Re: login name not friendly or recognizable

2011-05-25 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

With things explained a little further, I do not see that the custom
authenticator would be able to solve your problem.

You want the user to use the Unfriendly Name at Login, and you want to see
the Friendly Name in all other places.

You must do some additional things.

You must swap the Unfriendly name to the Friendly name before it is sent
to the AR Server. You can still keep the Unfriendly name for the
authenticator by putting that into the extra Authentication-field that is
normally not used.

The technology to trap the login dialog differ between the native client
and the web client. If you are using DevStudio, it is not possible create
your own login dialog.

Another problem is that the authenticator (AREA-plugin) is only called
when the password-field is blank. That means that you have to store the
actual password somewhere else...

Could you not just use the Friendly name in all places in the AR System
except one? That would be the actual login dialog on the web client, where
you have some java-script-code to map the entered Unfriendly login name
into the Friendly name used by the system?

 I didn't either, but thought I'd mention just in case!   I don't think I
 have the ability to do a custom authenticator like Misi suggested, and
 know if it would work in our setup.

 Perhaps it would be an interesting enhancement allow for an alias to be
 associated with Login Name for system timestamps - or maybe a server
 setting that says use Full Name.  Though I guess that could present
 auditing problems  -

 At the login prompt in Brien's case the user will be typing in the
 friendly name, while the alias in field 117 is used behind the scene.

 That's okay if you don't mind the users using the friendly name at
 login.   But it does bring up a concern of mine:

 I'd like a way to use the external alias at the login prompt (since that's
 the login our users are familiar with) without having it be the value is
 stamped on fields.  Otherwise, I'm looking at the same issue Brien
 mentioned of creating
 extra fields (and an extra line for each diary field entry) to show who
 updated the case.  Any other ideas on how to handle that?

Presuming all other users are OK  only this user is affected...

Did his browser change (update or revert to different ver)?
Did his local java jre change (update or revert to different ver)?
Did you clear the local browser cache?
Did you clear the local java cache?
Did it work before, but suddenly stop working?
Did user's profile change in ARS (permissions, roles, etc)?
Did you re-cache mid-tier?

That's the obvious troubleshooting I can think of...

Yes, the Authentication Login Name is used for authentication, but that's 
behind the scenes - the user still has to type the Remedy Login Name in the 
login dialog box - and that's what I don't want them to have to do.

We're been using this using this for a while, with a mix of accounts - some 
local Remedy passwords, some against LDAP.  The LDAP users do have to type in 
whatever is in the Login Name field on the user form in order to log in.

But maybe there's some other way of configuring this I've missed -

That's not how I read it, although I haven't had a chance to test this.  The 
docs say this, specifically (emphasis my text).
If the Authentication Login Name (Unfriendly Name) field is present on the User 
form, the value
contained in this field is used for authentication instead of the name entered 
in
the User Name field (Friendly Name) in the Login dialog box.
In our case we will be using single-signon (kerberos) with our unfriendly 
Active Directory account name.  So this should work perfectly for both of us, 
right?

Re: Mid-Tier and opening several windows for a single logon session.

2011-05-25 Thread David Durling
Rafael,

Excuse me for jumping in on your question for David Easter, but might it be 
feasible to instruct your users to use different browsers for the 2 
applications?   On ARS 7.5, at least, I am able to sustain different user login 
sessions on the same PC  if I use Internet Explorer for one and Firefox for the 
other.  It helps me when I'm testing access as different users.

Dave sorry for delay, the reason why we have this is because we have a portal 
application which uses a generic ID as we allow any user to come in and submit 
an inquiry via portal. This Portal application is being hosted using the same 
mid-tier. Are you saying that we should use a totally isolated mid-tier for 
this other app?

Any particular reason why the users have Different IDs on the two servers 
that are connected to the same Mid-Tier?

And I'm a little confused about the opens another window and logs into 
mid-tier for another application.  Once you're logged into the Mid-Tier with 
credentials you wouldn't log in again - which is probably the base of your 
problem.  You're basically logging out of one set of credentials and logging in 
with different set - toggling between the two.

Are these two completely separate systems that should not be connected?  i.e. 
why did you choose to use one Mid-Tier for two servers if they share no common 
authentication?

David what about the following scenario,

User opens a window and logs into Mid-Tier for a specific application, then 
opens another window and logs into mid-tier for another application with a 
Different ID. This way they can work on issues simultaneously. Issue we 
encountered is that the second login session overrides the first and now the 
user credentials for second application are passed to first.

What are your thoughts on this?

Correct.  You can easily open up multiple records at the same time.  This has 
been true since the inception of the Mid-Tier, so it should be completely 
possible on AR System 7.1.00.  In fact, it'd be interesting to hear how you're 
avoiding it, since the fact that multiple windows open when using the product 
was feedback we received that led to a change in AR System 7.6.04 that keeps 
multiple windows from opening (although it too allows multiple windows to be 
opened if you hold down the Shift Key when navigating).

Are you saying that you are having trouble with your users having more than
one window open?shouldn't be an issue from the same source, if they have
a button that opens the form in question in a new window, then open
another.I guess I'm not understanding where this is an issue even for

Incident Scripts

Is there any reason behind the way BMC developed this piece as being
locked/accessible only to explicit groups?


In our situation, we have 214 support groups and we need to associate about
23 scripts. That means 23*214 = 4922 script mappings that need to be loaded
into the system. Imagine if the number tripled, that means 69*214 = 14766
mappings.


Does anyone else suffer from this limitation or restriction?

Any work around or we need to do our own customization to make the each

Re: Incident Scripts

2011-05-25 Thread Benedetto Cantatore
In your case this is a disadvantage, but makes sense for the companies
that want to provide scripts that are specific to only certain support
groups.  
 
I did this for templates; I created a dummy group and made every
support person a member of that group.  That way whenever I needed to
make a template available to all, I merely permission it for that group.
 I think that should work for you as well for scripts.

That’s a good thought.. Even if he does have flash installed check the 
version.. Usually the user client would prompt if there is no flash installed 
and display a clickable link to download it if its absent or if a incompatible 
version is installed..

If a compatible version is already installed, you would want to check your 
registry to make sure that it is not being supressed.. I recently worked on an 
engagement where even after a compatible version was installed, it would be 
suppressed due to the presence of a key that had to be manually deleted..

Also, if you don't need the staging form for other considerations, I think you 
could also push them directly to the Incident with something like

$Subject$ LIKE ((% + 'Incident Number') + %)
If no requests match: Take no action
If any requests match:  Modify First Matching Request

And if you want to provide for the possibility there is no match  create a new 
incident, add an additional push fields after the first one:

$Subject$ LIKE ((% + 'Incident Number') + %)
If no requests match:  Create a New Request
If any requests match:  Take no action

We are trying to push all incoming emails to their associated tickets on the 
Work Log table. Is there any better way to parse the ticket # out of the 
subject other than the old way of including words that you would like to ignore 
in your qualification? Does the id get parsed out of the box? I looked for 
workflow that does that and did not find any.

Re: Incoming Email Messages

2011-05-25 Thread Brittain, Mark
That would work too but there are some things to consider.

Equal is always better than LIKE. Using the wildcards on each end negates 
indexing and causes a full table scan. Not a big deal in performance by itself 
but that sort of thing adds up.

If the push does not work it will be more difficult to figure out why. If the 
Incident Number is parsed and retained in a field then you know what is being 
used during the search.

Also, if you don't need the staging form for other considerations, I think you 
could also push them directly to the Incident with something like

$Subject$ LIKE ((% + 'Incident Number') + %)
If no requests match: Take no action
If any requests match:  Modify First Matching Request

And if you want to provide for the possibility there is no match  create a new 
incident, add an additional push fields after the first one:

$Subject$ LIKE ((% + 'Incident Number') + %)
If no requests match:  Create a New Request
If any requests match:  Take no action

Note I don't use ITSM, so this may not apply -

I am on ARS 6.3 but do something like that. First thing I do is push the  email 
from the AR System Email Messages form to a staging form. The I have a filter 
in the staging form parse the incident number out of the subject line in to a 
field I call Related Incident Number. This works no matter where the Incident 
Number is in the subject line.

SUBSTRC($Subject:$, STRSTRC($Subject:$,  INC0), STRSTRC($Subject:$,  INC0) 
+10)

Then I use another filter to find the matching Incident and push. $Related 
Incident Number$ = 'Incident Number'

Hope this helps

date format and separator. : 03/21/2011 (ARERR 9951)

2011-05-25 Thread Francois Seegers
Hi All,

We are running Atrium, ITSM and SLM on Windows servers with Red-Hat Linux as 
the web server.  We keep on receiving the following error when trying to submit 
an Incident.
The date entered is invalid or a bad date format. Please make sure the date 
format is in the ARServer's date format and separator. : 03/21/2011 (ARERR 9951)
We have set the regional settings date format of the local system account on 
the application server that the Remedy services startup with to MM/dd/yy.  The 
web server is setup the same.  The user preference for the user we use to 
submit the Incident is setup to use the SHORT format.

I would like to know if you can give me some thoughts what the cause might be 
before logging a call with BMC, maybe it is something simple.

The above error is caused by a filter 
[SLM:Measurement:ReqProcOverallStartTimeUpdateSLODueDateX] using the Reported 
Date to calculate a due date on SLM.

Hi All,

I need to do error handling when an external system passes information to

Oracle BPEL sends a new request to a Remedy staging table.  Filters validate 
the data (Submit) and need to pass an error code back as output response if 
data is invalidated.

I tried using error messages in a filter but the xml format created is not 
structured and I would like to have preconfigured error codes i.e. table

Extracting Circular Relationships from 'BMC_BaseRelationship'

2011-05-25 Thread Mahesh
Hi All


We have an issue with Atrium Impact Simulator basically crashing doing
nothing and BMC support says that it is because of the circular
relationships which are not allowed.

Considering the following as relationship records


 Record #

A2. ReconID

2

A2. ReconID

A3. ReconID

3

A3. ReconID

A4. ReconID

A6. ReconID

8

A7. ReconID

A8. ReconID

9

A9. ReconID

A11. ReconID

10

A5. ReconID

A3. ReconID


here is an example of circular relationships


 Record #

A3. ReconID

4

A3. ReconID

A1. ReconID

5

A4. ReconID

A5. ReconID

6

A5. ReconID

A4. ReconID



Now I am working on a SQL query to extract those circular relations from
“BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseRelationship” but cannot seem to get the right logic.


Any help is greatly appreciated,


Thanks in advance

 I’m just guessing, but there are two things that I question.  First, looks
 like you are asking for a two-digit year and providing a four-digit year.
 Does 03/21/11 work?  The second question might be insignificant, but my is

 Hi All,



 We are running Atrium, ITSM and SLM on Windows servers with Red-Hat Linux as
 the web server.  We keep on receiving the following error when trying to
 submit an Incident.

 The date entered is invalid or a bad date format. Please make sure the date
 format is in the ARServer's date format and separator. : 03/21/2011 (ARERR
 9951)

 We have set the regional settings date format of the local system account on
 the application server that the Remedy services startup with to MM/dd/yy.
 The web server is setup the same.  The user preference for the user we use
 to submit the Incident is setup to use the SHORT format.



 I would like to know if you can give me some thoughts what the cause might
 be before logging a call with BMC, maybe it is something simple.



 The above error is caused by a filter
 [SLM:Measurement:ReqProcOverallStartTimeUpdateSLODueDateX] using the
 Reported Date to calculate a due date on SLM.



 Regards

 Francois Seegers

Re: Mid-Tier and opening several windows for a single logon session.

2011-05-25 Thread Easter, David
 we have a portal application which uses a generic ID as we allow any user to 
 come in and submit an inquiry via portal.

Having multiple people logging in under the same ID is not really the best 
idea.  AR System does allow for guest users so that each submission could be 
tracked by an actual username. 

 Are you saying that we should use a totally isolated mid-tier for this other 
 app?

That was more a question for you.  If you do not want any users who are 
accessing server 1 to ever be able to access server 2 - and the authentication 
for server 1 is completely separate from server 2, it sounds like you may want 
to keep them more separated at the Mid-Tier level as well.

Others on the list may have additional ideas/comments on this.  It's not 
sounding like a best configuration to me - but of course this is all based on 
the limited information provided here.

Rafael,

Excuse me for jumping in on your question for David Easter, but might it be 
feasible to instruct your users to use different browsers for the 2 
applications?   On ARS 7.5, at least, I am able to sustain different user login 
sessions on the same PC  if I use Internet Explorer for one and Firefox for the 
other.  It helps me when I'm testing access as different users.

Any particular reason why the users have Different IDs on the two servers 
that are connected to the same Mid-Tier?

And I'm a little confused about the opens another window and logs into 
mid-tier for another application.  Once you're logged into the Mid-Tier with 
credentials you wouldn't log in again - which is probably the base of your 
problem.  You're basically logging out of one set of credentials and logging in 
with different set - toggling between the two.

Are these two completely separate systems that should not be connected?  i.e. 
why did you choose to use one Mid-Tier for two servers if they share no common 
authentication?

David what about the following scenario,

User opens a window and logs into Mid-Tier for a specific application, then 
opens another window and logs into mid-tier for another application with a 
Different ID. This way they can work on issues simultaneously. Issue we 
encountered is that the second login session overrides the first and now the 
user credentials for second application are passed to first.

What are your thoughts on this?

I am not sure if these errors are related but I found the arsystem.tag file
in C:\Program Files* (x86)*\Common Files\AR System\Licenses\servername?
instead of C:\Program Files\Common Files\AR System\Licenses\servername.

This is a upgrade form 32-bit to 64-bit AR and the installer keeps the
Program Files (x86) path.  It looks like the installer wants to to look in
the normal 64-bit program path for the arsystem.tag file while everything
else is in the normal 32-bit path.

Hi Axton,

Thanks for your reply, I have set this environment variable, for Windows I read 
is ARDATEONLY (ARDATEONLY=MM/dd/) and restarted our Remedy services.  What 
I do find is that when submitting the Incident it creates a record on the 
HPD:CFG Ticket Num Generator form and the workflow use the create date of this

MM/dd/yy even though I have set the ARDATEONLY environment variable to

Assets import issue

2011-05-25 Thread Vaibhav Singhal
**





Hi Experts,


This may be a basic question but I am new to Assets, andgot stuckhere-

I need to import certain asset records, for System Software.

There is one Join Form - AST:SystemSoftware
This is a inner join ofform - BMC:BMC_SystemSoftware
 with itself.
BMC:BMC_SystemSoftware is a inner join of forms - BMC:BMC_SystemSoftware_
 and BMC:BMC_LogicalSystemComponent
BMC:BMC_LogicalSystemComponent is a inner joinof
 forms - BMC:BMC_LogicalSystemComponent_ and BMC:BMC_AssetBase


**Join criteria is Instance ID on all joins.
Itriedto import data in AST:SystemSoftware,
 it created all entries in all above base forms, and record is populating in all join forms except AST:SystemSoftware.
Record is there in BMC:BMC_SystemSoftware and join
 criteria isInstanceID match with itself, but record is not populating on AST:SystemSoftware.


It works fine, if data is entered manually in AST:SystemSoftware form.
I scanned logs for what are all changes that take place if record is saved manually, but my investigation was notsufficient I suppose.
Any suggestion is much appreciated.


Regards,



Vabh

Thanks for the replyMahesh.

Sorry I missed system information.
It'sARS 6.3 with all application of version 6.

Atrium IntegrationEngine is not applicable then.
Any ideas?
