Re: Remedy and SQL injection attacks

I think we've found that Remedy automatically escapes commands to the
database most of the time, we'll log a bug for that pretty soon now.

 Subject: Remedy and SQL injection attacks

 Hello Everyone,

 Here is an issue I have just become aware of, and am wondering how
 Remedy handles the danger, or if it even is a danger.

 It seems that if a web page accepts data input, and uses that data to
 query a database, the user can insert a value like:

 whatever;do something nasty;--.

 Then if the web page uses this value to query the database, the database
 will actually perform the do something nasty command, which could be
 anything from dropping a table to giving somebody administrator
 permissions.

 (For a neat little cartoon illustrating this danger see:
 http://xkcd.com/327/.)

 So my question is, Does this apply to Remedy data input or queries?
 Suppose somebody queries a Remedy form for entries where a particular
 field = whatever;do something nasty;--.  Or they enter their name as
 whatever;do something nasty;--?  Will the database do something nasty,
 or does Remedy take precautions against it, or is there no danger in the
 first place?

Re: DSO from 7.x to 6.3...Is it Possible?

2008-01-16 Thread Remedy
Technical speaking there should not be problem. In general you will get only
DSO features of 6.3 on both the servers.

To troubleshoot your problem, check to see if DSO forms are visible from
Admin tool/user tool on the server that is reporting the error, if not then
there is a DSO License issue as the error states. Deleting the multilicense
file and restarting the ARS may resolve the license issue, considering you
have a valid DSO license.

 Does anyone know if it's possible to DSO from a 7.x server to a 6.3server? I 
 have a user who's trying to do this, and the DSO log on the
 7.x server is saying that the 6.3 server is not licensed – even though it
 is.  We DSO to and from the 6.3 server to about a dozen other servers all
 day long.

Subject: Resolved: Server Configuration Recommendations

I wanted to follow-up and provide some changes I made that had a HUGE
impact on performance and resolved the majority of our problem.

Although we had 16GB on the system, the majority of it was not being
used and performance monitor showed everything was waiting for disk.
Average disk queue length was long and the bar never dropped off 100.
The SQL Server service had allocated memory/virtual memory up to 1.7 GB
but was holding steady at that amount.

We're running Windows 2003 Enterprise (32-bit) and the documentation
stated SQL Server 2005 will not exceed the virtual memory setting on
Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) unless you enable AWE memory allocation.
There was also an enable lock pages in memory option that I enabled
for the account SQL Server was running under--but it appears this may
not be needed unless you are running under Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
The setting by default is off in SQL Server 2005.  I also updated the
Virtual memory settings on the server to system managed which
increased it by 800%.

After restarting SQL Server, the SQL Server service memory usage dropped
from 1.7GB to 130M and the paging file jumped from about 2.6 GB to
almost 7 GB.  The processors are two to three times busier now but still
only averaging about 30%.  The physical memory in use jumped by 4 GB and
you can tell SQL Server is now going well beyond the virtual server
limits and 4GB limits imposed by the operating system.

In summary, the database was not being allowed to exceed the virtual
memory limits and 4GB operating system limit shared with everything
else.  Now that is has plenty of breathing room, it's flying right
along.  There is still a lot of tweaking to do but enabling AWE
allocation made a huge difference.

Thanks for all your suggestions.  If you are running SQL Server 2005 on
a Windows Server 32-bit version with more than 4GB, check this option
out.

Search shows only results list

2008-01-16 Thread Dwayne Martin
Hello Everyone,

We have a user who runs searches on the AST:ComputerSystem form (Asset 
Management Module).  In the morning when she queries the form she sees only the 
results list, not a split panel.  She can double-click on any of the rows and 
see the entry in a separate panel, but can’t get the split panel.  No other 
users have reported this problem, and this user doesn’t see it in other forms.  
By afternoon it has gone away, and searches return a split panel.

She reinstalled the WUT but that didn’t help.  

Any suggestions?  (Gremlins maybe?)

There is a lot more performance tuning to do but it was amazing the
difference this made.  I was curious why SQL Server wasn't taking
advantage of the extra memory on the system.  All of this is explained
in the SQL Server 2005 online help.

If you use a Preference server check her entry in the AR System User
Preference form.
On the General tab there is a check box under the On Search settings to
Show Result List Only

If this is set by default for her she will get that condition even after
a reinstall of the WUT.
When it goes away it could be because of other forms default views
changing the settings.

Perhaps but page 19 of the performance tuning whitepaper recommends 3 times the 
number of processors for Fast and 5 times the processors for List (24 and 40).  
We could also have as many as 400 users and also some web users so this is 
intended to cover future growth.

 All,



 We're running into some performance problems recently.  I upgraded the
 server a few days ago (operating system, database, CPUs, memory, queues,
 etc, and it hasn't helped much.  Basically, it takes longer to search and
 create tickets as more and more people log in (as expected) but the server
 has plenty of available CPU, plenty of memory, and plenty of bandwidth so it
 appears there is a bottleneck somewhere.



 8 CPUs

 16GB Memory

 Windows Server 2003 Enterprise

 SQL Server 2005 Enterprise

 ARS v7.0.1 P5 (CSS and custom apps-no ITSM)

 24 Fast, 40 List



 It flies with about 40 people, becomes sluggish with 80, and gets real slow
 with 100.  I would expect this system to be able to handle a much larger
 load.  Since the running CPU usage and disk usage is fairly low, I'm looking
 for advice.



 Everything is currently installed on the same server and on the same drive
 (although these are raid drives).  Is it possible we're seeing contention
 over disk resources and I/O?  Any advice on determining where the bottleneck
 is or from people administering a large number of users?  How much advantage
 would be gained by running the AR Server on another drive or box separate
 from the database?  Is it reasonable to expect to only get 100 concurrent
 users (using the WUT) on a server of this size?



 Looking in the docs and whitepapers but any advice would be helpful since
 this is impacting us now.

Re: Problem with E-mail Engine Upgrade from 5.1.2 to 6.3

2008-01-16 Thread Cliff A
What OS are you running?  I found that for Windows server I additionally
had to uninstall the email engine via the add/remove programs.  The
email engine is then just a straight install.  NB You have to re
configure with your original settings.

Hello all,

 

I had no problem upgrading Remedy 5.1.2 to 6.3 except the e-mail engine.
I read the previous thread where it was said that I will have to
manually delete all the e-mail forms. I did this but still was not able
to upgrade. Please advise how I should go about upgrading the e-mail
engine. Thanks in advance.

Q: Email Engine and CPU Usage

2008-01-16 Thread Craig Carter
Has anyone noticed the Email Engine service grabbing all of the CPUs
when running?  When the Email Engine is not running, CPU usage stays in
a reasonable range (say 40-60%).  As soon as it is started, it runs the
CPUs up to 90-100% and you see a repeating pattern of maxing the CPUs,
then it drops off for a couple of seconds, and then runs back up.  As
soon as you stop the service, the CPU usage drops back to normal.  This
happens even when there are no pending send messages in AR System
Email Messages form.

 

Running ARS v7.0.1 P5 on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise/SQL Server 2005.
Basically curious if this is normal behavior...

Sending emails to a Blackberry

Hey all- I know I've seen this discussed before, but can't find anything

We have a group Blackberry that is for after hours use by our help desk
team.  It is set to receive emails from an address which goes to
everyone on the help desk.  It works when emails are sent from Outlook,
but not when sent from Remedy.  I tried going to the messages form and
sending one directly from there, but still nothing.

 

Is there something special I need to do for it to work?

Actually, it already is and we've been running it like this for over a
year (once we passed 100,000 accounts).

 

It's processing the email fine and it starts right up.  This is after
startup and while it is running.

 

I'll be rebooting the entire server later (off hours) to see if this
clears up but I wanted to ask.  Currently have it running on private RPC

  All,
 
 
 
  We're running into some performance problems recently.  I upgraded the
  server a few days ago (operating system, database, CPUs, memory, queues,
  etc, and it hasn't helped much.  Basically, it takes longer to search and
  create tickets as more and more people log in (as expected) but the server
  has plenty of available CPU, plenty of memory, and plenty of bandwidth so it
  appears there is a bottleneck somewhere.

  It flies with about 40 people, becomes sluggish with 80, and gets real slow
  with 100.  I would expect this system to be able to handle a much larger
  load.  Since the running CPU usage and disk usage is fairly low, I'm looking
  for advice.
 
 
 
  Everything is currently installed on the same server and on the same drive
  (although these are raid drives).  Is it possible we're seeing contention
  over disk resources and I/O?  Any advice on determining where the bottleneck
  is or from people administering a large number of users?  How much advantage
  would be gained by running the AR Server on another drive or box separate
  from the database?  Is it reasonable to expect to only get 100 concurrent
  users (using the WUT) on a server of this size?
 
 
 
  Looking in the docs and whitepapers but any advice would be helpful since
  this is impacting us now.

I went to the messages form and tried sending 2 emails with text in the

BODYTest2/BODY.  Neither went through.  If the plain text emails
were this issue, should that have worked, or do I need to set up a

a minor modification to an active link. I believe it's because the

Not sure what setting the view to List would do over Detail? It didn't work 
though. Set it to List, opened an active link, modified it, hit save and sat

Re: Log SQL in Admin

2008-01-16 Thread Eli Schilling
Dylan,
 
I may be wrong but I have always expected that kind of performance when
operating outside of Development Cache mode.  When you operate in normal
conditions the server maintains a cache of all actively used forms and
workflow.  When you make a change its not written directly to this
cache; instead the cache has to be copied, updated with your change and
then written back over the production cache.  Although your work is
performec over the Admin thread the cache update happens on the fast
thread(s) (I think) and user actions will always take precedence.
 
When you switch to Development cache mode all of your changes are
written directly to the cache and your changes will always take
precedence over user actions.  If you leave development cache on for any
extended period of time you'll start receive complaints of poor
performance from your users.
 
Cheers!
Eli

Re: Tasks

2008-01-16 Thread strauss
Yes, it is a separate subsystem in ITSM 7, but you have no template
capability for tasks outside of Change Management, so it isn't much of a
labor saving device.
 
There WAS an Incident Task Template module addition to Service Desk 7 in
ITSM 7 Patch 9002, but BMC failed to update it to work properly under
either ITSM Patch 004, 005, or 006, so I have dropped it from my
installations.  It must have been the pet project of someone who was
deprecated from the workforce last summer.  I had kept an issue open on
the problem since mid 2007, initially opened in 2/2007 over several of
the glaring discrepancies in the installation documentation for patch
9002, but it was closed by support last August with a promise to let me
know when patch 9002 had been updated.  The problem remains - patch 9002
is still on the patch site, but is basically unsupported and outdated,
and the installation instructions were never corrected.  More quality
software from BMC for those of you with masochistic tendencies.

We have a group Blackberry that is for after hours use by our help desk

everyone on the help desk.  It works when emails are sent from Outlook,
but not when sent from Remedy.  I tried going to the messages form and
sending one directly from there, but still nothing.

 

Is there something special I need to do for it to work?

Hi Jason,

I did install myself the SLM 7.0.1p2 with MSSQL 2005 and Windows Server
2003? locally on a Dell D820 laptop under VMWare Server at the advice of a
IT support guru opposed to VMWare Workstation, Server license being free ...
and Workstation running into unspecified errors during install.

I was able to configure the USBs under VMWare Server to recognize the CD
unit ... there was a learning curve for the VMWare configuring, but not that
bad ...

Don't know the differences between them.

Oh and my home pc has that vmx image running under VMWare WorkStation
software, though not installed by me ...

I had to use a template and select the fields that I wanted included. In

Maybe Fred has a point here. I have had the Exchange server admins

Subject: Sending emails to a Blackberry

** 

Hey all- I know I've seen this discussed before, but can't find anything
specifically about it.  

 

We have a group Blackberry that is for after hours use by our help desk
team.  It is set to receive emails from an address which goes to
everyone on the help desk.  It works when emails are sent from Outlook,
but not when sent from Remedy.  I tried going to the messages form and
sending one directly from there, but still nothing.

 

Is there something special I need to do for it to work?

 

Thanks,

Chris Moore

I assume it is since it can receive emails sent from Outlook at the same
address.  I don't really claim to know much about how email/exchange
works though!

 

I did find an old post which said Blackberries email client looks for a
line in the header that says This is a multi-part message in MIME
format.  I'm working on setting up a HTML header with that to see it
that works, but am still open to suggestions.

Is the address for the Blackberry an address in your company's Exchange

sending to that address.

Nope-that wasn't it- at least I don't think it was- here's what I did.  

 

I went to the messages form and tried sending 2 emails with text in the

BODYTest2/BODY.  Neither went through.  If the plain text emails
were this issue, should that have worked, or do I need to set up a

Do you receive the email message in Outlook from an address which goes
to everyone on the help desk?

We had a problem sending email to Verizon cell phones and it turned out
to be the way Verizon handled text email. It seems that it worked better
as an HTML formatted message. 

We added an email template and the messages went through.

ITSM7 Data Management Tool

2008-01-16 Thread McClure, Don
Abstract:  Beware of this product.  It may not be a good fit for your logical 
environment, consuming more work than manual entry for similar data-your 
mileage may vary.

Full Disclosure:  We are implementing and fielding ARS7x/ITSM7y/CMDB2.z via an 
architecture previously described at length by Dr. Christopher Strauss.  The 
ITSM Data Management Tool (DMT) was exercised and following observations were 
developed.

-  workstation portion of DMT is a collection of spreadsheets and 
conversion macros-translation: must run on machine with Microsoft Office (not 
on any of my servers, be design!!!).   Text files in *.csv format are then 
transferred to server for usage by batchfile-driven importcmd.exe.
-  Foundation data handling is straightforward for companies, 
locations, organizations, support groups, business times, holidays.  Next, the 
fine print--CAUTION:
-  Conversion macro caused individual data values to be enclosed in 
quotation marks within the csv, with other attendant string-handling issues, 
all inconsistently. Behavior was prevalent whenever  and / were used 
within data, but data containing those were NOT the only quoted strings, and 
were not always quoted themselves (Excel behavior, not peculiar to DMT)
-  Conversion macros created duplicate records in the csv from a single 
xls row, also inconsistently, and rows with above-mentioned characters were 
generally not the offenders.  Data-and conversion-inconsistencies disappeared 
with renaming of groups/organizations to remove the two offending characters.
-  Support Staff creation pose further cautions.  Designation of a user 
as 'support staff' is only justified by user's efforts in a support group, not 
presence in a particular organization/department, at least in our 
environment-and this tool proved extremely awkward trying to handle our 
particular relationship structure.
-  Candidate support staff records are created by template only (design 
of DMT), with said template overriding any other information keyed to the staff 
record itself
-  Support-staff template must also be unique for 
role-to-privilege-to-org/department combination (note-neither support group nor 
company accesses are even mentioned, and mechanism for granting multiple group 
memberships to one individual is cumbersome) (finally---end of CAUTION, from 
above)

The last two points combine for implication: this DMT topology (for support 
staff) might be useful for large numbers of staff in small number of support 
groups (beware, though-a workstation running Excel must gracefully sort and 
convert that large spreadsheet to multiple csv-files in one operation-and 
fifteen separate pages are involved!!). Our environment is approx 300 support 
staff in 93 support groups, and would require over 200 distinct templates.  
Further, the functions of our support groups are both distinct and disjoint, 
while sharing common members.  Yes, that means many support staffers provide 
more than one support-staff function, not unusual for an educational 
environment. Example:  one particular company employs eleven support staff who 
monitor eight activities; each activity is sufficiently unique to qualify for 
separate 'support group' status; and, each individual asserts a unique 
combination of groups monitored.  Therefore, my support-staff effort would 
require eleven templates just for that one company-one template per person, and 
twenty other operating companies to go.  I cannot see the value of creating 
numerous templates which will be used one time only, versus creating staffers 
directly-the DMT effectively multiplies(not reduces!) workload of CREATING 
support staff. The support staff paradigm herein described *might* make sense 
if template-uniqueness were tied to support-group combinations, not 
departments.  Finally, the DMT may/may not exhibit aforementioned misbehaviors 
in other environments.

Our usage of this DMT will probably be limited to data in first bullet above 
only.   Customer-CTM:People records are created/maintained by a customized 
importation with daily updates, so the DMT People capability is not applicable 
to this University, *except* for support staff, and this DMT will therefore not 
be used for people.  What a shame-support-staff management was our initial 
motivation for examining this product at all!!

FYI: SLM v7.1 install doc problem....

2008-01-16 Thread Carey Matthew Black
For those of you who have yet to attempt an install of SLM v7.1...
Please read

REF: v7.1.SLM-Installation Guide.2007.Nov.12.PDF-70078.pdf,  Page 35
 and optionally select the Disable Escalations option

-- It will produce errors during the install process if you disable
Escalations.
-- This is a known bug: 285865 - The doc bug on disabling
escalations and then running the install.
-- These errors will not be visible to the user of the (GUI) SLM v7.1
installer. ( You have to go find them in the slm_install_dir/Logs/*
files.)  ( I opened this bug  for that part 285870- Installer showing
100% complete when the installation had errors.)

( Just yet another install doc error for you to be aware of. Maybe
someone could actually fix the docs before the next customer gets the
same bad information and falls into the same hole?)

The suggestion that I received from Tech Support was to either:

A) [preferred] Role back your DB/OS to a backup and start over.
B) [should work too] Run the installer in overwrite mode
   -- Note that this option (by design) does not produce the
slm_install_dir/Logs/* files. ( I find that very hard to believe.
But that is what I was told. Maybe I did not get the whole memo on
that part?)

Sigh. Just thought someone out there might benefit from this
information before you do an SLM v7.1 install.

HTH.

Both of these are from modifying two different filters, neither of which
touches T106 which is OBJSTR:Class on my system. T106 only has 243 rows
of data so no clue why it should take so long to return a result.

from 10 - 60 seconds for it to commit when I hit the save button even on
a minor modification to an active link. I believe it's because the
remote sql server is bogging down but I can't prove it and I can't get
the sql admins to look at it without any proof. I have zero access to

** Sql logs will log all sql to the db from arserver.  Chances
are the wait time between the select statements you have above are
because whatever is doing those queries is waiting on other things; this
is all irrelevant to you original issue though.  Find the logs relevant
to your operation.  If you are modifying a regular form, grep the logs

neither of which touches T106 which is OBJSTR:Class on my system. T106
only has 243 rows of data so no clue why it should take so long to
return a result.

Subject: Log SQL in Admin


** 
Is it possible to log the sql queries the admin
tool makes when you modify a form?
I'm having major lag issues when I try and
update anything in my admin tool and it's frustrating the heck out of
me. It takes anywhere from 10 - 60 seconds for it to commit when I hit
the save button even on a minor modification to an active link. I
believe it's because the remote sql server is bogging down but I can't
prove it and I can't get the sql admins to look at it without any proof.
I have zero access to the sql server so I'm stuck without something to
get them to take a look.
Ideas anyone?

Crystal Enterprise, Windows, Samba, and Solaris

2008-01-16 Thread William Rentfrow
We are running a mid-tier on Unix.  Crystal Enterprise 10 is on a
separate Windows box.
 
The config says you need to use Samba or another similar product to
mount the Windows file system from Solaris.  Has anyone done this
another way?  For example we might try dual mounted NAS shared between
the two machines.  The network people say it should work.  I have never
tried that before.

Site question for ITSM 7

2008-01-16 Thread Ron Legters
I've come across a stumbling block in configuring ITSM 7, and I'm wondering if 
anyone else has dealt with something similar:

Many of my company's locations across the country have two completely different 
organizations in the same building. For example, our San Jose location is 
currently set up in HD6 as both 'Western Region - WE1 District - San Jose' and 
'PPS Western - Pacific District - San Jose'. This is how the location info for 
people who work for these organizations comes over from the HR System. In ITSM 
7, though, I can't have two sites with the same name, even if they're in 
different regions and site groups.

I've got some thoughts about how to proceed, but I'd love to hear from someone 
else who may have dealt with this or something similar.

we decided the quickest resolution was to prefix the site with a unique code to 
reflect the company or region.  This was seen where multiple companies have a

Re: Site question for ITSM 7

I misunderstood the problem.  You can configure your location structure and 
your organisational structures independently of each other.  Can you setup 
organisations to separate the business?  This would then allow people to belong 
to one site and the appropriate organisation without creating two sites.

Force Users to Use Update Button

I have a form, that has a status field.  It gets updated by a button
that pulls up a menu of status.  People keep free forming in the
status field which screws up the status etc.,  I changed the
permissions of the field but that does not allow the users to update
with the update button.  My other thought was to run an active link
that triggers an error on gain focus.  Which works, however, i am not
sure it is the correct method.  I just do not want to see in my status
field  missppelled statuses like Klosed or ClOsed  or whatever, any

James:

Most data integrity is best performed using filters.  If you're using a basic 
character menu, then you could build a pair of filters; the first one would see 
if the current Status value is in a string like Open, Pending, Closed (list 
all your allowed statuses), and the second filter would present an error if the 
Status value was not found in the string.  If you ever add a status value in 
the future, then you'll have to remember to update the list of allowed values 
in the first filter.

You can create ALIASES for a site and/or relate the same site to many
companies (if you're using multi-tenancy to represent your different
Regions).

In the Application Administration Form, go into the Advanced Configuration
Tab and select Foundatation Data .  Select Sites and query from there.  You
can see the setup of the sites and the alias feature might do what you are
expecting.

Resolution - Mid-Tier - Installing ISAPI_REDIRECT_DLL

2008-01-16 Thread Brian Gillock
I found that Tomcat could not be made a service.  Of course there were no such 
errors in the install logs, I found it by installing Tomcat separately.

Listers,

Can someone please help me with a Mid-Tier issue?  The issue is with the 
Mid-Tier 7.1 installation hanging trying to install the ISAPI_REDIRECT_DLL?  It 
just sits there, apparently doing nothing.

IIS 6.0

JDK 1.5_14-b03

ARS 7.1 Patch 01

Win 2003

 

Both are running on seperate VMs.  Connectivity is solid.  I turned on allow 
ISAPI extensions in IIS after the first attempt.  No help.  It's not producing 
any errors in the logs.  Just hangs.  I've checked the prereqs and don't think 
I missed anything.  

 

I've selected the option to install Tomcat.  Using the ARAdmin default password 
for the config. which I setup during the ARS install.  Cleared the drop downs 
for Preference and Home Page server and Data Vis servers.

 

Thanks all in advance!

Brian

Re: Resolution - Mid-Tier - Installing ISAPI_REDIRECT_DLL

2008-01-16 Thread strauss
In my experience the mid-tier 7.x installer will install tomcat as a
service on Windows 2003 servers when it installs it as the web server,
and will also install a configuration panel (unless another instance of
tomcat has already been installed by something else and already owns
the configuration panel).  You should install it as its own web server
(select other) rather than use it as the japp server for IIS since that
requires a plug-in and overhead that will affect performance.  When you
install mid-tier on IIS with only the tomcat japp server, it is not
installed as a separate service because it is only a plug-in to IIS and
starts and stops like IIS - via the IIS Admin service.  I only install
tomcat 5.5.17 as a component of mid-tier or 5.5.20 as a component of RKM
7.x; I do not doubt that the separate tomcat distributions don't install
the service wrapper for you, either - that's just one more reason why
I don't use them.
 
The config password for mid-tier has nothing to do with the ARAdmin
password for ARS (for the db).  The password that matters is the one you
set for external services during both installations (Application
Password for Mid-tier Administration on ARS install, Mid-Tier
Administration Password on mid-tier install).  It is not the same
password that you log into the mid-tier configuration page with.
