Hehehe…I never said it would solve all your problems…I simply mentioned a
NEW feature introduced in 7.5 where they store license information in a REAL
form…not vendor…query it from the DB all you want…there are of course
complications with any upgrade, but this is a feature I’m eagerly
anticipating using when we go live in Prod with 7.5 J

Thanks guys.

Ya I tried adding some code to the AR System:License Review form, 

but that’s a Vendor form, and it didn’t work L.

I look into the INIT form, though, but I really needed to capture when the
Admin tool is logged into.

I’m thinking if there was a table in the DB, I could write a DB trigger on
that to insert into a different table,

Then drop a view form on that table

 

As far as upgrade to 7.5 (it’ll solve all your problems! MMMMOOOOOOOOO—plop
plopàBull….)

That’s not going to happen any time soon.

I heard the same thing on upgrading to 7.1…needless to say, I was less than
impressed.

Matthew,

As John mentioned, you could use the Init form, but that only works in the
user tool…not Admin or Web…your best option in my opinion is to upgrade to
7.5 and turn on the user license monitoring feature…then write a filter on
these forms to do what you need….outside of upgrading, I believe your only
other option is the user log.

Matthew,

 Look for the INIT_Form in the docs.

You have to add it to the ar.cfg file. I loads in the back ground and you
can use it to push data to your “Spy on the bad admin” form;^>

Can ya tell it’s Friday?

Subject: Capturing when an Admin Login is used

 

** 

All,

I’m trying to capture when a specific Administrator Login is used to login
to the User or Admin Tool.

I need to take that information, and save the ID and the Timestamp into a
Form/Table so that it can be reported off of monthly.

While I could turn on the User Logging (from the Server Information form),
and run a Perl Script to convert it into a CSV,

that means I would have to be doing the reporting (which I want to avoid).

It also means that Log could get pretty big.

 

Does anybody have any suggestions/ideas on how I can do this with Remedy
Work Flow?

I thought there was a way, but I can’t remember.

ITSM 7.1

Thanks in advance
