Just throwing in my 2 cents here, but we offered the users a separate mid-tier for 'unlimited' reporting, with the caveat that they would probably blow it up if they were not careful, which they did. Many times. Our thoughts were that the JVM would give up long before the application server.

Okay, that was an epic answer. The "what if's" here are interesting. We have spent a great deal of time developing this idea, including time with BMC PS last year, ongoing conversations with support, as well as our own internal database people. The real crux of the problem we have is that you

Doug, What does he do to prevent these users from 'taking too much bandwidth' with their unlimited queries? Do you not like the 'special' connection to the DB that he was looking at? On Tue, Dec 10, 2013 at 10:22 AM, Mueller, Doug wrote: > ** > > William, > > > > My strong suggestion is to add

William, My strong suggestion is to add the servers as regular servers in the server group. Then, just don't have them behind the interactive load balancer but maybe a reporting load balancer. So, regular interactive traffic is not directed to them. Point mid-tiers for interactive use at the

William, I can't verify this...but I'm not entirely sure you need to install ITSM on the reporting boxesI honestly don't know for sure...but being the users won't actually be 'working' in this environment, they may just need a Remedy instance that can query the tables. On Tue, Dec 10, 2013 at

Adding servers to the server group

So we currently have 6 AR servers in a server group - I'm adding some more. Two of the new servers will be solely to support reporting. I'm sort of mulling my options. I do not need them to be in the server group - at least in the sense of taking over any functions if a task goes down. The on

Hello Neha, Is this related with SLA then Terja is correct. To achieve this I believe you have to do the customization and capture the status reason changes along with time in some custom form and the difference between those times you consider as "Stop clock". Warm Regards, Pankaj Salpekar S

Neha, "Stop the clock" term used when you defined your SLA's and OLA's. Within the 'Measurement Criteria' for the SLA you can define when the clock should stop 'Stop When' and within the 'Exclude' field you can define what you want to be excluded. Some people call this "Stop the Clock". For exa
