[rt-users] Too many tickets in queue?

2010-04-07 Thread John Hascall

I received a query from one of our users who
is seeing tickets backing up in their queue
because they are not able to handle the volume
at present and he is wondering if there is a
point where that volume will adversely impact
the perforance of RT.  I'm thinking that
number must be very large, but I'm wondering
if anyone has any more concrete experience.

Thanks,
John

The largest RT I know about does between 40,000 and 70,000 tickets per
day. They do shred historical tickets, lest they end up with tens of
millions of tickets per year in their production database.

At any change in database scale, you'll be looking at doing some tuning
to keep your DB running fast and efficient.

 Hi,
 yes, i did, i gave the see/modify right to every staff member and also to
 every group. But this didn't work. It doesn't matter at all, which rights
 the user/group has, i can only see the headline (custom fields) and nothing
 below. Like there isn't any custom field... ;-(
 
 Please correct me, if i am incorrect:
 
 The staff members need the right to See and to Modify the customfield. This
 is, what i have done. Whether i give the rights to the group and/or to the
 user doesn't matter. Is there any other setting, where i can make sure, that
 custom fields are being shown?

Sounds like you didn't Apply the custom fields (either to a queue from
the Custom Field editing page or Globally from Global - Custom
Fields)

Thank you, this did the trick. I didn't realize, i would have to set the
field to global as well.

[rt-users] Ticket Templates

2010-04-07 Thread Max McGrath
Quick Question.

I am running RT 3.8.7 on Ubuntu 9.10.

Is there anyway to do ticket templates?

Basically, looking to have an easy way to create a resolved ticket
instantly.

In the beginning of the year we constantly have to help students setup
wireless for their room.  Ideally, we would like to be able to track
everyone we help.  So, I guess it'd be nice if we could just have a I
helped insert name setup wireless on their insert OS insert device
type; i.e., I helped Max McGrath setup wireless on their Windows 7 Laptop.

I know their is the Quick Ticket function, but that does not seem to work
when requiring custom fields to be filled in.

Thanks!

Max

Hi John,
sounds strange. about how many ticket inside this queue we talk? We have
some queues with more then 30.000 Tickets status new and the users are
easily able to handle this?

Another Question: How does the user settings looks like for searchresults?
Possibly set to unlimit per page? Then the page load can take a fucking long
time.

Check out RTFM with RTFM-ArticleTemplates Module, this should be the best
solution
