Hi Guys/Gals, This is a general question that people with ITSM 7+ on ARS 7.1 patch less than 4 - or less (ARS 6 eg) on MS-SQL can answer for me. I think the "ViewName" column was added to arschema in 7.1 patch 4. Anyone know if this is right or when it was added? For servers prior to this, I use the following algorithm to derive the view name 1) change all special characters to _ 2) use User_x for User Here's the tricky bit: 3) (for Oracle), if there are more than one table with a common name in the first 30 characters, for all but the first one (lowest schemaid), substitute an underscore and the schema id for the last set of characters So for example, in my case on a 7.0.1 ARS ITSM 7.1 p 1 AST:PurchaseRequisitionLineItemOuterJoin AST_PurchaseRequisitionLine911 911 AST:PurchaseRequisitionLineItemInnerJoin AST_PurchaseRequisitionLineIte 910 BMC.CORE:BMC_ApplicationSystemServices BMC_CORE_BMC_ApplicationSys172 172

If you have 7.1 p 4 or greater with ITSM 7.x, the following SQL will let you know: select name, viewname, schemaid from arschema where name like 'BMC.CORE.CONFIG:BMC_FederatedI%' or select name, viewname, schemaid from arschema where name like ' BMC.CORE:BMC_MemberOfCollectio%' Really appreciate any responses.
