Solid State Hard Drives
Hi All, I couldn't get ITSM to run on my laptop which has an i7 processor and 8G RAM. I recently upgraded it to 16G and replaced the hard drive with a 500GB SSD. Now ITSM flies and I can run it and ADDM together in VM's and still do the normal document/email stuff. Are SSD's now sufficiently stable to use in datacenter servers? If so, would this help solve some performance issues? I'm not responsible for any servers so am just asking out of interest.

Re: Solid State Hard Drives
I know a lot of SAN storage is now converting over to SSD's an that is enterprise class storage so I can't see why servers wouldn't be able to run it as well.

san can be as fast as 8Gb *Fibre* Channel Expansion *Card*, scsi 3 is only 320 MB/s... just something to think about..

Re: FTS Plugin issues in 7.6.04
Hi, Yep, we have raised this with BMC. I have been hosting a daily call with BMC since we went live in October going through our issues and slowly but surely, resolving each one through hotfixes or small configuration changes to our system. I must say, BMC have been very helpful. I think one one of our challenges is that we are one of the very few customers using 7.6.04 on an AIX platform and we were also one of the early adopters, so it has been a learning curve for both ourselves and BMC. Our FTS symptoms have been very interesting. We reported last October, that our FTS Java process was flat lining at 60% CPU. It was a random occurrence happening only twice in a few months, but when it started, it did not stop until we killed the process. Most recently, we have been getting the error I mentioned below, but again it does not happen frequently. We found KB351120 recently which you may know about, but I don't believe it is related to our issue. For those who are thinking of moving to 7.6.04 (Re: Which sp of 7.6.4 is most stable?), I would agree with others that SP3 is your best bet. We are now in production on ITSM 7.6.04 SP1/AR 7.6.04 SP1, but we have to monitor the system quite carefully for those small blips! Mike.

Re: Solid State Hard Drives
Peter: I have a habit of keeping a resource monitor (Windows 7 Resource Monitor or CentOS GNOME widget) running on my laptop at all times and of never using the host OS to do anything except run VMs. Given sufficient RAM (8GB seems adequate), I've found that the hard disk is almost always the bottleneck in performance, especially when running more than one VM. I've been considering buying an external esata enclosure with two 7200 RPM drives configured as RAID 0 for my work laptop. I use a similar storage configuration on my home server, and the disk bottleneck is much reduced. All that being said, SSDs have seemed pretty stable for the last couple of years. If performance similar to the RAID 0 configuration can be achieved internally, then it would be _way_ more convenient than an external enclosure.

Re: Data Wizard
Lars, It will change the support group name, not the ID, on many of the ITSM forms and update functional roles for the people in that group. However, it does not update any templates that are using that group. So, if have any change, work order, or Incident templates where use that support group, make sure to change the ownership first to another group or it could corrupt the templates. That has happened to me with infrastructure change templates. Make sure to check the group notification option on the support group after you've renamed it. It will set it to no and that group will not get messages when a group notification event fires.

Tomcat URL Redirect question
I am hoping someone on this list has done this before and can provide some quick answers. We are setting up a several new Mid-Tier servers along with several new AR System Servers. The Mid-Tier servers will have a load balancer hardware in front of it. What I have been asked to do is to set up Tomcat on these two new Mid-Tier servers so that Tomcat has the ability to evaluate the URL the user is coming in on from the internet and redirecting that user to a specific server. This is what we are planning. We have two servers ARServer A and ARServer B and the user uses the URL www.Iwant ServerA.comhttp://www.Iwant%20ServerA.com we want Tomcat to redirect them to ARServerA (SUN) if they use a different URL say www.Iwant ServerB.comhttp://www.Iwant%20ServerB.com Tomcat would redirect them to ARServerB (HP). Is this possible in Tomcat? If so, where can I find the instructions on how to do that? We are running Two UNIX Servers One server is a SUN OS 5.9 and the other server is an HP-UX 11i v3 and both have AR Server 7.1 patch 11 installed.

Re: Just wondering....
I would suggest using the recommended version. Sometimes little things like changes in the subdirectories of JDE / JDK would mean that the AR would not find the necessary libraries where it expects them, as often these relative paths are hard coded in the application logic. This will cause the java dependent portions of your app to fail.

Re: Tomcat URL Redirect question
If you are using different hostnames, why use a load balancer? If you want to use different hostnames and the load balancer (for redundancy), you can create two VIP's, one for each hostname, then set up the nodes in the VIP appropriately, as one active/primary, and the other for redundancy. For example: VIPa nodes: server1 (primary), server2 (failover) VIPb nodes: server2 (primary), server1 (failover) Just set up the redirection so that all traffic goes to the primary except in the event of a failure, and set up the monitoring so that it can check the up/down status of each node. If you are instead talking about the context path (e.g., server.com/arsys/forms/server/formA versus server.com/arsys/forms/server/formB), you can set up your proxy software to redirect to the appropriate Tomcat instance. Are you using anything in front of Tomcat (i.e., mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ajp, mod_jk, etc.)?

Prompt a message if multiple rows are selected on a table field.
Hello All, I would like to prompt a message if multiple rows on a table field is selected. Currently, this table field is on a display only form. I am trying to make sure that the User selects only one row to perform other actions in that display only form. Currently, when he selects Row - 1 and then Row-2 on that table field, then clicks on a button on that form, the additonal action which is being perfomed on table field acts only on the first row selected. Although, I know I can do a table loop(Active Link Guide) to make that action being performed on multiple rows, but at this point I would like to prompt a message. How can I do this?

Re: SRM -- just asking ---for the impossible.
I am thinking to building my own! However sometimes it is just good to get a thought in the ears of BMC.

Re: Wonder how many of these tales are true....
I grew in South Jersey. I can’t vouch for any of these tales, but I can tell you there’s over a million acres of pines trees sand called the “Pine Barrens” in NJ. The Pine Barrens are as beautiful, lonely creepy as it gets. Miles miles of two lane roads with scrubby pine trees on either side. Every so often there’s a sandy one lane trail off to one side or the other. Turn off onto one of these roads. It just gets lonelier creepier. You might find a quarry but don’t get too close – you could be up to your knees in sand still sinking before you know it. You might see an old wreck of an abandoned car with bullet holes in every square inch. And then there are the remains of what looks like an animal carcass. Now try to find your way back out to the main road. The Pine Barrens is where the Jersey Devil is said to live. It was also an episode of The Sopranos, the one where Paulie Christopher take a Russian mobster into the woods (the Pine Barrens), end up getting lost have to spend the night in an abandoned vehicle. No wonder many of the places listed on the web page are in or around the Pine Barrens. On Fri, Mar 16, 2012 at 4:51 PM, Joe Martin D'Souza jdso...@shyle.netwrote: ** Is there any truth to it???

Re: invalid relational operator exception from QualifierInfo
Hi, Thanks to LJ and Jose for the replies! As suggested I looked at the logs. The output seems to support the idea that there is a bug in parseQualification: When called on a field that works as expected ('Summary' in the example below) the result is: SELECT T852.C1,C536870989 FROM T852 WHERE (T852.C8 = 'atl01a') ORDER BY C536870944 DESC, 1 ASC When called on a field that causes an exception ('Associated Asset' in the example below) the result is: SELECT T852.C1,C536870989 FROM T852 WHERE (T852.C536870989 ORDER BY C536870944 DESC, 1 ASC When called using LIKE instead of = on the 'Associated Asset' the result is: SELECT T852.C1,C536870989 FROM T852 WHERE (dbms_lob.instr (T852.C536870989, 'atl01a') 0) ORDER BY C536870944 DESC, 1 ASC Unfortunately, while this runs without an error, it does return any results. Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to me that parseQualification is not generating a working sql statement in the example that causes an exception. Note that there is no comparison operator or RHS value between T852.C536870989 and ORDER BY. Further, the sql statement that is generated when LIKE is used doesn't result in the correct results. thanks again, Tony -Original Message- Date:Thu, 15 Mar 2012 09:34:09 -0600 From:LJ LongWing lj.longw...@gmail.com Subject: Re: invalid relational operator exception from QualifierInfo Tony, I have tried doing searches (via the user tool) on 0 length fields and received errors (I believe it stores them in clob in the db)...but I'm on SQL, and my error was different...but I suspect that the problem is a DB problem, not a Remedy problemcan you issue the same query in the user tool...and then maybe get an sql log of the request and try it directly at the DB?...I fully suspect you will find that it's a db problem and not an api issue. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Anthony Jurado Jr Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2012 2:13 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: invalid relational operator exception from QualifierInfo Hi, I have a Java program which uses getListEntry().

Licenses
** So I buy Fixed and Floating Licenses, sorry Named and Concurrent.I can obtain AR User and Separate Application Licenses. I can get these application licenses bundled or by the application. In today's world I do not have to purchase both User and Application licenses for any individual because the application license contains the User license.In an environment with COTS Applications and Custom Forms, I need AR User licenses for people who only work with the custom forms. I need Application licenses for those who work with the COTS Applications and who may or may not work with the custom forms.Now the User Form asks for License Type, Read, Fixed, Floating, Restricted Read. (OK named or concurrent)Then it asks for the Application License in a text field. Sorry for the simplified example:So person 1 is assigned a License Type Fixed and BMC Incident Mgmt FixedSo person 2 is assigned a License Type Floating and BMC Incident Mgmt FloatingSo person 3 is assigned a License Type Fixed and BMC Change Mgmt FloatingSo person 4 is assigned a License Type Floating and BMC Problem Mgmt FixedHow does the application identify how many licenses are remaining?

ARERR 3377 (LDAP Errors) and Filter Error Handlers
Hello, We have an LDAP Vendor form that integrates with Active Directory. While trying to add some error trapping, it seems that the errors from LDAP don't trigger the ARS error handling of filters. I have a simple filter that adds a user to the member attribute of an AD Group. It works fine and has for years. Today, I added an error handler to that filter so that I could gracefully deal with situations where the member add failed. To test this, I am intentionally trying to add a user to a DN for which my LDAP account doesn't have access. I do get this message in the arerror.log (and on screen) so ARS does recognize it as an error: The LDAP operation has failed : Insufficient access (LDAPERR 50)2098: SecErr: DSID-03150A48, problem 4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0 (ARERR 3377) The filter log shows the set field processing on the member field, but there is no indication of an error other than the last line: FLTR /* Fri Mar 16 2012 19:14:18.0717 */ Checking TRG:ADG:UserDN_AddToGroup (999) FLTR-- Passed -- perform actions FLTR 0: Set Fields FLTR members (536870921) = CN= userinfo1^|^CN= userinfo2^|^CN= userinfo3 FLTR /* Fri Mar 16 2012 19:14:18.0795 */ End of filter processing (phase 1) -- Operation - SET on TRG:Active Directory:Group - snip DN FLTR /* Fri Mar 16 2012 19:14:18.1717 */Canceled filter processing due to error I added an error message action to test the error handler, and it triggered as expected: FLTR /* Fri Mar 16 2012 19:45:13.6116 */ Checking TRG:ADG:UserDN_AddToGroup (999) FLTR-- Passed -- perform actions FLTR 0: Set Fields FLTR members (536870921) = CN= userinfo1^|^CN= userinfo2^|^CN= userinfo3 FLTR 1: Message FLTR test error message.

Re: Wonder how many of these tales are true....
Define lonely and creepy :-).. If you mean deathly quiet, its actually inviting.. I have been to a few places around South Jersey, and from that site, they make Cape May to be the most haunted town in Jersey.. I actually liked that town for its natural – almost untouched landscape.. Those little streams and small waterfalls (I think its called Childs Fall) were pretty places.. Sinking sand is not as treacherous as it is made out to be. if you can swim in water which is a whole lot less denser than sinking sand , you can ‘swim’ on sinking sand.. The key here is swim – and not try to walk or run away.. you literally lay down and crawl out of it as if you were swimming.. So unless there is some deadly creature like an alligator or a crocodile around, there is not much to worry about.. I had seen a show once on Discovery channel where some expert said it’s the fear and myth around how dangerous sinking sand can be, that makes most people panic and become victims of it..

I can’t vouch for any of these tales, but I can tell you there’s over a million acres of pines trees sand called the “Pine Barrens” in NJ. The Pine Barrens are as beautiful, lonely creepy as it gets. Miles miles of two lane roads with scrubby pine trees on either side. Every so often there’s a sandy one lane trail off to one side or the other. Turn off onto one of these roads. It just gets lonelier creepier. You might find a quarry but don’t get too close – you could be up to your knees in sand still sinking before you know it. You might see an old wreck of an abandoned car with bullet holes in every square inch. And then there are the remains of what looks like an animal carcass. Now try to find your way back out to the main road. The Pine Barrens is where the Jersey Devil is said to live. It was also an episode of The Sopranos, the one where Paulie Christopher take a Russian mobster into the woods (the Pine Barrens), end up getting lost have to spend the night in an abandoned vehicle. No wonder many of the places listed on the web page are in or around the Pine Barrens. On Fri, Mar 16, 2012 at 4:51 PM, Joe Martin D'Souza jdso...@shyle.net wrote: ** Is there any truth to it???
