RUG 2000+ shirts

2013-08-01 Thread A R Kosch
Hello ARSLISTers.

(I remain extremely grateful for the support this list provided me over the 
years while I maintained/managed Remedy at Kansas State University!)

I want to freecycle some of my Remedy RUG shirts (see inventory below) to 
anyone who wants them.  I am retired now and am downsizing.  I'm happy to mail 
them within the US.  Don't care if someone wants only one. 

RUG 2000 polo short sleeves light greenish color M 100% cotton
RUG 2001 polo short sleeves white L 100% cotton
RUG 2003 t-shirt w/ high ribbed collar long sleeves medium gray S 90% cotton 
10% poly
RUG 2004 polo w/ white trim short sleeves black S 100% cotton
RUG 2004 "Remedy Support 2004 World Tour" t-shirt short sleeves black S 100% 
cotton
RUG 2005 polo long sleeves white S 50% cotton 50% poly

I thought I always asked for larger shirts but I guess my memory is fading!  If 
you have questions you can email me directly (arkosch at k-state.edu OR arkosch 
at pobox.com).  Ann Kosch

Does it matter what we think? In the end you have to assess what it is about 
the document that bothers you enough that you will not sign it (and thus will 
not get the chance at the job … at least through this recruiter).

If I were being asked to sign the document, I would amend it in the following 
ways:

1. The specific company you will be interviewing with must be stated in the 
letter. I know they will get paranoid about letting you know the name but you 
can counter that in two ways:

  a. Knowing the name of the company does not tell you which 
Division/Department/Branch/whatever needs the work done, nor does it tell you 
the contact information of the hiring manager.

  b. You need to protect yourself, to ensure that ANOTHER recruiter does not 
also claim to "introduce" you to the same company, putting you in double 
jeopardy.

2. Limit the recruitment on your behalf to just this one opportunity. If he 
really has an opportunity…

3. Spell out that "introduction" means that you obtain an interview. The 
recruiter sending your resume to someone does not count, as that is a one-way 
introduction.

4. Cut the penalty down to $1,000, unless he is willing to spell out exactly 
how the damages are "significant". Put another way, he has to prove, either in 
writing before the fact, or in court after the fact, that the damages and 
expenses are material.

5. Cut the time down to one month after the last interview date. No one looking 
to hire is going to wait more than one month for you to come on board, so why 
should you be on the hook longer?

I love the stuff people put in contracts and agreements. You probably took him 
aback by actually reading it! Good for you.

Re: Recruiters Odd NDA

2013-08-01 Thread David Ferguson
It's basically just saying that you won't cut the recruiter out the deal by
taking a job directly with the firm he introduced you to.   I've never used
a recruiter so I don't know how standard this is but with hiring companies
out there screwing recruiters out of their fees it looks like he is just
putting the penalty on you if you take a job outside of him with any
company he had sent your resume to or had you interview with.

The only thing you can't really control is who he shares your resume with,
 so that would be the piece to remove or alter.   He needs to have a
penalty clause with his customer for that not you.

An NDA before the job offer. Something is not passing the smell test here.
Also I have an issue with the line "is marketing your skills and for a
period of 3 months thereafter". I have seen them for a certain job (for
example only he can represent you for job order xxx at Google). But this is
to vague, at least for me.

 

Unless you need the work, I would run away.

Personally, I would responds with my own contractual clause, such as...

1) During the period for which the Company markets ENTERNAMEHERE's ("My", 
"Myself", "Me") skills, the Company shall perform no action that, in My 
opinion, reflects poorly upon My character or professionalism.  Furthermore, 
the Company shall not market My skills nor introduce Me to a Customer without 
written approval from Myself.  

2) The Company shall not provide any written documentation to any Customer 
concerning Myself that contains spelling, grammar, or mathematical errors.

3) The Company agrees to pay Me an hourly stipend ("Stipend") of $125 for each 
Evaluatory interview.  The Stipend begins when I leave My home and ends upon My 
return to said home.  The Stipend shall be remitted to Me within 14 days of 
said Evaluatory interview. The Company agrees to reimburse within 60 days any 
Evalutory interview related travel expenses.

4) In the event the Company breaches the provisions of this Agreement, the 
Company agrees to pay Me, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, a further 
sum of US Dollars One Hundred Thousand. The Company acknowledges that 
liquidated damages in such amount is reasonable under the circumstances in 
light of the fact that significant damages and expenses will be suffered or

Scott:

 

I do see where the guy is coming from – he’s looking after his own interests, 
and I can understand his wanting to do that.  I can even imagine a few 
experiences which may have prompted the writing of that particular NDA.  I 
think the problem is, he’s so busy looking after his own interests that he 
doesn’t really think about how confining the arrangement being proposed is for 
the people he’s claiming to serve by hooking them up with prospective 
employers.  I can’t imagine anyone except someone desperate agreeing to that.  
While it can be helpful to work with recruiters, that particular arrangement 
seems a bit too one-sided in his side’s favor to me.

 

And if he’s pressuring you, on the one hand, I can appreciate that he’s out 
hustling to try and find people, but on the other, he really does need to leave 
things up to you.  Letting people make their own decisions is basic respect, 
and if he has a valid position with competitive wages to offer, he shouldn’t 
need to pressure you – you’re either interested or you’re not.  So either he’s 
a basically decent guy who is simply trying too hard or else he’s a 
not-so-decent sort with some other agenda motivating him.

 

Personally, I’d probably steer clear.  I see enough yellow flags here that 
working with “the Company” seems like a risk I’d prefer to avoid.

 

Best of luck,

Re: [EXTERNAL] Recruiters Odd NDA

2013-08-01 Thread Tommy Morris
You can always counter the NDA and send back your own wording for them to agree 
to. I absolutely would not agree to pay the liquidation penalty (most likely 
the recruiter's fee which is normally based upon the negotiated salary) and 
then an addition 10k. All this recruiter would have to do is "blast fax" your 
resume out and then he/ she has introduced you to every company whether they 
are hiring or not.
I agree though that if something makes you uncomfortable then don't do it. 
There are plenty of other agencies and opportunities out there.

I do see where the guy is coming from – he’s looking after his own interests, 
and I can understand his wanting to do that.  I can even imagine a few 
experiences which may have prompted the writing of that particular NDA.  I 
think the problem is, he’s so busy looking after his own interests that he 
doesn’t really think about how confining the arrangement being proposed is for 
the people he’s claiming to serve by hooking them up with prospective 
employers.  I can’t imagine anyone except someone desperate agreeing to that.  
While it can be helpful to work with recruiters, that particular arrangement 
seems a bit too one-sided in his side’s favor to me. 

  

And if he’s pressuring you, on the one hand, I can appreciate that he’s out 
hustling to try and find people, but on the other, he really does need to leave 
things up to you.  Letting people make their own decisions is basic respect, 
and if he has a valid position with competitive wages to offer, he shouldn’t 
need to pressure you – you’re either interested or you’re not.  So either he’s 
a basically decent guy who is simply trying too hard or else he’s a 
not-so-decent sort with some other agenda motivating him. 

  

Personally, I’d probably steer clear.  I see enough yellow flags here that 
working with “the Company” seems like a risk I’d prefer to avoid.

I understand the 'reason' behind the NDAand it's not really an NDA...more 
of a contractthe wording of it is a bit harsh...but basically they have 
probably been bitten before with bringing a person to a prospective client, and 
then had that consultant go directly to the customer and get hired, removing 
them from the mix, and cutting out their 'cut' of the moneythe part that is 
'limiting' in their power on this seems to be the part that Lisa latched onto 
of 'Introduced by the Company'so basically, this is limiting their power to 
not be all companies that they do business with, but companies that you came 
to, as part of your relationship with 'the Company'while I'm not lawyer, I 
don't see anything all that harmful in this contract.

Re: Crystal Reports - Why doesn't mine work?

Thanks Jason, I thought so, but another developer is insisting this is
not true.

But I'm still confused.  Out of the box workflow to print a CI uses a
.rpt file.

Specifically this workflow.  As you can see they are passing the Report
target as Crystal and it's opening up the report called CI Ticket on the
Report form.  Just wondering why it works for OOB but not customization.
Magic? :)

workflow
for the "CI Ticket" workflow, they run a process:
PERFORM-ACTION-SET-PREFERENCE 23235 1.  This sets the ODBC User

I added this run process to my workflow and now I get a

Anything that appears in the Application List is an entry point to a Form,

Re: Data Load Console Confusion!

2013-08-01 Thread Warren R. Baltimore II
I found the problem.

It's a bug.  The filter "CTM:SHR:ValidatePersonExist_203" is attempting to
validate the user id on the worklog entry against CTM:People.  The problem
is that it is using the qualification 'Person ID' = $Person ID$.

Person ID on the CTM:People form is the entry id field!  Person ID on the
work log form is the user id.  It will never work.
This filter is there to allow you to validate information that had already
been promoted but not in the staging forms anymore.  But in it's current
form will never work.

Re: Midtier 7.6 sp 4 on websphere 8 is not working, any suggestions?Partially Resolved

2013-08-01 Thread pascale . sterrett
Deyon,

We are on Websphere 8 with the latest patch.
It is a clustered environment without the session replication enabled.
We have the session affinity (sticky bit) done between F5 and the web 
servers.
And yes we have applied all the KA377228 recommended configurations

On a side note, in the Application Server configuration tool in websphere, 
where you enable the cookies, make sure that they click on the enable 
cookies to set the context path to the mid tier root path.
Our web server team missed that part.  Took almost a month to resolve that 
issue  Just saying
Thank you,

Pascale Sterrett

Automate Change Work Info Notes

2013-08-01 Thread Brittain, Mark
Hi All,

In Remedy 6.3 we have a Change Request with a maintenance tab. On that tab are 
the fields: Implementation Plan, Risk Advanced Testing, Test Plan, Acceptance 
Plan and Rollback.  I also have workflow in place to force the users to fill 
out these fields. Now that we have moved to ITSM 7.6.04 I need to implement 
something similar but would prefer not to add these fields if I really don't 
have to do so.

In the Work Info Notes there are Work Info Types Such as Install Plan, Test 
Plan and Backout Plan. One thought is that if certain conditions are met, a set 
of filters would create the Work Info Notes. Anyone done something like this? 
If so how did you do it and what was the condition that executed the Work Order 
Notes creation?

Thanks
Mark

OK this is partially resolved for us.

Our web server team rebuild our websphere environment, and this time they 
finally did listen to us and did NOT apply the session replication. and it 
is almost working perfectly.
We do have one small issue of having  to log twice before being able to 
get into the application.  But at least we are getting in now.

It is also failing on Solaris.  The successful test was done with the

to logon using the native logon page from BMC, we have the exact same

So not the AIX build at all.

Re: Crystal Reports - Why doesn't mine work?

2013-08-01 Thread Kemes, Lisa A DLA CTR INFORMATION OPERATIONS
False alarm, for testing purposes I had my report set to Web not Crystal
so it couldn't find it, as soon as I changed it to Crystal, it found it
and I get the same error as before: "Error during processing: ARERR
[9260] Report location is missing from report  settings configuration

Stuart when you said " As long as the .rpt report is defined correctly
in Remedy and has appropriate w/f flow to trigger it and provide it the
data then you do not need to have Crystal Reports Server. Remedy itself
will handle the invocation and display." Did you mean through the
MidTier or User Tool?

I'd like to get this working in the MidTier.  It works just fine in User
Tool.

for the "CI Ticket" workflow, they run a process:

I added this run process to my workflow and now I get a different error:

Lisa if you have Crystal reports server on your PC then your midtier can

that you actually have Chris or reports developer on your PC and not

for the "CI Ticket" workflow, they run a process:
PERFORM-ACTION-SET-PREFERENCE 23235 1.  This sets the ODBC User
Underscores field to "Yes" on the AR System User Preference form.

I added this run process to my workflow and now I get a different error:

Error during processing: ARERR [9246] Cannot find report 
of type Crystal for form  on server .  Please
see your administrator.

I'm getting closer!!  :)

As long as the .rpt report is defined correctly in Remedy and has
appropriate w/f flow to trigger it and provide it the data then you do
not need to have Crystal Reports Server. Remedy itself will handle the
invocation and display.

Have you checked that the report works external to Remedy using the CR
developer to run it? Note the report must be configured to run against
the OBDC Client.

Lisa if you have Crystal reports server on your PC then your midtier can
use it you just need to install a midtier portion on your Crystal
reports server and it will  show, However I have a sneaking suspicion
that you actually have Chris or reports developer on your PC and not
Krista reports server which is like the $14,000 version so just check
that

Thanks Patrick!

I believe I have CR Developer on my PC.  We do have Crystal Reports
server, but are not using it right now (long story).  But I was pretty
sure that I could still create a report using CR Developer, create a
.rpt file and invoke it using work flow (just like they do using the
Print button on CI's), which invokes their own Crystal Report without
any problems.

 I'll keep chugging through.  :)

Re: Crystal Reports - Why doesn't mine work?

2013-08-01 Thread Kemes, Lisa A DLA CTR INFORMATION OPERATIONS
Thanks Stuart, 

I'm assuming my workflow works, because it works in the User Tool just
fine.  I also run the report in CR Developer and it works just fine
(invoking the ODBC Client).

I even took an out of the box .rpt that BMC uses and connected it to my
form in CR Developer, deleted all the fields, added one of my field from
my form,  added it to my record in the Report form and it's still giving
me this error as though I need a Crystal Report server location from
report settings configuration page.  

Thank you for answering my main question though.  It SHOULD work
(without a CR Server), and that's what I wanted to make sure.  

I even took another out of the box .rpt file, created a query on one of
the fields and ran the report, invoking the ODBC client and I typed in
MY credentials.  Saved the report and readded it back to the CI Ticket
record on the Report form.  Works just fine.  

Must be my workflow.  If anyone has any other things I should look into,
I'd appreciate it!

Thank you!!

Lisa

Re: Data Load Console Confusion!

2013-08-01 Thread Vyom Labs Support
Hi, 

 

  There are 21 spread sheet tabs(sheet(tab) 2 CTM:People and tab 15
CTM:PeopleWorklog)  on the spreadsheet file People.xls which we keep in
folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\BMC
Software\DataManagementClient\7.6\Spreadsheets\Foundation. 

After converting this file to CSV we import this CSV Files, So when data
gets imported before promoting we need to validate it.

So for resolving the issue of 108:invalid person which is on tab 15
CTM:PeopleWorklog we need to validate all the records on the tab 2
CTM:People.

Errors on the tab(sheet) 2  can be like 118-invalid company, 119-invalid
department, 162-invalid client type. we need to correct these errors first
then validate again error 108-Invalid Person gets resolved.

Subject: Data Load Console Confusion!

 

** 

ARS 7.6.04 patch1

ITSM 7.6.04

Windows 2008 R2 Server running against MS SQL.  Running user tool on the
server.

 

I've uploaded via the Data Load Console about 4 records into the People
form.  Now, I'm trying to load associated Work Log/work history.

 

I'm using the People spreadsheet and have loaded tab 15 with the
information.  Everything is being loaded with an Activity Type of General
Information.  Each entry has the same Person ID as the corresponding record
already in CTM:People.

 

The problem that I am having is every record when I validate is coming back
with an error 108 - Invalid Person.

 

I've followed the workflow on the CTM:LoadPeopleWorkLog form, and from what
I see, the person id should be validated almost immediately as the record
exists in CTM:People, but obviously, something is going wrong

 

Has anybody ever seen this happen before?

I tried to upload the 7.603 Mid Tier manual but it was too big and got
rejected by the listserv; that said it wasn't very different from the
online version. Can email it to your personal address if you like -
let me know.
