Sorry to dredge this back up from last week...but I've been working on this nonstop, and I still can't make a new record imported to BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem_ show up on a search of AST:ComputerSystem.
It appears to hinge on the creation of the Instance ID, which is a system-generated field. If I take a valid record and modify the Instance ID by a character or two, it won't recognize the new Instance ID I've created. But I can delete old records at the database level and re-import them as long as the Instance ID is valid. How does Remedy know which ones it created and which ones I create? Is there some magic formula? I need to import 44,000 records from a 4.0 Remedy system, and I seem to recall these unique IDs were introduced in 6.x... Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer....

Do you mean you actually import into each separately? I have not done this in a while but I remember only having to import records into BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem_ which in turn created the BMC:BMC_AssetBase. Could this be the problem?

You will need to add the ClassID field and it's hard coded value to your import (or create workflow to do a lookup on import).

Details:If I create new records from AST:ComputerSystem, those records are retrieved, but not my imported records. I have run logging on both the submit and the query. AST:ComputerSystem is an inner join of BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem on itself. BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem is an inner join of BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem_ with BMC:BMC_AssetBase. So in order to import records to AST:ComputerSystem, I imported records to both BMC:BMC_ComputerSystem_ and BMC:BMC_AssetBase with matching Instance IDs. I can see the records exist in AST:ComputerSystem using a SQL select statement, but they don't appear in the Remedy query. (select InstanceID from AST_ComputerSystem) Environment: ARS 6.3, ITSM 6.0, Solaris 10, Oracle 9i Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
