Re: BSM Dashboards 7.7
Listers, Ok, so I've figured out the root MySQL password and the cs050101 password... however, I'm still having an issue as to where it stores the Dashboards usernames/passwords since they don't store anywhere in the database... Has anyone built an integration using Remedy API to create a Dashboards account through Remedy? Basically what I was thinking was: When a user profile is saved/modified within Remedy (with some kind of dashboards flag albeit checkbox or group membership), to fire a command to dashboards to create an account with the same login id. Was hoping to write a SQL script to do it, however that seems to be out of the question now... Thoughts? Comments? Bueller?

Re: BSM Dashboards 7.7
Rob, I don't know the answer to your question but from experience and the direction I've seen BMC going, they will most likely retire the Dashboards product. They will be looking to take advantage of BOXI 4 and it's SDK for both Analytics and dashboards capabilities. So armed with that knowledge, you can weigh the pros and cons of pursuing the integration and development time you're going to be putting in to the current product.

Re: BSM Dashboards 7.7
Tauf, Thanks for the reply. The more and more I keep digging into Dashboards 7.7.01, the more and more I shake my head I've found that it not only utilizes an instance of mySQL, but utilizes an instance of Apache Derby DB as well. The Dashboard users are stored in the schema BSMDASHBOARDSAPP under the table BSD_USERS within Derby. Utilizing command line JDBC calls, the following call is stating that userid or password is invalid 'jdbc:derby://localhost:1528/bsmdashboards'; Once I can get in through this jdbc connection it will be easy to script out my integration - it's just finding the userid and password that I will need to connect :-) Rob On Sat, Jan 4, 2014 at 6:28 AM, Tauf Chowdhury wrote: > ** > Rob, > I don't know the answer to your question but from experience and the > direction I've seen BMC going, they will most likely retire the Dashboards > product.
