dev studio for linux?
Hello, Whilst I don't follow the original post, the subject seems entirely possible. Dev studio is Eclipse and a few plugins, and that's all Java based. John ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are

dev studio for linux?
That is an interesting article, and you make a good point. HP and IBM have their own ITSM solutions, and HP's Service Manager/Service Request Catalog isn't bad at all. HP appear to have gone through a lot of pain to re-write their ancient solution in Java with a client/server model driven around webservices, and their thick client still works well. I've not looked at IBM's solution but perhaps someone else can provide an overview. Almost all of those companies have their own SSO solution of a kind, and it would be interesting to see how Oracle view BMC spending millions of dollars trying to re-energise OpenSSO that they themselves killed off. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are
Potential improvement to Mid Tier memory management
Hello, Oracle have recently released Java 7 update 4. The release notes claim their new Garbage Collector (Garbage First, G1) is fully supported and the long term replacement for the legacy Java GC. Oracle tout this as a much better solution for server side applications with large data sets, ie Mid Tier caching ITSM workflow. So for those of you running huge heap sizes on Mid Tier, you may want to evaluate Java 7u4 and the new GC. You can find the Java options here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/tech/vmoptions-jsp-140102.html#G1Options ie -XX:+UseG1GC John -- SSO Plugin for HP, BMC, SAP and more. http://www.javasystemsolutions.com/jss/ssoplugin ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are

Re: dev studio for linux?
It looks like just another activist investor trying to make some short term dollars without any long term concern. My opinion is that BMC is doing well enough that they probably won’t do everything he says, but they will likely make some small changes to their organization to drive up share price some to prevent their other investors from getting on board with Elliott. That being said, I don’t think that BMC will stay independent in the long term, but hopefully when they do get bought up it’s by a company that is trying to fill gaps in their own offerings rather than seeking to kill off competition. Either way, I own no shares of BMC and have no plans to do so, but companies I do invest in have had this happen often enough that my opinion is not to worry about this.

And if you read the articles there is mention that at least three of his five board nominees are prior HP folks - can look at that a couple ways. 1) HP hasn't been fairing that well recently, so I don't know if these folks bring a good value to the table, or 2)prior HP folks with a link to the 'prior' CEO that is now with Oracle - and Oracle is a name that has been bandied about as being able to use BMC's line of products.

I can’t find documentation on that. Anyone have the procedure? or know where it is? or if there is one available from BMC? Thank you for any help!

Re: Where is procedure for inactivating a Remedy User?
I just now submitted the question to BMC support to see what they say about it. I’ll let the list know. A system like this should have a procedure defined for support users moving on to greener pastures, in my opinion. I’ve heard other people here have had to Manually re-assign tickets to themselves from a person who was leaving. That doesn’t seem right. Also the old user for Knowledge documents really accumulated a lot of them! 400 - So he will live on, perpetually assigned to Knowledge Articles that have outdated instructions…. (I’m kidding!) The error message (non-admin) KM users get is ARERR 170083, and I found the filter that calls it via ARUtilities. I’ve looked at the articles in ARUtilitiesSQL and found 20+ fields that include the old user’s LoginID or Full Name in the RKM form! So it seems like a bad idea to use an Escalation or SQL to update those fields to another users loginid/name.

Re: Cleaning Special Characters from a Character Field
Hi, I agree that RegEx is handy, but if you can avoid plugins, it might be worth considering. Designing the workflow as a service-call fixes the problem with having to write the same workflow multiple times. It is almost the same syntax as calling a filter plugin. In this specific instance, where you have a specific set of characters to match, I think that it would be better to skip the RegEx-plugin. Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://rrr.se I wrote the regex plugin because I had a set of requirements that workflow could not address. We would get bad characters, and I needed to whitelist the characters that could be used and where in the string they could be used. The Java regex capabilities were a good fit. They let you look for occurrence counts, use anchors, etc. In my case, I needed to whitelist the characters that were allowed in the string. I could not conceive a way of doing this in workflow, short of pulling evaluating each character in the string individually. This was inefficient and difficult to maintain, so I opted for the plugin. I started finding that there were many things I could do with the regex capabilities that workflow is just a pain in the rear to do. For example, if I want to allow phone numbers on one of several formats, or I want IP addresses to be valid and not have leading zeroes in the octets, or I want a valid email address format. For example: Email Address: ^[_A-Za-z0-9-]+(\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@[A-Za-z0-9]+(\.[A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$ IP Address: ^([01]?\d\d?|2[0-4]\\d|25[0-5])\.([01]?\d\d?|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.([01]?\d\d?|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.([01]?\d\d?|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])$ Letters a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, (comma), and (dash) are allowed: ^[a-zA-Z0-9-,/\\]+$ Letters a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, space, and - are allowed but space is not allowed at the beginning or end of the string: ^[^ ][a-z A-Z0-9-]+[^ ]$ Just to name a few. The way I wrapped the plugin, I have a repository of evaluations I can perform and I can reuse those wherever they are needed, and I can modify the evaluation and it is instantly used in all places that need to use that evaluation. In workflow, this would be problematic to maintain because it would mean modifying workflow in many places to account for a single evaluation I was doing in many places. It means finding all the places, making sure the workflow is modified properly, and that is just time consuming and the next poor sap who comes along doesn't have much of a chance of getting it right. Along this train of thought, it would be nice if I could define the pattern in the field properties, similar to the way $MENU$ works, but instead of using the menu for validation, use the regex from the repository. If that were the case, there would be no workflow to write to validate input, just define and reuse the regex.

Re: Product Catalog
It was very confusing to me as well. Why they could not just have one file to load is beyond me! 1) New Install 2) Patch Install Too easy!
