RESOLVED: Data Management Tool in version 8 replaced by Atrium Integrator

2012-10-15 Thread Jiri Pospisil
Hi,

Finally, I found what the issue was (and please don't laugh). 
The status gets updated by an escalation and I left them disabled after running 
the initial installation scripts. So enabling escalations fixed the issue.

Thanks for your help and detailed information on how the data import works now. 
I have learnt a great deal more about it in the process.

Hi,
have you configured the CAI Plugin?

https://docs.bmc.com/docs/display/public/itsm80/Configuring+the+CAIPluginRegistry+form

The other thing to check is the NGIE:Config form to ensure all the 
configurations are correct.

Hi Carl,

Really appreciate your help.

I have so far tried Company and People upload and both got stuck on the Load 
step remaining in status of In Progress.

I found that the data is in fact present in staging forms, which would explain 
why directories do not contain any RESULT files with errors. 
After more digging, I found records in form DMT:SYS:SequencingEngine that 
relate to steps in the job.
If I manually updated the first step from In Progress to Completed, the rest of 
the steps in the Job are triggered and complete fine.

After more investigation, the only thing I can find in the javaplugin.log file 
is the following entry (set the logging level to DEBUG there):

Requested thread pool executor not found in pool for pool# : null so returning 
default thread pool executor pool# : 0

Not sure how/where to configure which thread pool the job should be using (and 
in fact not sure if the above is in any way relevant to the issue).
Only other piece of information I found was that there is a workflow which is 
meant to set the step status to Completed. It appears to originate from form 
DMT:ThreadManager (hence the potential connection to the message above?).

Any ideas/possible ways to further investigate would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jiri

Hi,
if it did not get past the load, then open the activity (step) and see if there 
are any errors.
If none, you need to check the directory that you have allocated for the 
initial settings can indeed be written to.
There is a test button that may report that it worked, but you need to ensure 
the directory it creates is there.  Also, you need to delete this directory 
before each test as it tries to re-create it.  Under the installation 
directories, you can find other error logs.

If there are no load errors, and there are no other steps completed, it usually 
indicates the above - no conversion, or conversion hanging whilst loading in 
the data.
When this step runs, you will see the job id created as the directory in the 
folder specified.  It was really picky on the format (UNC) and permissions.  I 
found that you have to cancel these jobs that have hung, and re-create them 
(there is an option to copy to new once cancelled).

I would start at the conversion directory as this is what took a while to get 
working, but once it did it all ran fine - apart from formatting errors and 
validation etc.  This loader appears to be a much more comprehensive validation 
tool.

Other errors you may see is the steps throwing an error but no description.  I 
have worked out these to be mainly records that already exist in the system, 
but no actual report raised (you can see these from the staging forms).

Cheers

Carl,

Thanks for the detailed description of the process. Managed to figure most of 
it, but pointer to how to troubleshoot will definitely be useful as I am at the 
moment stuck with the Load step In Progress and nothing else happening (using 
BMC People template).
Checked the arcarte.log file on the server and it reported the job as started 
and completed with no errors within a couple of seconds, but the step still 
sits in the In Progress status and there appears no way to move it forward. 
Same with the job

2012-10-15 Thread Murnane, Phil
Well, I tried including a space character after the  sign, but no help.  I'm 
going to try using a temporary file instead of a pipe inside the .bat file and 
see if that helps.  I may also check the Windows service to see if there's a 
way to allow the service to write to the console - perhaps I'll be able to get 
a glimpse of the command being run and get a hint that way.

Will keep everyone updated.

Thanks, Shafqat - I'll try with adding the space after the  sign.

I do need to use  though; to keep a running log of files that were processed 
(filename.ext is replaced frequently, and the log file keeps track of the 
date/time  size of each file).  If necessary I'll 'touch filename.log' to 
create the file for appending.

You're right that the exit command shouldn't be needed, but some of my testing 
resulted in AIE creating the file, but never exiting cmd.exe.  The result was 
that the first run of the AIE exchange would work, but second and subsequent 
runs failed because the file was still locked open by the orphaned cmd.exe.  
Also a new orphan cmd.exe was created each time the exchange ran, which is very 
bad.

It should work without forcing c:\windows\system32 into the path, and when I 
get this running I'll try removing the line from the .bat file.  Until that 
time I'll leave it in and hope it doesn't hurt anything.

Thanks Again,
--Phil

Hi
try

  dir c:\temp | find filename.ext  c:\temp\filename.log
 is append, sometimes if the file does not exist The append fails, I have no 
 idea why. also for some weird reason the space matters. The command will run 
 fine from a DOS prompt but will fail if run from within Remedy. Also since 
 you are uisng the /c option, you don't need the exit at The end.
windows\system32 is always in the global path so you do not need to set that, 
also since you are running the bat file from within Remedy, it does not set the 
path anyway.

Good Day, All:



I'm having trouble with an AIE job and am hoping someone else may have run into 
this issue.  I'm trying to use the process| feature to set a field with the 
return value of an external process.  Really I'm not interested in the return 
value, I just want the process to run.  The process is 
c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c c:\temp\filename.bat and the contents of the 
.bat file are:



set Path=C:\Windows\System32;%Path%

dir c:\temp | find filename.ext c:\temp\filename.log

exit



That's it - pretty darn simple.  So the data field mapping in AIE is 
process|c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c c:\temp\filename.bat .  The AIE 
exchange runs successfully, but nothing is logged to the file.  There's no 
indication of any failure in the AIE debug logs.



Any thoughts on what I could try?



Thanks,

--Phil

I think the minimum java version changed on this as well.. better double
check..
the new installers are checking memory and space.. and indeed you need some
crazy numbers for the newer versions. .like
9 gig for ITSM / ARS / SRM of ram.. and 2 gig table space, with 1 gig temp
space.. minimums..

Re: Illegal Group Reference error during data import

2012-10-15 Thread Rick Westbrock
When I called BMC on Friday they just asked for my Filter, API and SQL logs and 
said they would get back to me. I imported an ARX file with two good records 
ato generate the logs. They responded that importing the single bad record I 
had intially attached to the case caused the error but after importing my 
record to the Group form they did not get the error; they are still looking at 
the logs.

I tried comparing good  failed records in an ARX file but with over 770 fields 
on the form it proved quite challenging. I found a couple of suspects where the 
problem records had null fields but once I looked at the full ARC and import 
log files I found that there were records that imported fine with those same 
null fields and records that were not null that didn't import.

Thanks for the advice, I'll continue to work with Support on this one. I have 
this nagging feeling that somehow the mismatched ARS versions could be part of 
the problem but even that doesn't really make sense except that the groups were 
imported via ARX exports from the same older server.

Re: CMDB 7.6.4

2012-10-15 Thread ITSM Support
Hi,

 

The workaround could be as follows:

 

To restore the job on server A, job can be exported in an .arx file, but in
the process of exporting the job, the reconciliation console copies the
export information to clipboard and then you need to paste it in a text
editor and save it as .arx. 

In the pdf it is strictly mentioned that, do not use Microsoft notepad it
does not save the carriage returns and line feeds (CR+LF) properly this
could be the reason for Java.Lang.ArrayOutofbounds Exception.

 

Also while importing we use command: dataimport.bat -x ServerName -u
UserName -p Password -a Port -o ImportFile -l LogFile -e 179 -D 4
which has an option of log file, the log file generated while importing can
give a better information on this error.

 

HTH

Hi All,

 

One Sandbox RE job definition is no longer on Server B.  

Data was replicated from one server to another server, and different people
were involved.

We have a copy of the same Sandbox RE job definition on Server A.

How do you restore this one RE job from Server A to Server B?  

I know that RE jobs can be exported to a .arx file and then imported.  

However, the problem is Java.Lang.ArrayOutofbounds Exception 9 errors are
preventing the import.  The .arx file just opens and does nothing.

 

Do I have to re-create the entire job on Server B (from a copying the RE job
on Server A)?

If I do re-create the job on Server B, and the RE job has a different
instance ID than what was OOB - will this be a problem?

You can start the installer in debug mode by pressing Control L during the
start of the installer and at console you will see more output with install
of ARSystem.

Please confirm if you have your db in archive mode set on.

Hi people...

we have arrived at the conference and i can see remedy lovers all over the 
hotel sporting their orange badge holders and cool ruck sacks. 

Looking forward to meeting some of you at the welcome evening tonight...  but 
if anyone finds them self at a loose end due to not attending ay pre-conference 
sessions, say hi to a lonely first-timer in the bar, easy to spot with the 
RUGs=1 badge of shame  :-)

good luck all and have a good week!

ps..  has anyone worked out how to clone themself so they can attend 2

No shameful at all.  At least your badge doesn't say RUGs=0   :)

cooperate.

It's a combination of speaker availability on Friday, popularity of a given 
session, etc.

We have such great sessions this year that we are all in the same boat.  There 
are a number of sessions I would like to see that are happening at the same 
time.

Re: Get the recently created ID

Thank you both!

I generated another ID and pushed it to form. Didn't think about using a

 ** I have the next development problem.

 I make a PUSH to a form with `! to force it.

 This for has workflow that creates more requests at other forms.

 If I use $LAST_ID$ keyword I obtain the ID of the last created request,
 but not the one I just created.

 I mean:

 I create request EPL0042
 This request, creates request JIK0132 and LLM0822

 When I use $LAST_ID$ just after the PUSH I would like to read
 EPL0042, but instead of it, I obtain LLM0822

 And this request doesn't have any reference to the original request
 EPL0042.

 Any solution?

Hi Ravi,

what is the Portmapper setting? If you have set it to yes, then for next
install attempt, set it to F  use specific TCP port to run installer
again. I suspect might be an issue while assigning the port to AR.
