Re: FW: C API for ARDBC Plug-in

Hello,

First of all, thank you for your reply.
I really *don't* want to support everything, believe me! :)
If it is such a headache to write a test plugin, I really believe it would be a 
nightmare to write the whole thing
My final goal is to create an ardbc plugin to have certain search fields and a 
method to search a FileNet database.
But for now, I'm just trying to make a test plugin using the C skeleton file 
and implementing a dummy ARDBCGetMultipleFields method on it.
The sample I'm using as a guide is getemployeedata.c that I found on BMC 
site, but it doesn't work very well for me, as you can see by my previous mail. 


Kind regards,
Paulo Moreira

Hi,

To write a general ARDBC-plugin that supports everything, is quite a task.

You have problems of mapping forms, field and datatypes, as well as the nice 
ARQualifierStruct into something you can use against your external data source.

If you limit the functionality to a few specific things (forms/fields) and also 
limit the search capabilities, it is easier.

 Hello all,



 Can someone please provide me with some real-life samples on how to
 (properly) write a C ARDBC Plug-in for Remedy (I've also tried
 getemployeedata.c) ?

 So far I've read the C-API-Ref-710, used the ardbcskl.c and headers 
 from the samples directory and implemented the ARDBCGetListSchemas 
 method successfully.

 I'm having trouble implementing the ARDBCGetMultipleFields method, 
 which is not showing all the fields I insert to the array
 mapping-mappingList. Only the first one is shown.



 Please find below the source I'm trying to use:



 ARPLUGIN_EXPORT int ARDBCGetMultipleFields(

 void  *object,  /* IN; plug-in instance */

 ARCompoundSchema  *schema,  /* IN; form containing the data */

 ARFieldMappingList *mapping,/* OUT; list of fields */

 ARFieldLimitList  *limit,   /* OUT; corresponding field limits */

 ARUnsignedIntList *dataType,/* OUT; corresponding data types */

 ARStatusList  *status   /* OUT; status of the operation */

 )

 {

   FILE * pFile;

   pFile = fopen (myfile.txt,a);



if (schema-schemaType == AR_SCHEMA_VENDOR 

strcmp(schema-u.vendor.tableName, FORM_NAME) == 0)

{

   mapping-numItems = 3;



   mapping-mappingList =

  (ARFieldMappingStruct *) malloc(sizeof(ARFieldMappingStruct) 
 *

  mapping-numItems);

 if (mapping-mappingList == NULL) return AR_RETURN_ERROR;



   mapping-mappingList[0].fieldType = AR_FIELD_VENDOR;

   strcpy(mapping-mappingList[0].u.vendor.fieldName, file_id); 
 /* this is shown OK */

   mapping-mappingList[1].fieldType = AR_FIELD_VENDOR;

   strcpy(mapping-mappingList[1].u.vendor.fieldName, file_name);
 /* this is not */

 mapping-mappingList[2].fieldType = AR_FIELD_VENDOR;

   strcpy(mapping-mappingList[2].u.vendor.fieldName, file_date);



 if (pFile!=NULL)

 {

   fprintf (pFile, -//-\r\n);

   fprintf (pFile, %s\r\n,
 mapping-mappingList[0].u.vendor.fieldName);

   fprintf (pFile, %s\r\n,
 mapping-mappingList[1].u.vendor.fieldName);

   fprintf (pFile, %s\r\n,
 mapping-mappingList[2].u.vendor.fieldName);



   /* all these fields appear filled in on the log file 
 I'm creating at runtime */

 }



   limit-numItems = 3;



   limit-fieldLimitList =

  (ARFieldLimitStruct *) calloc(limit-numItems,

sizeof(ARFieldLimitStruct));



   if (limit-fieldLimitList == NULL)   return AR_RETURN_ERROR;



   limit-fieldLimitList[0].dataType = AR_DATA_TYPE_CHAR;

   limit-fieldLimitList[0].u.charLimits.maxLength = 20;

   limit-fieldLimitList[0].u.charLimits.menuStyle = 
 AR_MENU_APPEND;

   limit-fieldLimitList[0].u.charLimits.qbeMatchOperation = 
 AR_QBE_MATCH_ANYWHERE;

   limit-fieldLimitList[0].u.charLimits.fullTextOptions = 
 AR_FULLTEXT_OPTIONS_NONE;



   /* from this point on, nothing is recognized on Remedy, but is 
 show on the log file (?) */



   limit-fieldLimitList[1].dataType = AR_DATA_TYPE_CHAR;

   limit-fieldLimitList[1].u.charLimits.maxLength = 21;

   limit-fieldLimitList[1].u.charLimits.menuStyle = 
 AR_MENU_APPEND;

   limit-fieldLimitList[1].u.charLimits.qbeMatchOperation = 
 AR_QBE_MATCH_ANYWHERE;

   limit-fieldLimitList[1].u.charLimits.fullTextOptions = 
 AR_FULLTEXT_OPTIONS_NONE;

   limit-fieldLimitList[2].dataType = AR_DATA_TYPE_CHAR;

   limit-fieldLimitList[2].u.charLimits.maxLength = 22;

Re: Incident-occupied alerts?

2008-02-19 Thread Carey Matthew Black
Joslin,

First... Welcome to the world of ARS!
Second... Your post is dead on for this list and most welcome.
Third... I think you do not yet understand a few things about ARS. :)

I would specifically pick at this statement:

In Remedy, however, there is no alert until you do try to save, and
all of your work is lost because the other person, unbeknownst to you,
was in the incident making changes.


I disagree with that as a stated behavior of the AR System.

Specifically what actually happens is that most fields allow for users
to fight over the change in values. However, workflow can prevent this
and some ARS fields do not allow regression of content at all.

Let me try to be specific.

Lets say one record is fetched by two users one second a part. ( No
users committed any changes to the record in that second. )

Then User A changes two fields: 'Status'( a selection field) and
'Work Log'( a Diary field) to Work In Progress and I am working on
the ticket. and saves the record to the Database.

User B however, had to go get a bagel and when they returned they
updated the same two fields. However User B set 'Status' to
Rejected and 'Work Log' to This ticket should not have come to my
group. Please reroute this incident..

When User B saves the record what happens is actually this...

The ARS server checks to see if the record that is about to be updated
was updated AFTER the user fetched the record. ( This is part of the
API structure and is totally transparent to users.) If it was updated,
then the user is asked a question. I hate the way the question is
asked, but it is a question (on a v6.3 ARS server/client)


This record has been updated by another user since you retrieved it.
(ARWARN 1203)
Saving your changes will overwrite the changes made by that user. Do
you want to save your changes?
 Yes  No (buttons)


This maps to this error code in the system. (Really a warning is not
an error, but it is a system generated message all the same.)

Ref: ErrMsgsGuide-630.pdf Pg93

1203 Warning
This record has been updated by another user since you retrieved it.

The request you are attempting to save changes to has been modified by
another user since you last changed it. You can Save your changes over
the changes of the other user, or you can cancel the operation (not
save your changes), retrieve the request again, and re-enter your
changes.

If you are updating a diary field, your changes do not overwrite
changes made by the other user. If you are changing fields where the
data you enter is supposed to be the final value, continue with the
operation (saving your changes).


So...

If the user answers No then their changes are, by the users choice,
never sent to the DB at all. However, the local window retains the
changes so if the user clicks the Save button again they get the
(ARWARN 1203) message again. Since this is mostly a trivial case so I
will focus on the user answering Yes. :)

If the user answers Yes then their changes update the ticket
without them knowing what User A entered/updated.

If the change of the 'Status' fields value is regulated the update may
still fail if Work In Progress to Rejected is not allowed. (Or any
other values that were changed are disallowed etc...) If however that
is not a problem then the record will end up being 'Status' =
Rejected. The interesting part is that the 'Work Log' will still
have both users entries with the time stamps of when they added the
information to the 'Work Log' !

So no data is lost. Some data might be changed in an unexpected way,
but that is, IMHO, an application issue and not a system issue.

It is also worth noting that this system feature can be disabled by
the AR System developers on your ARS server. ( The message is not
displayed to the user, but the system behaves as if the user saw the
message and clicked Yes. AKA: ar.conf setting
Changed-By-Another-Check:F.)


However, after saying all of that about the base systems behaviour.

The feature your wanting might be best described as record locking.
This can be done via ARS applications, but has to be built by your
developers. It is a topic that has been discussed on this list many
times and there are examples of how to do this already.

Here is a link to a published example from an ARSList member:

rrrLock - Generic Record Locking
http://www.rrr.se/en/
  Click on Products on the left then selected RRR|Lock (free)
(http://www.rrr.se/en/products/rrrlock.html)

It should get your developers the general idea if this approach is
really what _has_ to be done. ( Personally, I do not like the design,
but some people just can not live without it. So it has to be built.)

HTH.

Just one question: there's a mapping-mappingList[i].u.vendor.fieldName that 
must be filled as it is the field name to use. There is (I believe) where my 
problem starts. How do you fill that property?


// Fields' mappings
if(mapping != NULL) {
mapping-numItems = numItems;
if((mapping-mappingList = (ARFieldMappingStruct 
*)calloc(mapping-numItems, sizeof(ARFieldMappingStruct))) == NULL)
return AR_RETURN_ERROR;

mapping-mappingList[1].fieldType = AR_FIELD_REGULAR;
}

6.  Describe how filters work?  They were actually looking how filters 
work in different phases... which led to the next question.
7.  Can you force a filter to fire all actions in the first phase?
8.  List all of the possible uses for guides.  They were looking for 
walking tables.
 
These are all pretty simple questions.  I also get some questions about 
turning on/off server features using the configuration files 
(ar.conf/ar.cfg).
 
Hope this helps some,

2008-02-19 Thread Eric Cleereman (IT)
Hi Satya,
 
I've gotten a ton of these from colleagues and friends who have me in
their contact lists, and who have registered for Yaari.  It seems Yaari
logs onto your email every day of two and send invites to all your
contacts over and over again.  Sometimes more than once a day.
 
I mean the following in as nice a way as possible:
 
Bad things happen when you share your login and password info.  Just
don't do it.  Treat email logins the same as bank logins.  Your contact
list, identity, and credibility are all valuable.  Why risk jeopardizing
them?
 
Please do us all a favor and change your Gmail password.  Yaari will
then suspend your account, and require you let them know your new
password.  Don't do it.  This should prevent Yaari from relaying through
your Gmail account again tomorrow, the day after, and so on.
 
If Yaari catches on to this, and starts spoofing directly from their
email server using cached contact list from a previous login, you may
want to consider cancelling your ARSList account, and setting up a new
account using a uncompromised email address.
 
If you really want to use Yaari, or any other service which requires
your email login info, just create a throwaway account to register with.
Throwaway email accounts take only a minute to create, and are a great
practice for preventing unwanted spam.  Go ahead and populate that
account address book with addresses such as [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], admin mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] @yaari.com
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ,etc...

Mid-Tier Required for Consuming a Web Service?

2008-02-19 Thread Peter Romain
Hi All,

A simple issue that hopefully has a simple answer!

Do I need to install Mid-Tier to consume a web service?

To quote the documentation:

AR System communicates with the web service through the Simple Object
Access Protocol (SOAP), involving the third-party web service server
(Apache AXIS) installed with the BMC Remedy Mid Tier.

If I don't need Mid-Tier is it hard to set up Apache AXIS or is there
another option?

2) Rather than guessing an answer if there was environment information
   needed for a meaningful answer, say so, and ask for the details.
Eventually everyone

Re: URGENT: Need help on Error loading preference from server

If I remember (and this is going back)...  When we used the 6.3 MidTier with

Subject: Re: URGENT: Need help on Error loading preference from server

Hi,

 1. Are you using a Preference Server?  And if so, is it a different 
 server than the AR Server that you are logging into?

The preference server is the same as the AR Server we are logging in to

 2.Have there been any other modification to your environment since 
 truncating the data?

We did not know of any modification to environment since the data was 
truncated. The DB was restarted, then the App then the Mid-Tier. But no other 
changes other than that CC

 3. Did you discover the Mid-Tier problem immediately after truncating 
 the data?

Truncating ended at around Feb 17, 4PM CST, users started experiencing the 
problem at Feb 18, 9:20AM CST

 4. Do ALL of your Mid-Tier users get this error?

So far, all the users we tried logging in on the Mid-Tier is getting this 
error. However, this does not occur on the Client Tool.

 Any additional details you may be able to provide would be helpful.

I was wondering if there is anyone out there on ARS 5.01.01 (patch
1232) that can send us a def file of their Remedy User Preference form? The 
fields look like they have been removed but I do not have any comparison (bad 
practice, we only have 1 environment both for our Dev and Prod)

Many thanks in advance!

Elinore

I am having the same issue after upgrading our DEV environment to ARS
7.1 Patch 1 on Sun Solaris.

Surprisingly, when talking to BMC support, I was assigned a new defect
number which should be resolved in Patch 3.  I would have thought after
seeing this on this list that it would have been reported.  Has anyone
else reported this and received a defect number?

In any case, defect number is SW00287847.  

Also of note, if the Support console is accessed via recent forms, it
works fine as well.  It only seems to happen as noted below when opening
the object list window.

Hi,

I have the same issue with Remedy User 7.1 using the Remedy Support
Console from ITSM v5.6 :

ITSM v5.6 installed on ARS v5.1.2 :
 - If I open Support console from object list using User 7.1 : crash
 - If I open Support console from object list using User 7.0.1 : OK
 - If I open Support console from Remedy Start Page using User 7.1 : OK
 - If I open Support console from Remedy Start Page using User 7.0.1 :
OK

ITSM v5.6 installed on ARS v7.1 :
 - If I open Support console from object list using User 7.1 : crash
 - If I open Support console from object list using User 7.0.1 : OK
 - If I open Support console from Remedy Start Page using User 7.1 : OK
 - If I open Support console from Remedy Start Page using User 7.0.1 :
OK

I tried to install AR User v7.1 P1 : same issue.

Have you some news about this issue (have you contact BMC support) ?

Best Regards,
Olivier

 Hello list,
 
 Has anyone seen any issues with Remedy Client 7.1.00 (the latest 
 Client) on ARS 6.03 patch 20?
 
 For example, if you open two Remedy Support Console at the same time, 
 your Client crashed.
 
 Thanks

 If I don't need Mid-Tier is it hard to set up Apache AXIS or is there

Re: Mid-Tier Required for Consuming a Web Service?

2008-02-19 Thread Carey Matthew Black
Peter,

Ref: http://ws.apache.org/axis/

Apache Axis is an implementation of the SOAP (Simple Object Access
Protocol) submission to W3C.

From the draft W3C specification:

SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchanging structured
information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It is an XML
based protocol that consists of three parts: an envelope that defines
a framework for describing what is in a message and how to process it,
a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of
application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing
remote procedure calls and responses.

This project is a follow-on to the Apache SOAP project.

Please see the Reference Library for a list of technical resources
that should prove useful.


It is the library they chose to use to implement their WebSerivce
Publish/consumption tools. ( The detail can be mostly ignored.) It
only matters when you find know issues with external WebService
providers that do not work with Apache Axis clients for some reason.
But  if those problems are found then there is very little you can do
about those issues, other than avoid using the OOB WebService stuff.

Re: Parameter is Incorrect error message

2008-02-19 Thread Lammey, Peter A.
Yes.  We experienced this issue when attaching a file using the Remedy
7.01 User client Patch 002 on Citrix.
Our partner support has asked us if we can try getting the latest patch
version of the User client (Patch 006) and see if this is an issue with
that client.
 
The error occurs if using the Remedy User client from citrix and if you
are attempting to attach a file located on your Client C: drive (or C
dollar on Client(C:))
The only workaround we found was to put the file you are attaching on a
network drive or change it to use the UNC path (ie. your machine name
and then c dollar).
 
Out of curiosity, what patch level is your User client on Citrix if you
are noticing this error from Citrix?

Phone Numbers

Greetings List!

This may be a bit strange. We have a form that is used  populated by one of
our customers. The data is sent electronically to third company.
Unfortunately, strange characters are being entered into the Phone Number
fields, which is causing an issue. The customer is requesting an error
message (not a replacement) when anything other than a digit or a hyphen is
entered.

Does anyone know of a way to do this (other than an extremely long Run If
qualification that lists every letter and symbol)?

Re: Mid-Tier Required for Consuming a Web Service?

2008-02-19 Thread Peter Romain
Thanks for the info.

It seems that the Remedy docs are in error when they say that axis is
loaded when mid-tier is installed.

I found the files were loaded from Jarl's info.

I hope your statement about the detail being ignored comes true!

The web services to be called are in Web Methods.

Thanks again.

Cheers

Peter




 Peter,

 Ref: http://ws.apache.org/axis/
 
 Apache Axis is an implementation of the SOAP (Simple Object Access
 Protocol) submission to W3C.

 From the draft W3C specification:

 SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchanging structured
 information in a decentralized, distributed environment. It is an XML
 based protocol that consists of three parts: an envelope that defines
 a framework for describing what is in a message and how to process it,
 a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of
 application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing
 remote procedure calls and responses.

 This project is a follow-on to the Apache SOAP project.

 Please see the Reference Library for a list of technical resources
 that should prove useful.
 

 It is the library they chose to use to implement their WebSerivce
 Publish/consumption tools. ( The detail can be mostly ignored.) It
 only matters when you find know issues with external WebService
 providers that do not work with Apache Axis clients for some reason.
 But  if those problems are found then there is very little you can do
 about those issues, other than avoid using the OOB WebService stuff.

Re: Parameter is Incorrect error message

We are running 7.0.01 patch 5 of Remedy User on Windows.  It seems to vary 
if the file is on the desktop or on a network drive.  I have seen it 
happen in both cases.  I have also seen it happen were the user was 
attached remotely as opposed to locally which worked for him.

Yes.  We experienced this issue when attaching a file using the Remedy 
7.01 User client Patch 002 on Citrix.
Our partner support has asked us if we can try getting the latest patch 
version of the User client (Patch 006) and see if this is an issue with 
that client.
 
The error occurs if using the Remedy User client from citrix and if you 
are attempting to attach a file located on your Client C: drive (or C 
dollar on Client(C:))
The only workaround we found was to put the file you are attaching on a 
network drive or change it to use the UNC path (ie. your machine name and 
then c dollar).
 
Out of curiosity, what patch level is your User client on Citrix if you 
are noticing this error from Citrix?

I've seen this, but only when running the user tool in Citrix and only when
trying to attach a file from the client's local drive (i.e. C$ on Client).

I have no workaround at the moment, other than to copy the file I wish to
attach to a network drive.

Q: Semi-Colons and Email Addresses in v7.0.1P5?

2008-02-19 Thread Craig Carter
All,

 

We recently upgraded from v6.3 P22 to v7.0.1P5 and it appears semi-colon
separator characters no longer work in Email address lists (CC line).
You get the invalid address separator message in the email log.  I can
leave comma separator equal true in the EmailDaemon.Properties file and
change them to commas and they are sent but I would normally turn those
off since we are on Exchange and commas are used in the names.

 

Anyone else notice this?

 

Windows Server 2003

Outlook 2003

ARS/Email Engine v7.0.1 P5

SQL Server 2005

 

 

//SIGNED//

Re: Semi-Colons and Email Addresses in v7.0.1P5?

2008-02-19 Thread Hall Chad - chahal
I just tested this on 7.0.1 patch 5 and it worked for me. Although I did
it by manually editing the 'TO' on an existing AR System Email Messages
entry and resetting 'Send Message' = Yes.

 

And I'm using SMTP instead of Exchange.

All,

 

We recently upgraded from v6.3 P22 to v7.0.1P5 and it appears semi-colon
separator characters no longer work in Email address lists (CC line).
You get the invalid address separator message in the email log.  I can
leave comma separator equal true in the EmailDaemon.Properties file and
change them to commas and they are sent but I would normally turn those
off since we are on Exchange and commas are used in the names.

 

Anyone else notice this?

Re: Incident-occupied alerts?

2008-02-19 Thread Joslin
Thanks Carey!

That's actually exactly what I was looking for, the record-lock
thing.  I forwarded that information on to my manager, who will see if
it is at all feasible to apply or duplicate.  We are currently doing
our best to resolve this with workflow, but old habits die hard.  We
have many people working the same queues, and so for now we are trying
to get in the habit of immediately assigning something to ourselves if
we don't want anyone else to touch it.  We have one person who
generally triages and assigns cases, but sometimes if you'd already
spoken to a customer you want to take their incident before it is
assigned to someone else.  In that case, it's a race to see who gets
to it first, you, or the supervisor assigning them.  This is where
we've been running into workflow issues.

Thanks again for all of the great info.  I look forward to learning
more about Remedy through this board!

Joslin  :-)

 Joslin,

 First... Welcome to the world of ARS!
 Second... Your post is dead on for this list and most welcome.
 Third... I think you do not yet understand a few things about ARS. :)

 I would specifically pick at this statement:
 
 In Remedy, however, there is no alert until you do try to save, and
 all of your work is lost because the other person, unbeknownst to you,
 was in the incident making changes.
 

 I disagree with that as a stated behavior of the AR System.

 Specifically what actually happens is that most fields allow for users
 to fight over the change in values. However, workflow can prevent this
 and some ARS fields do not allow regression of content at all.

 Let me try to be specific.

 Lets say one record is fetched by two users one second a part. ( No
 users committed any changes to the record in that second. )

 Then User A changes two fields: 'Status'( a selection field) and
 'Work Log'( a Diary field) to Work In Progress and I am working on
 the ticket. and saves the record to the Database.

 User B however, had to go get a bagel and when they returned they
 updated the same two fields. However User B set 'Status' to
 Rejected and 'Work Log' to This ticket should not have come to my
 group. Please reroute this incident..

 When User B saves the record what happens is actually this...

 The ARS server checks to see if the record that is about to be updated
 was updated AFTER the user fetched the record. ( This is part of the
 API structure and is totally transparent to users.) If it was updated,
 then the user is asked a question. I hate the way the question is
 asked, but it is a question (on a v6.3 ARS server/client)

 
 This record has been updated by another user since you retrieved it.
 (ARWARN 1203)
 Saving your changes will overwrite the changes made by that user. Do
 you want to save your changes?
  Yes  No (buttons)
 

 This maps to this error code in the system. (Really a warning is not
 an error, but it is a system generated message all the same.)

 Ref: ErrMsgsGuide-630.pdf Pg93
 
 1203 Warning
 This record has been updated by another user since you retrieved it.

 The request you are attempting to save changes to has been modified by
 another user since you last changed it. You can Save your changes over
 the changes of the other user, or you can cancel the operation (not
 save your changes), retrieve the request again, and re-enter your
 changes.

 If you are updating a diary field, your changes do not overwrite
 changes made by the other user. If you are changing fields where the
 data you enter is supposed to be the final value, continue with the
 operation (saving your changes).
 

 So...

 If the user answers No then their changes are, by the users choice,
 never sent to the DB at all. However, the local window retains the
 changes so if the user clicks the Save button again they get the
 (ARWARN 1203) message again. Since this is mostly a trivial case so I
 will focus on the user answering Yes. :)

 If the user answers Yes then their changes update the ticket
 without them knowing what User A entered/updated.

 If the change of the 'Status' fields value is regulated the update may
 still fail if Work In Progress to Rejected is not allowed. (Or any
 other values that were changed are disallowed etc...) If however that
 is not a problem then the record will end up being 'Status' =
 Rejected. The interesting part is that the 'Work Log' will still
 have both users entries with the time stamps of when they added the
 information to the 'Work Log' !

 So no data is lost. Some data might be changed in an unexpected way,
 but that is, IMHO, an application issue and not a system issue.

 It is also worth noting that this system feature can be disabled by
 the AR System developers on your ARS server. ( The message is not
 displayed to the user, but the system behaves as if the user saw the
 message and clicked Yes. AKA: ar.conf setting
 Changed-By-Another-Check:F.)

 However, after saying all of

3)  Web Services , Remedy API, Email templates, Direct SQL, creating view 
and database trigger and database programming….. depending on what suites to 
client and third party application 
4)  Creating failure over environments, database back – replication on 
vmware etc, 
5)  Big to answer I will update you on this next time, - user interface 
,end user component – directly reachable  to customers 
6)  Filter is server side component , depending on fire condition and 
qualification action will be perform on server.  Actions are listed in if 
actions tab, submit, modify any valid ar server operation. Permission is not 
issue on filter etc. 
7)  I don't things so, not possible. 
8)  Not understanding question – reason I not aware of walking tables

1.  What is the primary table in the AR System data dictionary? 
2.  How does the AR System manage the data you see in Remedy Forms? 
3.  Without using DSO or EIE, what are your thoughts for providing a 
'STANDARDIZED' methodology for interfacing/integrating with Remedy 
applications.  This customer was actually looking to use C.I.M. or some other 
open standard solution to interface with Remedy maybe a good discussion for 
the list!!! 
4.  How do you trouble shoot AR System server outages to restore access to the 
system? 
5.  How does mid-tier work and where does it fit in the client server 
architecture? 
6.  Describe how filters work?  They were actually looking how filters work in 
different phases... which led to the next question. 
7.  Can you force a filter to fire all actions in the first phase? 
8.  List all of the possible uses for guides.  They were looking for walking 
tables. 
  
These are all pretty simple questions.  I also get some questions about turning 
on/off server features using the configuration files (ar.conf/ar.cfg). 
  
Hope this helps some,

All,

 

We recently upgraded from v6.3 P22 to v7.0.1P5 and it appears semi-colon
separator characters no longer work in Email address lists (CC line).
You get the invalid address separator message in the email log.  I can
leave comma separator equal true in the EmailDaemon.Properties file and
change them to commas and they are sent but I would normally turn those
off since we are on Exchange and commas are used in the names.

Login*+
b)  Are the field ids required; i.e. !24007!
c) Is there anything else that is required.

what is before the first ! is nothing more than for the human filling in the
template, what is between the !'s is the part that tells Remedy what field
to update...there are alternate ways to do it...but this way works, I
believe that you can use either the DB Field name or the Field ID in-between
the !'s...but I would hafta check the docs to be sure.  What is after the :
is the value that will go into that field.  If you need multiple lines to go
into the field I believe that you encase them in []'s...but again...I would
need to check the docs to ensure that it's correct

Re: Interview questions

Hello Christie

 Limit the active links in the table loop to run only against rows that are 
selected.
To do so, append `$ (backquote character followed by a dollar sign) to the end
of the names of the active links contained within the table loop guide. (You do
not need to change the name of the active link that calls the guide, the names 
of
the table loop actions, or the name of the active link guide referenced by the 
call
guide.)

from the Manual Workflow Objects page 117

Hi Marc, 
These are really helpful to give direction for fresher or new person joining 
team like me, correct me if I am wrong. 
1)  ARSchema 
2)  With transaction(t) table and table schema id in associated in arschema 
table 
3)  Web Services , Remedy API, Email templates, Direct SQL, creating view 
and database trigger and database programming….. depending on what suites to 
client and third party application 
4)  Creating failure over environments, database back – replication on 
vmware etc, 
5)  Big to answer I will update you on this next time, - user interface 
,end user component – directly reachable  to customers 
6)  Filter is server side component , depending on fire condition and 
qualification action will be perform on server.  Actions are listed in if 
actions tab, submit, modify any valid ar server operation. Permission is not 
issue on filter etc. 
7)  I don't things so, not possible. 
8)  Not understanding question – reason I not aware of walking tables 
I will look in to AR Server advance guide for ar.conf related question, 
Please provide more question if you have? 
Thank you for your help. 
Regards 
Sunil

Ugh. That's the best? I personally think that's rather awful...all it asks
is if someone has seen the cover of the books and remembers that there
aren't any animals on the cover. It doesn't mean they've read them much less
absorbed them. I personally have about 30 technical books at home; many of
which I've read one or two chapters in and then left to collect dust. I
could tell you what is on the cover of each one if you gave me a minute to
think and a full color scale picture of said cover. :)

I like the out-of-the-box thinking questions myself (though no one has ever
asked me any) such as:

How many quarters would you need to make a stack as tall as the Sears tower?

Or

Why are manhole covers round?

Best interview question:

What animal is on the cover of the O'Reilly X-Window System books?

Only someone who has actually looked will know that this series has solid 
color covers and no animals. 

What you're really looking for is some indication that the interviewee is 
familiar with O'Reilly, and maybe (with luck) has one or two of them in a 
storage locker somewhere, and has been around computing long enough to 
understand X. If they've mastered that, they understand operating systems, 
and you can infer much from the conversation about which O'Reilly and 
Nutshell books are on their shelf. You can then have some fun talking about 
the animals and pets  before resuming the interview  :-)

Re: arserver.exe Memory Usage 7.0.01

2008-02-19 Thread Joe DeSouza
Did anyone get any indication from Support that they are likely to organize an 
effort internally to clean up the current ITSM application to remove the extra 
overheads by deleting unused objects especially forms from within the 
application?
 
This is almost an impossible task on a short term engagement unless you have a 
ready list of what can be safely deleted that is not used in any of the 
applications.
 
I so wish there is an effort internally by BMC engineering to clean this app 
up. IMHO this should be among one of the priority fixes in a forthcoming 
patch...

Did BMC Support give an indication to anyone that they are likley to make that 
effort to clean the applications up?

Odd behavior with Full Text Search (FTS)

2008-02-19 Thread Payne, George
Hey everyone...

 

ARS 7.0.01 P5 on AIX 5.3

ITSM 7.0.01 P5

CMDB 2.0.1 unpatched

DB-Oracle 10g on AIX 5.3

MT-7.0.01 P5 on AIX 5.3

 

I hope that this is something VERY small and silly, but it's got a lot
of us stumped right now.

 

Three diverse and possibly related sets of circumstances:

 

FIRST
With FTS installed and enabled and a Floating FTS license issued to a
Change Master user, the user gets an ARERR 314 error when searching for
any change request.  On the other hand, an ADMIN with a Floating FTS
license is able to perform the same search without error.  When I either
disable FTS on the Server or take away the user's FTS license, they can
perform the search without error.

 

Field does not exist on current form (ARRER 314)

 

SECOND

With FTS installed and enabled and a Floating FTS license issued to an
Asset Master user, the user gets an error trying to view an asset using
the CI Viewer.  The error seems to indicate that the ROOT CI does not
exist.  I assure you that it does exist because an ADMIN with a Floating
FTS license is able to view the same asset with the CI Viewer.  Once
again, if I disable FTS on the server or take away the user's FTS
license, then the CI Viewer performs as expected.

 

bThe CI Relationship Viewer could not open because the specified root
CI does not exist./bbrnamespace = BMC.COREbrclassname =
BMC_ComputerSystembrdatasetid = BMC.ASSETbrinstanceid =
ASa2508810Rp6V1wJY4CXw5V0C

 

THIRD

Trying to create a Federated Link as a Launch in Context link from the
CI Viewer, I note that ADMIN's can see the created link, but non-admins
cannot.  This is obviously less entangled with FTS than the first two,
but they all seem to have something to do with PERMISSIONS.

 

We are set to Single Tenancy and the Default Company is correct.  I note
that the CMDBRowLevelSecurity for the CI in the SECOND section in
BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement is set as:

 

CMDBRowLevelSecurity: 16 Unrestricted Access

 

Is that what it should be for Single Tenacy?

 

16 is the Group ID for our default Company.

 

I know that there have been times when I'll work on a project and then
realize that I forgot to check out the regular user permissions and
functionality.  This just really feels like one of those situations
where we've turned on some setting that's restricting non-admin
users...and I don't know if FTS is a red herring or not!

 

Bleh...any help you can offer would be most appreciated!


Thanks,
George

Re: Interview questions

2008-02-19 Thread William H. Will Du Chene
Bah!

If I am interviewing someone (and there have been a few choice occurances
of this in the past which were against my will and my manager had to drag
me from my console sessions, kicking, screaming, and clawing cube walls
the entire distance to the conference room) I am not looking for what they
have done in the past, what books they read, what animals might be on the
cover of books, or what degree the person has.

When you think about it, these criteria are positively useless. Using the
above, the interviewee might well 1.) have seen the books in passing and
be able to identify them, 2.) might copy someone elses design concept
(what if it is patented, or confidential?), or 3.) have a degree (or not
have one at all) in one field, but have been subverted into working with
the platform of choice at some point and been doing so for some time. (I
once knew a talented AR System developer who was nuts about the product
and was darn good with it, but had a Phd in Theoretical Mathmatics. He'd
teach an occasional class at a college when time permitted as well. Go
figure.)

So - you see, most of the criteria that get used so often are - IMHO -
bunkus.

An ideal candidate is one that is a passionate person; who is not just
fond of a platform or a technology, but rather is obsessed with it. A
candidate must be willing to learn; to go to bed at night with the
technical manual and wake up in the morning with the zipper-like seam
across their forehead because they fell asleep face-first on the manual.

I don't want someone that is able to recite back what they learning
sitting in a classroom at some training center and thinks that it's cool
because they now have a cute little cert sitting in a frame on their cube
wall. If I were to pick, I'd want the person that gets a smile on their
face about the technology, the one that one legs starts jumping up and
down when they're talking about the platform, and the one that the heart
rate starts to pick up when you show them the latest version of the
software. The whole point is not what you know - it's what you can do with
that which you do know.

I'd hire the person that has notes scribbled all over the manuals, and
keeps crib notes stashed in his/her pocket written on napkins and
bubble-gum wrappers or a code book (a book where random ideas about
system design are sketched out), and I would more than likely
file-thirteen the resume of the canidate that has all of the certs, and a
zillion years of experience with whatever it is that your working on. Why
you may ask?

Simple. There is no room in a small cube for an ego that has been
developed to such an extent, nor is there an allowance in a budget for the
salary that is demanded. Most really good developers are forged in the
fires of code, learning, and tribulation - not stamped from a mold,
prepackaged and shrink-wrapped for sale. C'mon, you know that this is a
fact... How many of us got up one day when were kids and said, I wanna
grow up to be an AR System developer? I'd wager that the answer is - ahem
- none. We all got drafted.

If you're hiring for a position, more than likely you want someone that is
going to do the job (maybe the candidate might not be able to at first,
and would require some training or getting their hands wet with the
technology first), someone who will be obsessed about it, and not someone
who is going to cost you a few hundred an hour with perks and travel
expenses.

You want someone that you can drop into the desert of a server room one
day, and the next day when you check on 'em, you can see that they are dug
in, got a suntan, a water reservoir, and have some sort of meat cooking
over a BBQ spit, rather than finding that your million dollar candidate is
parched from calling for room service and looking for the butler.

Hire ninjas with very little or nothing to lose, not samurai that come
from the court with vast tracts of assets.

Just my thoughts... Offered humbly...

 fires of code, learning, and tribulation - not stamped from a mold,
 prepackaged and shrink-wrapped for sale. C'mon, you know that this is a
 fact... How many of us got up one day when were kids and said, I wanna
 grow up to be an AR System developer? I'd wager that the answer is - ahem
 - none. We all got drafted.

 If you're hiring for a position, more than likely you want someone that is
 going to do the job (maybe the candidate might not be able to at first,
 and would require some training or getting their hands wet with the
 technology first), someone who will be obsessed about it, and not someone
 who is going to cost you a few hundred an hour with perks and travel
 expenses.

 You want someone that you can drop into the desert of a server room one
 day, and the next day when you check on 'em, you can see that they are dug
 in, got a suntan, a water reservoir, and have some sort of meat cooking
 over a BBQ spit, rather than finding that your million dollar candidate is
 parched from calling for room service and looking for the butler.

 Hire ninjas with very little or nothing to lose, not samurai that come
 from the court with vast tracts of assets.

 Just my thoughts... Offered humbly...



  Best question I ever got as a developer was a request for me to design a
  Car
 
  Of course the interviewer was looking to see if I'd ask questions about
  the
  type of Car, Usage, etc
 
  If I had just designed it as I wanted, I'd be back in Ohio!

Re: Interview questions

2008-02-19 Thread Frank Caruso
I always though questions pertaining to the three phases that filters
were processed in was a good question to ask.
Even if the interviewee did not know the answer  - exactly - it would
get them talking about push, set,notifications and messaging.

 Best interview question:

 What animal is on the cover of the O'Reilly X-Window System books?

 Only someone who has actually looked will know that this series has solid
 color covers and no animals.

 What you're really looking for is some indication that the interviewee is
 familiar with O'Reilly, and maybe (with luck) has one or two of them in a
 storage locker somewhere, and has been around computing long enough to
 understand X. If they've mastered that, they understand operating systems,
 and you can infer much from the conversation about which O'Reilly and
 Nutshell books are on their shelf. You can then have some fun talking about
 the animals and pets  before resuming the interview  :-)

 1.  What is the primary table in the AR System data dictionary?
 2.  How does the AR System manage the data you see in Remedy Forms?
 3.  Without using DSO or EIE, what are your thoughts for providing a 
 'STANDARDIZED'
 methodology for interfacing/integrating with Remedy applications.  This 
 customer was actually
 looking to use C.I.M. or some other open standard solution to interface
 with Remedy maybe a good discussion for the list!!!
 4.  How do you trouble shoot AR System server outages to restore access to
 the system?
 5.  How does mid-tier work and where does it fit in the client server
 architecture?
 6.  Describe how filters work?  They were actually looking how filters
 work in different phases... which led to the next question.
 7.  Can you force a filter to fire all actions in the first phase?
 8.  List all of the possible uses for guides.  They were looking for walking 
 tables.
 
 These are all pretty simple questions.  I also get some questions about 
 turning on/off server
 features using the configuration files (ar.conf/ar.cfg).
 
 Hope this helps some,

Migrating Users from People Form

2008-02-19 Thread Abdullah Baytops
Hello Listers
 
I am migrating users from our 6.3 to 7.1 and it seems to not be running as
smoothly as I thought it would.  The accounts are migrated into the 7.1
application but the password field seems to causing the problem when users
try to acces the application.  The users login password is actully NULL
becuase we authenticate externally but when you try to login with the user
account it fails.  When I go to the user account and manually clear the
password field and save the record it works.  I can't possibly do this
though for thousands of records.  Can someone give me any insight on what
they have done when migrating user accounts and password.
 

Thanks in Advance

Re: Migrating Users from People Form

2008-02-19 Thread Eli Schilling
How are you moving the data?  If with work flow are you presumably pushing a 
NULL value to the password field?  Have you tried running an escalation that 
simply sets the password field to NULL?  Then at the very least if this did 
have to happen at least you could automate the entire process...
 
Another slightly less suitable option would be to do a direct query of the 
CTM_People table in the database...see if setting NULL there fixes the logon 
issue.
 
Good luck!

Abdullah,

Why don't you just set all the records as as single update to null both in the 
t table in the password field and the user_cache table? That should clear 
whatever the problem is since you say that updating a record by blanking out 
the password helps..

Cheers

Joe
