Ø  extra credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual 
Remedy keys should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing "Service Mgt 
Specialist" license

Well, since AR System 7.1.00, there are no longer license keys for users, 
applications or modules - so it is a trick question and the answer is "none".

However, if you meant "licenses", then there are two business licenses 
associated with the Service Management Specialist:


1.       AR System User

2.       SRM Analyst / Admin

Since SRM uses the AR System user for its license checks (i.e. there is no SRM 
application user license technically within the system), the Service Management 
Specialist would enable the entering of an additional count in the AR System 
User fixed/floating row while in the Add/Remove License console.  The number 
would be a one-to-one correlation of the number of SM Specialist licenses 
purchased... so if you bought 5, you would enter (or add) 5 to the count of the 
AR System User license row.

You gotta remember the BMC Naming Standards checklist that the new acquisition 
rename must adhere to:


1.)    Does it contain the words "Service","Management", or "Automation"  (if 
no, try again)

2.)    Can it be represented in a 3-5 letter acronym that is earily similar to 
everything else we sell?

3.)    Has it been renamed in the last 6 months (if no, rename immediately. 
This applies to existing product portfolio as well)

4.)    Is it completely unrelated to the legacy name that is well known in the 
marketplace (if no, try for something more ambiguous)

5.)    Have we shoe-horned the inherent licensing key structure into the BMC 
Blue pricing model making it impossible for any rational person to figure out 
how to apply the correct license keys per their purchased license names?  
(extra credit to the first person who can correctly identify what actual Remedy 
keys should be applied to the AR Server when purchasing "Service Mgt 
Specialist" license)

6.)    Will the new name look good on the BSM Marketing diagram?

7.)    Can we put "cloud" or "on demand" in the name to capitalize on industry 
marketing trends and buzz?

8.)    Will the resulting acronym look like something my 3 year old randomly 
pounded out on the keyboard?

Thanks.  From now on, I'm going to just chuck the B's, T's, and S's, convert 
Roman Numerals to Arabic, and refer to all of their products by number.

Well, for the ones that you can actually use, which is MCMIM, it's 2901 :)

Does anyone know offhand what BMCMITSM is in Roman Numerals?

How does BMC manage to slaughter the names of the products it acquires so 
thoroughly?  "Aeroprise" was good.  It was pronounceable.  It was memorable.  
"BMC Mobility for IT Service Management" is forgettable garble.
