Re: EXTERNAL: Re: ARSystem 8.1, install patch 1 with disabled email engine fails

2013-09-18 Thread Reiser, John J
Jason,
So, disabling the outgoing mailbox record in the form should prevent this from 
occurring.
Or does the process run inside the ARSystem by looking at the AR System Email 
Messages form?

Thank you,

Our process that restarts the Email Engine if there is an outgoing email older 
that 10 minutes and hasn't been sent yet :)

It is a great process to increase reliability of the Email Engine but there 
have been a number of times I stop the service to do some work that will 
trigger emails just to find the Email Engine started again.

What starts your email engine when it is set to manual startup?



To counter it, you could have a batch script on startup of the server to stop 
the email server if its started by issuing a net stop against the email service 
if you are on windows, which I'm assuming you are on as you mentioned it below 
on your email..

It is disabled because we don't want any emails to be sent.  The Email Engine 
will still automatically be started at times if the service is set to manual.  
Often times we are working on a clone of a server and reconfiguring the email 
engine to work in its new environment is the last thing on the list.  We don't 
want emails going out until everything is completed.

It seems odd that the forms and related objects would not be imported just 
because the Email Engine isn't running?  I didn't think the Email Engine was 
use for much more that processing incoming and outgoing mail.

We routinely install/upgrade/patch with the Email Engine service disabled.  We 
get a message stating the email engine wasn't enable or something like that at 
the end but never a failure.  I had one issue a year go upgrade AR 7.5 to AR 
7.6.04 where the email service would get removed and not recreated.  I just 
added the service back after the install using the batch file.

Disabling the outgoing mailbox records should take care of most of it.  I
think inflight emails, say in the case of emails already in the AR System
Email Messages form from doing a db restore to another environment already
have referenced the mailbox config and I think would be sent if they had
not been send in the original environment.

Our process run in Remedy from a SHR:Escalation form looking at AR System
Email Messages records.  That is a great enhancement idea though...  We
could improve the process to look at the mailbox configuration first to
verify it is even enabled before searching pending outgoing records.

 It is disabled because we don't want any emails to be sent.  The Email
 Engine will still automatically be started at times if the service is set
 to manual.  Often times we are working on a clone of a server and
 reconfiguring the email engine to work in its new environment is the last
 thing on the list.  We don't want emails going out until everything is
 completed.

 Why did you disable the service? Wouldn’t just stopping the service, and
 have it set to Manual work for not letting it run on the server? Disabling
 the service perhaps puts some sort of a system lock on the service to
 perform a start of the service during the install to let the installer do
 what it has to and then stop it.

 It seems odd that the forms and related objects would not be imported just
 because the Email Engine isn't running?  I didn't think the Email Engine
 was use for much more that processing incoming and outgoing mail.

  

 We routinely install/upgrade/patch with the Email Engine service disabled.
  We get a message stating the email engine wasn't enable or something like
 that at the end but never a failure.  I had one issue a year go upgrade AR
 7.5 to AR 7.6.04 where the email service would get removed and not
 recreated.  I just added the service back after the install using the batch
 file.

 As far as I know , this is what might be happening , If this is an upgrade
 install , then in 8.1 email engine is a part of AR Components. 8.1 patch
 installer expect that existing email engine process has to be enable so
 that installer can restart it and import upgrade version of remedy email
 engine forms and related objects if disabled installer will fail to import
 the objects thus all further components install.. in 8.1 whatever
 components comes under AR components , they will be installed as a part of
 installer (you need them or not). Hence installer expect email engine be
 enabled.
