta remember the BMC Naming Standards checklist that the new acquisition rename must adhere to: 1.)Does it contain the words Service,Management, or Automation (if no, try again) 2.)Can it be represented in a 3-5 letter acronym that is earily similar to everything else we sell? 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 marketplace (if no, try for something more ambiguous) 5.)Have we shoe-horned the inherent licensing key structure into the BMC Blue pricing model making it impossible for any rational person to figure out how to apply the correct license keys per their purchased license names? (extra credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual Remedy keys should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing Service Mgt Specialist license) 6.)Will the new name look good on the BSM Marketing diagram? 7.)Can we put cloud or on demand in the name to capitalize on industry marketing trends and buzz? 8.)Will the resulting acronym look like something my 3 year old randomly pounded out on the keyboard?

Re: BMC Software Acquires Aeroprise
FYI, if you're really interested, BMC Mobility is the over-arching name to be used across BMC. However, since this acquisition is targeted specifically at the Remedy ITSM Suite, a modifier needed to be put in place to indicate it's associated with Remedy. Thus it is BMC Mobility for XXX where XXX is, in this case, IT Service Management (or ITSM). When other mobility solutions are introduced, they'd be associated with their own areas - i.e. the XXX would be the other Suite(s) within BMC. -David J.

Re: BMC Software Acquires Aeroprise
Ø extra credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual Remedy keys should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing Service Mgt Specialist license 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. -David J.

A 'motorized blue wheelchair' on the screen would need to be reviewed for section 508 compliance. Assuming it's on the web and not within the user tool (or flash within the web), at a minimum it would fail 1194.22(j) if it's animated (being motorized) and possibly (c) if the 'blue' signified anything. As an image it also requires a text equivalent. Hopefully, you're not looking to make a multi-media presentation on it as it would need 'synchronized captions' and 'audio equivalent'.

Re: BMC Software Acquires Aeroprise
No fair David, you have the classified cheat sheet. :) And have the benefit of being the meetings where these changes are decided. To Nathan's point it is impossible to match up the licensing console to your support renewal to validate you are not breaching contract. I think I have mentioned before that our Account Managers (many of them) have not be helpful (I haven't met our new one so we can try again). As products have been rename/merged/dropped over the years we have products that are not listed on our support renewal (which has also completely changed after going blue) and we have little evidence that we are entitled to use them at the configured capacity. All we have are some emails between us and BMC, and the original POs where we purchased the license/capacity (usually under a different product name or licensing scheme). The 7.1 license key change has been very nice from a flexibility standpoint but it is a real guessing game now when you go to add licenses to a new server that will replace your old pre ITSM 7 server. One benefit before from a license management perspective was that you needed to purge and reissue each license to put it on a new server; if you were not entitled you couldn't reissue it to the new server.

credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual Remedy keys
should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing Service Mgt Specialist
license 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 User2.
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. -David J. EasterManager of

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. -David J.

This applies to existing product portfolio as well) 4.)Is it completely unrelated to the legacy name that is well known in the marketplace (if no, try for something more ambiguous) 5.)Have we shoe-horned the inherent licensing key structure into the BMC Blue pricing model making it impossible for any rational person to figure out how to apply the correct license keys per their purchased license names? (extra credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual Remedy keys should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing Service Mgt Specialist license) 6.)Will the new name look good on the BSM Marketing diagram? 7.)Can we put cloud or on demand in the name to capitalize on industry marketing trends and buzz? 8.)Will the resulting acronym look like something my 3 year old randomly pounded out on the keyboard?

lol, that was the best one so far. You could also use it to describe a solution.

Instead, since we're all Remedy folks here, you could use a variable name in the Remedy form, something like $ApplicationName$ would seem less inappropriate.

However, since this acquisition is targeted specifically at the Remedy ITSM Suite, a modifier needed to be put in place to indicate it's associated with Remedy. Thus it is BMC Mobility for XXX where XXX is, in this case, IT Service Management (or ITSM). When other mobility solutions are introduced, they'd be associated with their own areas - i.e. the XXX would be the other Suite(s) within BMC. -David J.
