Re: rrrChive with the CMDB

2012-07-03 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
One more thing!

If you are copying data from ARX to a join-form, transfertype=SYNCTOTARGET
would not work. I suggest you refrain from anything but transfertype=COPY.

Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://rrr.se

 Hi,

 Sorry, I should have spotted this before...

 The source server is set to DIR, meaning a directory with ARX-files,
 right?

 I would suspect that the ARX-file uses the database names of the fields,
 so you have to specify those in lieu of labels.

 Please give us the first 5 lines of the ARX-file in question!

 The error does not come from the AR Server, it comes from the
 RRR|Chive-server-simulator parsing the ARX-file...

Re: rrrChive with the CMDB

2012-07-03 Thread Danny Kellett
Hi Misi,

Thanks for the reply and the free tool.

I was using this to get the CMDB data to an ARX file really and was
puzzelled by the ARAPI call not thinking there is a Company field on the
join. But it you dont support it then I will follow Carls recommendation
and go from the base forms.

thanks
Danny

 Hi,

 RRR|Chive is designed to work with Regular forms only. Join forms does not
 work.

 Loading the qualifier should work though, so problems would come later.

 We have no plans of adding join form functionality to RRR|Chive, as it is
 a low level data transfer tool, and a join form always brings it data from
 one or more regular forms.

 The solution would be as Carl suggests - go for the core form instead.

 I guess there should be an earlier check and ERROR about join forms in
 RRR|Chive though...

Re: rrrChive with the CMDB

2012-07-03 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

Yes, but if you have transfertype=SYNCTOTARGET, it tries to perform the
same search in the ARX-file as it does against the server. And this may
not be possible if the ARX-file has not been created yet...

So the first time you export to ARX-files, use the transfertype=COPY.

Re: rrrChive with the CMDB

2012-07-03 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi,

You can definitely manage CMDB data with RRR|Chive, but I go against
regular forms.

If you are working with ARX-files, you can not do a SYNCTOTARGET on the
first run, as the ARX-file has not been created yet.

Please do a transfertype=COPY instead in that case.

After the ARX-file has been created, you can do a
transfertype=SYNCTOTARGET to gransfer the Delta (modified and deleted
records) to the ARX-file.

If you do this at the same time as using a qualifier, you will get a
failure if the database name in the ARX-file dose not match the field
label. In this case, you can use Field IDs instead.

I guess I have to add a few things to make this more straight forward:
- Fix it so that you can do SYNCTOTARGET against empty ARX-files
- Allow for different queries against source and target, if you want to do
SYNCTOTARGET and the field names does not match
- Prevent running against Join-forms, or possibly make this supported

ADV: If anyone wants to pay me to do any of these tasks, feel free to
contact me off list :-)

Re: Running the ARsystem service as a plain windows user account

2012-07-03 Thread Reiser, John J
Christopher,
The security folks seemed to accept my reply that running as a non-admin may be 
possible but it needs elevated permissions.
I think they are mainly concerned about the system reaching outside the 
corporate firewall.
That was one to the other questions that they had. Since we don't do that we 
should be ok.

I don't think file permissions will be enough.  You might try giving it only 
some of the explicit permissions (run as a service, act as a part of the 
operating system) that it normally gets from the local admin group rights and 
see if that works. I have not had to discuss this to our security team, but 
they have not considered it a problem during their security scans.

That's how we have our system setup (ARS, Email POP, and Tomcat). The 
difference being that our domain account has local admin access. 
The Systems Security people want to know if it's required. I guess I'll tell 
them no BUT it does need Power User access.
Then 6 months from now they'll tell me that I have an account running a service 
as a Power User and that is not allowed.


So if I give the Program Files directories for BMC and Tomcat power user full 
control I should be ok?

Subject: EXTERNAL: Re: Running the ARsystem service as a plain windows user 
account

In my experience the ARS Server service has to run as a local admin account, 
and also as an account with access to the SQL Server database.  What we have 
used for many years is a Domain User account (not a Domain Admin or other role) 
that has been granted local admin rights on the AR Server, AND is the dbo in 
SQL Server for the ARSystem database.  Flashboards has always run fine as Local 
System.  I do give this Domain Account (it is not a local Windows account) full 
rights to the BMC Software directory structures where the applications are 
installed (before installation).  Again, the service itself runs under that 
Domain User account - ARS 7.x installers usually get this correct if the 
account has been set up properly on the SQL Server first.

The email engine is another matter.  If you are using MAPI and have Outlook 
installed on the AR Server, the Domain User for the MAPI mailbox has to be a 
local admin as well, and have the rights to log on locally and run Outlook 
against the mailbox that AREmail is using; the Email Engine service itself must 
run under that Domain User account.  This works fine in Windows Server 2003, 
but I never got it working to my satisfaction in Windows Server 2008; the mail 
engine would not log in and send mail unless you had a current logged-in 
session under the mailbox user account open, and started the mail service from 
there.  Log out, and it stopped working.  It was one of the main reasons we 
switch from MAPI (for ARS 7.1) to SMTP/POP (for ARS 7.6.04).

When using SMTP/POP, the BMC Remedy Email Engine installs and runs just fine 
under the Local System account.  If you decide to run it under the Domain User 
of the Pop mailbox, then that user would have to be at least a local Power User 
to run the service, with full access to the Email Engine application directory. 
 It only needs to be in the local admin group for MAPI connections.

We do the same with the mid-tier; the Tomcat instance runs under a dedicated 
Domain User that is in the local Power User group, with full rights to the 
Apache file directory structure.  We make those changes after installing Tomcat 
(which installs under Local System), before installing the mid-tier.

BTW, the AR System runs in a dedicated AD forest, so it is an additional

if the application is reaching outside the firewall then three things come
to mind.

#1 replace the security folks running the firewall, for their
misconfiguration.
#2 replace the firewall, that is configured correctly and allows an
application to network around it.
#3 replace network folks that allow configurations to go around the box.

Sorry: this sounds so ridiculous it is almost friday humor.

 I don't think file permissions will be enough.  You might try giving it
 only some of the explicit permissions (run as a service, act as a part of
 the operating system) that it normally gets from the local admin group
 rights and see if that works. I have not had to discuss this to our
 security team, but they have not considered it a problem during their
 security scans.

 That's how we have our system setup (ARS, Email POP, and Tomcat). The

 The Systems Security people want to know if it's required. I guess I'll

 In my experience the ARS Server service has to run as a local admin
 account, and also as an account with access to the SQL Server database.
  What we have used for many years is a Domain User account (not a Domain
 Admin or other role) that has been granted local admin rights on the AR
 Server, AND is the dbo in SQL Server for the ARSystem database.
  Flashboards has always run fine as Local System.  I do give this Domain
 Account (it is not a local Windows account) full rights to the BMC Software
 directory structures where the applications are installed (before
 installation).  Again, the service itself runs under that Domain User
 account - ARS 7.x installers usually get this correct if the account has
 been set up properly on the SQL Server first.

 The email engine is another matter.  If you are using MAPI and have
 Outlook installed on the AR Server, the Domain User for the MAPI mailbox
 has to be a local admin as well, and have the rights to log on locally and
 run Outlook against the mailbox that AREmail is using; the Email Engine
 service itself must run under that Domain User account.  This works fine in
 Windows Server 2003, but I never got it working to my satisfaction in
 Windows Server 2008; the mail engine would not log in and send mail unless
 you had a current logged-in session under the mailbox user account open,
 and started the mail service from there.  Log out, and it stopped working.
  It was one of the main reasons we switch from MAPI (for ARS 7.1) to
 SMTP/POP (for ARS 7.6.04).

 When using SMTP/POP, the BMC Remedy Email Engine installs and runs just
 fine under the Local System account.  If you decide to run it under the

Netcool WSDL Integration with Remedy 7.6.01

2012-07-03 Thread Wendy Lynne
**
I am working on an integration with Netcool through Web Services. The integration was working fine until the Netcool server, id and password were changed. This integration was built on my dev box and before the changes, the build worked fine for both the creation of tickets and the update for resolve/close.  The Remedy WSDL was updated with the new Netcool server, id and password. Netcool can create tickets and receive incident numbers from Remedy. I made the changes to the Netcool WSDL and rebuilt the filters that Remedy used to send other data back to Netcool when an incident is resolved/closed.  Through some troubleshooting and testing, it appears that Remedy does not like the format of the Netcool WSDL. The WSDL works fine through SoapUI. Has anyone experienced this and can share a possible solution.

Re: Securing SRM tickets (SR,WO, Task) for HR

Hi,

 

If we have understood your issue correctly, following things can be
configured as one of the solutions to get this done

 

1. Create two separate companies: one for HRIS and another for NON-HRIS

2. Give unrestricted access to HRIS member, so they will be able to see all
the tickets including NON-HRIS

3. Do not give unrestricted access to NON-HRIS members, so they will have
access only to their tickets

Subject: Securing SRM tickets (SR,WO, Task) for HR

 

** 

Happy Friday all,

 

I am setting up our HR department with SRM and we would like to have HR
tickets segregated from the others

1.   Avoid advance interface forms, to allow for self-administration of
SR Catalog, and keep any maintenance tasks to a minimum

2.   Non-HRIS personnel should not have access to HRIS Requests nor Work
Order/Tasks

3.   All HRIS personnel should have access to Requests, WOs, Tasks,
regardless of assignment

4.   Non-HRIS Requests, WOs, Tasks need to be available to the rest of
the users

 

I am looking at setting up row level security for this, so if you have tried
this I'd be very appreciative of your experience. Here's what I have been
able to discern so far:

 

OOB SRM:Request's field 1, 'SysRequestID', has only the Assignee, Assignee
Group, OBOAssignee, Submitter, Vendor Assignee Groups and 'Unrestricted
Access' (role) that grant access to an entry. 

 

Though 'Assignee Group' is set, no field 112 has been created. The
'OBOAssignee' field is used, and workflow sets this to $USER$, $Requested By
Login ID$, and $Requested For Login ID$. Similarly, the Vendor Assignee is
set by workflow as well, if a vendor is assigned the request.

 

My working plan is to remove the 'Unrestricted Access' from field 1, use the
assignee group in field 112 and a parent group in a dynamic group field as
described in the FormApp guide to grant access to the assignee group and all
HRIS groups. Filters will set field 112, the system will set the dynamic
group and all HRIS groups should have access to the tickets when an HRIS
group is assigned. If the Assignee is not in HRIS, a generic permissions
group (General Access?) will be put into 112.

 

First, if anyone has a better idea on this, please let me know.

 

Otherwise, what I'm going to be looking at is whether or not I a filter can
determine if an assignee group is in a parent group (so I don't have to
update code when HR adds a new support group).

Re: Completely OT: MS SQL Server 'Compact' 3.5 SP1... How does this differ from the regular SQL server?

2012-07-03 Thread Carl Wilson
Hi,

there is a good Wiki article on this:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_Server_Compact

 

MS offer a couple of different flavours of the SQL Server e.g. the above (for 
mobile and Windows CE) , SQL Server Express (Visual Studio), etc

 

These allow you to use MS SQL without the need for a full blown SQL Server 
setup and licenses and they have a smaller footprint.  

I guess it is a move on from MS Access in some ways to allow the development 
platforms a standard DB interface and the overhead costs.

 

I have even in the past installed ARS on the Express version of SQL Server with 
no issues (e.g. Laptop - no VM), although I have not tried the later versions.

 

Cheers

Carl

That replaced the old MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine) instances that things like 
Crystal Enterprise installed (that were code-red vulnerable ootb).  They were 
basically unmanaged instances of SQL Server 7, 2000, or 2005.  It should be 
fairly secure since it is SQL Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 vintage.  If 
you install the SQL Server 2008 Tools you can manage it, assuming that it does 
not come with its own management interface; MSDE never did.

protocol/data error when performing data operation. Please contact 
administrator” when opening AR System Customizable Home Page on mid-tier with 
the overview console. They seem to be able to open other consoles without error 
and it all worked fine previously.

It affects all the users (luckily this is a test environment only). They all 
use IE7 and I have tested with IE8 with the same result.
The home page works fine (i.e. no error) with FireFox and also (and this is the 
most puzzling to me) when I start running Fiddler on my client with IE7 in 
order to investigate the issue.

When users get the error, the mid-tier server log shows the following error:

java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string:

I have an interesting challenge with an image in a HTML email template.
Straight forward Notify filter that references the template and send out the

Re: Netcool WSDL Integration with Remedy 7.6.01

2012-07-03 Thread Tommy Morris
AXIS 1.4 which is bundled with Remedy AR since 7.5 onwards sets the 
mustunderstand attribute to 1 if it finds SOAP header information in the Client 
request to the Webservice (AR or External) for example WS Security information 
like username and password. When SOAP header information is sent out, the 
mustunderstand attribute is set to 1 which otherwise is 0; Because this 
attribute is set to 1, the Webservice is not able to understand it and thus the 
error.

Subject: Netcool WSDL Integration with Remedy 7.6.01

**
I am working on an integration with Netcool through Web Services.  The 
integration was working fine until the Netcool server, id and password were 
changed.  This integration was built on my dev box and before the changes, the 
build worked fine for both the creation of tickets and the update for 
resolve/close.   The Remedy WSDL was updated with the new Netcool server, id 
and password.  Netcool can create tickets and receive incident numbers from 
Remedy.  I made the changes to the Netcool WSDL  and rebuilt the filters that 
Remedy used to send other data back to Netcool when an incident is 
resolved/closed.   Through some troubleshooting and testing, it appears that 
Remedy does not like the format of the Netcool WSDL.  The WSDL works fine 
through SoapUI.  Has anyone experienced this and can share a possible solution.

Re: Completely OT: MS SQL Server 'Compact' 3.5 SP1... How does this differ from the regular SQL server?

That makes sense as it did install the Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for Visual

Thank you Chris and Carl..

That replaced the old MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine) instances that things like 
Crystal Enterprise installed (that were code-red vulnerable ootb).  They were 
basically unmanaged instances of SQL Server 7, 2000, or 2005.  It should be 
fairly secure since it is SQL Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 vintage.  If 
you install the SQL Server 2008 Tools you can manage it, assuming that it does 
not come with its own management interface; MSDE never did.

I recently purchased an OBD II Reader (for reading onboard diagnostics on my 
car), and the data link connector for a PC installs a MS SQL Server Compact 3.5 
SP1. I had never heard of this product (SQL Server ‘Compact’) until I just had 
to install both the 32 and 64 bit version of it to support the data link 
connector for the OBD II reader..

 

Has anyone had to use this (SQL Server Compact) in the past?

 

How does this differ from the regular SQL server that we use for lets say the 
AR System??

 

Joe

 

PS: Since this is no relation with the AR System, please reply to me directly 
if you will and spare the bandwith on the list. I was tempted to ask the list 
here only because this tool uses a RDBMS which is a type of the MS-SQL server 
so some of you might have had to use it with some other non-related tools..

Re: PDICT -- Abydos -- installer problems

2012-07-03 Thread Scott Philben
I am having similar issues in that the installer (C:\Software Install\Process 
Designer 8.3.02\ProcessDesignerInstallAndConfig_8.3.02\PDICT\setup.exe) runs, 
it puts an icon on my desktop and then stops. The icon points to:

C:\Program Files\BMC Software\Process Designer 8\Integration and Configuration 
Tool\

but there is nothing executable in that directory, just a jar file and the lib 
and Resources directories.

So then I ran the C:\Software 
Install\ProcessDesignerServer_8.3.02\Server\setup.exe and that seemed to have 
done something (it even put some entries in my ar.cfg file).

Not really sure what to do with it, however.

Maybe I am just not cut out for this Process Designer stuff. 

I'll bet the next version gets rid of all these problems.

Mid-Tier error ARERR [9350] Network protocol/data error when performing data operation. Please contact administrator

2012-07-03 Thread John Baker

Hello

It's a bug in the Mid Tier. The stack trace is trying to convert a 
string, I assume read from the request, to a number. The string is empty 
and hence the parse fails, leading to the exception (which should be 
caught and handled, but isn't).


I think you'll need to collect a Fiddler trace to find out what request 
is causing this to happen, as that's the root cause.

Sorry, I missed that part. I'm surprised that Fiddler changes the way 
the Javascript runs - you may want to think about using wireshark to get 
a packet trace, but that's quite low level stuff.

WWRUG12 Submission Deadline - Extended!!

2012-07-03 Thread bullcreek.com
Hello fellow ARSLister's and WWRUG'ers,

A couple of great things have happened since my last (mid-week) blast to you 
(from Bangalore, India).

1.  We have extended the deadline for submissions to July 9, 2012 to 
accommodate lots of folks on holiday and PTO.
2.  We have expanded the scope of the conference to include presentations on 
ADDM, Analytics, and Cloud based services (Remedy as a Service).
3.  We have received over 30 NEW submissions since my last email to you all two 
weeks ago.

With that said, you have less than a week to get your topics submitted to the 
board for review.  If you have not submitted your topic you can do so at 
www.wwrug.org/register (registers you for topic management, NOT the conference).

If you have already submitted your topic, you should have received an email 
from us acknowledging your submission.  I simply don't have the bandwidth to 
list all of the topics here.  Once we have made our selections, they will be 
posted here and all the submitters will receive email notices of their topic's 
status.

Looking forward to seeing you all in San Jose, CA this October.
