The way to do it is to use an advanced interface form with Back end Mapping. Then you can have the URL pass the parameters to the form/fields as you need with the F1001=ValueF123456=value2 Where in F1001, the 1001 is the field Id. And when the Form is opened, it will set the Request ID, and on submission, it will create the SRM:Request record stub.

One can create a URL that has a Remedy form specified and after the user logs in they are taken directly to the form. Testing this, however, vital information isn't filled in for a request because it wasn't navigated through the SRM console. What mechanisms exist in SRM or what techniques can be used to link directly to a request form from external source (to avoid SRM console navigation), and pass additional parameters to fill fields?

Re: Calculate Gaps in Schedule
Hi Lisa, You could look at taking the on call end date of person A and subtracting it from the on call start date of person B. If the end result is say greater than an hour, you could advise somebody. In fact you could make this part of the process when entering the dates so that an individual is made aware that their on call is starting at an unacceptable time after their colleagues finishes. You could make it a warning or an error depending on the severity of it. I would probably give them an overriding option which shows that they are aware of the gap and then email the groups manager in the background.

OT:User tool based form creator.
Hello Listers, I seem to remember an application that someone built that would allow a basic form to be built via the User Tool. I was wondering if any one knows what it was called or if it ever went into production. I am asking because I find that some of my customers would like to be able to throw together a quick form and use it among their teams. Any workflow required would be created by an Administrator for them. I guess I'm asking for a requirements gathering tool, built in ARS, that would give the end user a pseudo-rapid development app. I don't know if I want to go down the Sub-Admin path because we have so many cross-group users that I would have to create a Sub-Groupname group to assign as a subadmin to keep everyone honest.

Re: Automating definition export using driver
Tony, I have often consider this kind of feature... and after a few iterations of this concept this is what I would suggest Don't use the driver. I know that sounds harsh. It is a helpful tool. However, it is not stable enough to build an integration on. There is no guarantee that it will even be in the next version, much less that it will work at all like it does in the current version. So, IMO if you tie yourself to it now... then you will surly pay for that decision over and over again in the future. Here is what I would suggest Start down the road of a ARFilter plugin. (If you are on v7.1 then specifically use the Java API based plugin feature set.) This way you get to develop (and maintain) the code that does what you want it to do.

Performance Tuning ARS 7.1
Hello All We just launched ARS 7.1 two weeks ago. Things have been running fairly well until last week when we started to see the error ARERR 92 Timeout during database update -- the operation has been accepted by the server and will usually complete successfully : server.com With BMC guidance we increased the tempdb size from an initial 8MB to 1GB. The ARERR 92 error appeared to be resolved until earlier this week when we started seeing error ARERR 382 The value(s) for this entry violate a unique index that has been defined for this form : HPD:Help Desk entry:INC8832 fields: and error ARERR 8939 The AR System Plug-In server is not responding. Cannot connect to the system at this time. Contact your AR System Administrator for assistance. : RPC: Timed out I suspect that ARERR 92 and ARERR 382 are related, so earlier this morning I increased the tempdb size from 1GB to 5GB. This appears to have resolved these errors. However, I'm not sure if ARERR 8939 is related to this issue but restarting the arplugin.exe process appears to have resolved this issue. Our AR server is running on a Windows 2003 server R2 with 8GB RAM and the database backed is SQL 2005 running on a similar server. I'm curious if anyone else has encountered similar issues and what recommendations people have for improving performance of a system. Clearly, we are learning some new ways of tuning our system, so any tips would be greatly appreciated.

SSO Tomcat
Hi everyone, I have a question concerning SSO and Tomcat and Remedy. We are running Tomcat without IIS and have installed Remedy 7.0.1 (details below). I have followed all the steps in the white paper for setting up SSO, but I think there is an issue because we do not have IIS running. We are getting the error SSO ERROR: RemoteUser name is null or empty. I have tried setting this field on the login.jsp and it does come back as null and not as the user that is logged into the windows machine. I think if I can somehow get the RemoteUser populated or find some other attribute to use, then we will be well on our way to having SSO implemented. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue or has any thoughts on how to resolve this. Thanks in advance!

I know that sounds harsh. It is a helpful tool. However, it is not stable enough to build an integration on. There is no guarantee that it will even be in the next version, much less that it will work at all like it does in the current version. So, IMO if you tie yourself to it now... then you will surly pay for that decision over and over again in the future. Here is what I would suggest Start down the road of a ARFilter plugin. (If you are on v7.1 then specifically use the Java API based plugin feature set.) This way you get to develop (and maintain) the code that does what you want it to do. If you can slap together a Java program to do what what you want done, then converting it into a ARF (Java) plugin is very trivial. If you do not know Java then ... well.. learn? or sweet talk some nice ARS API aware Java programmer(s) on ARSList to help a nice guy out. :) This function sound like two inputs: Form Name File Name then the plugin would connect to the ARS Server (as the user that called the plugin, which in v7.1 there is no need to pass username or password :) ) do the export and save the content to the AR Server file system. Or you might opt to write a bit more Java code and make the def file an attachment in an ARS form. :) It does not sound like it should be to hard to do. :) How does that idea sound to you? -- Carey Matthew Black BMC Remedy AR System Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap Pick two.

Does anyone have their install verbose output while installing AIE and CMDB on AIX 5.x? I need these for documenting something I am working on. Joe ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:rmisoluti...@verizon.net ARSlist: Where the Answers Are
Changing case of Login Id
Hi Everyone, We have some of the login ids in mixed cases, we need to standardize the process by changing them into lowercase. One approach, we tried is to use 'Authentication Login Name' field, but in further testing we got some clichés in this approach. Is there any other way to achieve it.
