Restricting Searches
** All, I'm looking at how to stop wildcard searches on our database - ie. checking for a percentage sign in the summary or description when they perform a search. I've setup an AL, which checks for 'Summary' LIKE %%%, which I didn't particularly expect to work, and it doesn't. How do I check for wildcards in workflow? I did suggest that we get FTS, but that didn't go down too well ... finances won't allow it. Thanks, Dave __20060125___This posting was submitted with HTML in it___
Re: Restricting Searches
I heard the same thing in What's New ARS 6.x last year (04/05). Apparently FTS was a 3rd-party product. Cost went up so Remedy dropped it. OK as of 6.0.1 (which we run), but apparently not included with ARS 6.3. I've heard rumors that an alternative is available with ARS 7.x.

Re: Restricting Searches
10-4. RTFM. I shouldn't have offered I heard a rumor without first checking the compatibility matrix for this yet-to-be-released version. I'm a little too busy at the moment to do the necessary research. Should stay quiet unless armed with all the facts. No doubt - the compatibility matrix is a good read. It's where I start when considering an upgrade. I'll check into 7 later this summer.

BMC Remedy Full Text Search v7 (5) {-- superscript 5} (on a v7 server only) (5) Please see the Statement of Direction on Supportweb for more information So, it looks like it will be available in v7. But what the feature set/cost will be I have no clue yet. And may other changes too. :) A good read indeed. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap Pick two.

Re: Restricting Searches
Rick, Or My first thought was that it is a signal that you might be getting CMDB as part of the shared part of ITSM. (Even if you have no plans on using it.) But that is just a guess. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap Pick two.

Re: Restricting Searches
Matt, That was my first thought, too - maybe they were assuming that it was bundled with ITSM in some way. But since CMDB 2.0 will have a different CDM than 1.2, I think there will be some compatibility issues with those two versions and ITSM 6 and 7, and that bears detailed listing for clarity of compatibility. The other dynamic is that if they plan on offering CMDB as a standalone product (not sure on that), it would mean that it surely should have its own line item on the Matrix. Maybe they're still working out the compatibility issues with CMDB, and will update the matrix when they've got it all nailed down.
