Restricting Searches

2006-05-09 Thread Dave Barber
**
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

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.

According to the Docs (pg 672 ... The wildcards appendix in the BasicGuide for 6.3) you would use something like 
'Summary' LIKE [%]% 
to look for a string that starts with the % sign.

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.

Mike,

Now that today we see a v7 compatibility matrix on Support web.

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.

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.

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.

Rick
