Re: Case Upper or Lower
That is what we did, everything in the DB is upper case. But from the user stance it is seamless. Most of the data that the user interacts with we turned to all caps when it was being passed to the DB. Also when the employee was searching, we turned that to all caps so it would find a match in the DB. It was some extra workflow but it makes it a lot less confusing on the customer.

Re: Odd Email Behavior
Mark, I have not worked on these in awhile and it was on 6.3 but I remember that when I was doing HTML templates for emails in remedy that the only way a value would display on the HTML template is if the field had public permissions. So if the field did not have public permissions the value would not show up in the HTML email at all. I think that is what you were asking about.

If you are running unix remove it from the /etc/arsystem directory (note: it's a hidden file) and restart the server. In addition check to see if you are allowing guest users. He may be misspelling his user id and the system is letting him in any way as a guest user. The last thing I would do is check his CTM:People record vs. what is actually in his User record.

I see this happen periodically when for some reason the ticket sequencing generator is getting set but the Request ID on the end form never gets sets, perhaps because some user never completed the commit. The ticket generation form can also be used to 'save' a range of numbers for Request ID's if you ever need to import a set with a specific range of numbers. I would recommend you look for the Ticket Number Generation form if one was built for your custom app and perform a query on. You can then perhaps see these 'missing' numbers and run a report to see that they are not 'active' numbers.

For example, applications within the ITSM suite of products (Change Management, Asset Management, Service Desk) will be revisioning collectively as BMC Remedy ITSM 7.6. Other applications may also revision to a version 7.6 over the next several months. AR System is not revisioning to version 7.6 in that same time frame. AR System will remain at version 7.5.00 until the next major release - which is tentatively scheduled to occur in mid 2010. The tentative numbering for the next AR System release is 8.0.00. When AR System 8.0.00 releases, then AR System 7.0.01 would become unsupported. When AR System 8.0.00 releases, the supported AR System versions would then be 8.0.00, 7.5.00 and 7.1.00. 7.1.00 would be the C-2 release and thus be in limited support as per the BMC Product Support Policy. -David J.

I posted a blog entry about this on BMC DN: http://communities.bmc.com/communities/community/bmcdn/bmc_atrium_and_foundation_technologies/bmc_remedy_ar_system/blog/2009/01/21/company-brand-product-version---why-all-are-important-to-keep-straight Several BMC Remedy applications will soon be revisioning to a version of 7.6. For example, applications within the ITSM suite of products (Change Management, Asset Management, Service Desk) will be revisioning collectively as BMC Remedy ITSM 7.6. Other applications may also revision to a version 7.6 over the next several months. AR System is not revisioning to version 7.6 in that same time frame. AR System will remain at version 7.5.00 until the next major release - which is tentatively scheduled to occur in mid 2010. The tentative numbering for the next AR System release is 8.0.00. When AR System 8.0.00 releases, then AR System 7.0.01 would become unsupported. When AR System 8.0.00 releases, the supported AR System versions would then be 8.0.00, 7.5.00 and 7.1.00. 7.1.00 would be the C-2 release and thus be in limited support as per the BMC Product Support Policy. -David J.

Re: Looking for best way to upgrade from 7.0.1 to 7.1.0
Tim, I will give you an account of what I have been through. We did the same thing as you going from 7.0 to 7.1 and we have 6 different environments that I did this on. It really depends on how you did your customizations because when a AL comes in from the patch it will overwrite what is OOB. So for example if you took an AL that was OOB and renamed it as your own and then made your changes and disabled the OOB one then all the patch would do is come through and re-enable the OOB one. So you would just have to disable the OOB one as well. Now if you just changed the OOB AL and did not rename it then the patch is going to blow out your changes. As for the forms, I was told by BMC and we experienced the same thing that if you add a custom field to a OOB form and do not use their range then you should be fine. We had the same experience in that all the fields we added where there and did not get deleted, however sometimes the patch does take them out of the view so change that before you start freaking out. So basically what we did after the patches is went through and did extensive testing on what the patch changed and then when we went to production we had a def file of all the stuff we needed to change back. Import the patch and then import the changes and we were good to go. It was actually easy doing in production but that was because we did a lot of testing. I did notice the most annoying thing was that the patch change permissions we added to OOB forms. Like the user form. We made it public read and every time we run a patch it seems like it removes that permission, but again those are the things we found out during testing. All in all I do not think it was too bad but again that depends on your development standards and how you change OOB forms and workflow. Let me know if I can be of anymore help.

All, I wanted to make everyone aware of an anomaly I found with the menu qualifications in the the Operational/Product tiered menus attached to the HPD:HelpDesk form in Incident Mgt v7.5.01. The qualifications, used in the Incident Mgt v7.5 menus to pull in the menu values from Company Module Relationship Config dialog forms for both the Operational and Product categorizations are different from the Incident Mgt 7.1 versions of the same menus (they are even the same name). The qualifications found in the v7.5 menus disables the functionality offered by the checkboxes under the support modules (User Service Restoration, Infrastructure Event etc) on the Company/Module Relationship configuration forms for displaying or hiding Categorizations based on Incident type field on the Incident form. NOTE: I have not compared the menu qualifications for Change and Problem Mgt menus yet. Has anyone else seen this behavior with ITSM patch 7.5.01? And if so have you put in a request for this to be fixed in the next patch for Remedy 7.5? Below is a side by side comparison of the menu qualifications from both 7.1 and 7.5. Notice that dynamic field values from the Configuration forms (ex. $10001$) are used in the version 7.1 menus allowing for the menu to cross check to allow the Categorizations to display or hide: Operational Tiered Menus Primary Form: HPD:HelpDesk Secondary From: CFG:Service Catalog LookUp Operational Tier 1 Menu - CFG:CTL:S1-HPD-Q (ITSM 7.5.01) Qualification (7.5): ((('Status-CAT' = Enabled) AND ('Status-CTA' = Enabled)) AND 'Company' = $Company$) OR ('Company' = - Global -)) AND ($Company$ != $NULL$)) OR ($Company$ = ))) AND (($Service Type$ = User Service Request) AND ('Request Selection' = Yes)) OR (($Service Type$ = User Service Restoration) AND ('Service Restoration Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = Infrastructure Restoration) AND ('Infra Restoration Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = Infrastructure Event) AND ('Infra Event Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = $NULL$) AND ('Help Desk Selection' = Yes))) Qualification (7.1): ( 'Status-CAT' = Enabled) AND ( 'Status-CTA' = Enabled) AND 'Company' = $11$) OR ( 'Company' = - Global - )) AND ($11$ != $NULL$ )) OR ($11$ =)) AND ((($100099$ = User Service Request) AND ( 'Request Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = User Service Restoration) AND ( 'Service Restoration Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = Infrastructure Restoration) AND ( 'Infra Restoration Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = Infrastructure Event) AND ( 'Infra Event Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = $NULL$ ) AND ( 'Help Desk Selection' = Yes))) Operational Tier 2 Menu - CFG:CTL:S2-HPD-Q (ITSM 7.5.01) Qualification (7.5): ('Status-CAT' = Enabled) AND ('Status-CTA' = Enabled)) AND 'Company' = $Company$) OR ('Company' = - Global -)) AND ($Company$ != $NULL$)) OR ($Company$ = ))) AND (($Service Type$ = User Service Request) AND ('Request Selection' = Yes)) OR (($Service Type$ = User Service Restoration) AND ('Service Restoration Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = Infrastructure Restoration) AND ('Infra Restoration Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = Infrastructure Event) AND ('Infra Event Selection' = Yes))) OR (($Service Type$ = $NULL$) AND ('Help Desk Selection' = Yes AND ('Categorization Tier 1' = $Categorization Tier 1$)) AND ('Categorization Tier 2' != $NULL$) Qualification (7.1): ( 'Status-CAT' = Enabled) AND ( 'Status-CTA' = Enabled) AND 'Company' = $11$) OR ( 'Company' = - Global - )) AND ($11$ != $NULL$ )) OR ($11$ =)) AND ((($100099$ = User Service Request) AND ( 'Request Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = User Service Restoration) AND ( 'Service Restoration Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = Infrastructure Restoration) AND ( 'Infra Restoration Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = Infrastructure Event) AND ( 'Infra Event Selection' = Yes)) OR (($100099$ = $NULL$ ) AND ( 'Help Desk Selection' = Yes))) AND ( 'Categorization Tier 1' = $100063$) AND ( 'Categorization Tier 2' != $NULL$ ) Operational Tier 3 Menu - CFG:CTL:S3-HPD-Q Qualification (7.5): (('Status-CAT' = Enabled) AND ('Status-CTA' = Enabled)) AND 'Company' = $Company$) OR ('Company' = - Global -)) AND ($Company$ != $NULL$)) OR ($Company$ = ))) AND (($Service Type$ = User Service Request) AND ('Request Selection' = Yes)) OR (($Service Type$ = User Service Restoration) AND ('Service

Re: Capture Client Version

Some of our contractors Push/Pull data from our AR System to their custom tracking program. That interface uses older API's. I would turn on Active Link logging on the Client. That should trap the Active Link that is creating the record. From there you could add workflow that adds IP address, etc to further identify the source.

Re: Adding an Incident field to SRM

I was able to use some temporary display only fields to do the work (since I didn't want to add any fields to the form) on the HPD:Help Desk form (plus a couple of filters) but when I tried to create a field in SRM to capture the data and pass it on to Incident, I got nothing but errors (ARERR 311 to be exact). So I worked with BMC to find out why. It turns out that not only do you have to configure SRM to use a specific field on the Incident form, which is fairly not straightforward, you have to update the HPD:Help Desk staging form (which sits between SRM and HPD:Help Desk) and update a Filter that pushes the staging form data to Incident. Needless to say, none of this is documented. And (shocker!) BMC doesn't even follow its own recommendations when it comes to staging forms or filter creation (they have the Matching IDs option for a reason). So, to make it less painful for the next person, I wrote it all up in a little document which I would like to attach to this post. But I can't. So if anyone else out there would like a copy of the Word doc, let me know. -scott philben sphil...@mac.com ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: RMI Solutions ARSlist: Where the Answers Are ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: RMI Solutions ARSlist: Where the Answers Are

Re: ITSM - checker utility for first ITSM install
If you look at the install guides for any of the ITSM apps, Incident, Change etc.. it will tell you in which order to install. I have installed all components on all different OS’s and many different customers. The problem I have had is there is always a different gotcha with different customers. There does not appear to be any functionality. I would recommend that you read all of the install guides for the apps you are installing. I would recommend that you keep to BMC’s requirements for hardware among other things. The rest is just going to come with experience.

The equivalent of that bat file on windows is the startup.sh file in UNIX. On this file there is a JAVA_OPT parameter that already has default settings for -Xms and -Xmx with the sizes as arguments. On that same line after or before these parameters insert the -Xincgc parameter with no arguments. Stop Tomcat and then restart it by running the bat file. Before running the bat file however make sure all the paths for various other parameters such as JAVA_HOME, CATALINA_HOME etc are correct. Alter then if you have used anything other than default paths to install Tomcat. Beyond this my knowledge of setting and running Tomcat from the bat file on windows is limited as I more experience with running it on UNIX / Linux..

Re: Vista Issues with 7.0 User tool.
We actually found out that it is his machine for some reason because we have other users with Vista that are having no issues. I have also found the issue with Spell checker but that always does not appear to happen with all vista installation.

We don't have a fix, only a workaround: Alt-Tab to the spell-check window. (And there's a registry hack to revert to the classic Alt-Tab icons if you don't like the Vista default ones or find them to be hard to decipher. Just go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer and create a DWORD called AltTabSettings and set it to 1.) If your print-a-ticket option involves a Crystal Report, it sometimes prints 15+ copies of the ticket. We finally fixed it by having our print option create a ReportLink report and print that instead, but our IT department also found that there was a print driver option pertaining to spooling (and I'm sorry, but I forget the details off the top of my head) that would resolve this problem if you changed it from the default value. If anyone is interested, I can probably dig those details up. Kevin, for your problem, I'd just suggest some generic troubleshooting steps, if you haven't tried these already: 1. Can you tell if they're authenticating properly? 2. See if they have the same problem logging in from a different machine. That will at least help you narrow it down whether it's a machine problem or an account problem. 3. If it's clearly an account problem and they log in via a Preference Server, blow away the Preferences file and have them log in again so it recreates. 4. If it's a machine problem, clear out their local ARS cache (most likely c:\users\all users\ar system\home, though it can be under their own profile instead of all users if they elected to have Remedy available for just themselves during the installation process.) We've found that weirdness happens once the users reach 100+ folders in the local cache. Good luck!

If my original suggestion to clear the local ARS cache doesn't help, then have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the Remedy client? If that doesn't help, what about this guy's setup is different from the users who aren't having the problem? You might consider bringing one of your desktop support people in on this to get their perspective/assistance, because they tend to know more about what a standard configuration in your organization should look like and the stuff I'm going to throw out is probably more in their job description than yours. Back when I was still in desktop support, I had many cases where there would be some weird problem a user was having, and when I went by to take a look, I'd notice something about their setup that was a little out of the ordinary, and if I would remove that out-of-the-ordinary thing from the equation (or at least shift it around a bit), voila, the problem went away. Here is a random grab bag of out of the ordinary things you might consider: * John Reiser mentioned the dual monitor setup in 2-1 configuration. Does switching that around solve the problem? * Does this guy have some sort of elevated privilege or Smart Card or two-factor account when the other users around him don't? If so, and he can remove the Smart Card and still be logged in, does that resolve the problem. * Does he have some weird little program he's running that could be running on the same port as the Remedy client? Remove it and see if he still has the problem. * Does he use something like a KVM switch (for running multiple computers from the same keyboard/video/mouse) and if so, does he have the problem if he doesn't use it? * Does he use a wireless/keyboard or mouse and if so, does using a standard one resolve the problem? Or, does he just need to change the battery? Or, is he using it from a position where it can't communicate properly with the receiver? * Does he experience weird behaviors with other apps that access the network? If so, could be an issue with his NIC, or with the connection between his desk and wherever your ARS Server is (we have some external users who access our Remedy server via a VPN switch of some kind, and we've had problems with the VPN switch mangling some of the Remedy-specific authentication packets and causing the users all sorts of grief.)

Re: SSO with Tomcat/IIS on 7.0
We have had issues with this in the past where the password for the mid tier application on the mid tier config page got out of sync with the mid tier application password on the AR Server. I would recommend resetting those and restarting the AR Server and IIS to make sure they sync up. You could even comment out the mid tier application password in the ar.cfg file on the AR Server to make sure it is correct. I know we have had to do that as well sometimes.

The issue I was having with this was related to Tomcat using authentication and not letting IIS handle it.
