Re: Map http://midtierservername to a midtier URL such as http://midtierservername/arsys/home?

I have IIS 6, Tomcat 5.5.17 w This is for web server/jsp engine gurus. I have IIS 6, Tomcat 5.5.17 with Midtier 7.0.1. I tried messing with IIS's configuration so that http://midtierserver name would map to something like http://midtierservername/arsys/home, so people wouldn't have to type a long URL. Couldn't get it done. IIS's virtual mapping wants me to pick a folder to map to not a URL like above. Also, it wants an alias to map to, so even if I could get it done, looks like the URL will look like, http://midtierservername/aliasname. I see iisstart.htm file in the default directory, which contains the error message that's displayed when I type http://midtierserver. Wondering if there's any trick I can play with this file to have it redirect to http://midtierservername/arsys/home or any other midtier URL. Any thoughts? TIA.

Re: w3wp.exe pegs CPU randomly - ARS 6.3
Are you running ITSM?...this sounds like the Mid-Tier caching itself the first time someone access the app in the morning...if I'm not mistaken 6.3 Mid-tier will clear it's cache of unused items during down periods (overnight)...and the first person to request the page will get a delay while it's caching. If this is the case...then a properly configured 7.1 mid-tier should alleviate your issues as 7.1 has persistent cache capabilities. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Julie Rockwood Sent: Friday, October 12, 2007 12:23 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: w3wp.exe pegs CPU randomly - ARS 6.3 Hello list, Calling all Win 2003 Remedy geeks. We are having production problems on our win 2003, ARS 6.3 patch 14 mid-tier server. Below is an email from my system administrator describing the problem. If anyone has any ideas, we would sure appreciate it. Julie I manage the server instances for our ARS team which are the following: Mid-tier: W2K3/IIS6.0/ServletExec 5.0/ARS 6.3 - VMware Application: W2K3/ARS 6.3 - VMware Database: Oracle 9i on AIX 5.3.x Anyway, I'm seeing the w3wp peg the CPU on the mid-tier almost every morning, rendering the web server inoperable (even for static html rendering). If I temporarily remove the ServletExec ISAPI filter, static html rendering is fine and CPU utilization is normal. Re- insert the filter and perform an iisreset - the same behavior occurs. If I wait about 15-20 minutes (this problem occurs almost daily at 6:30 so customers aren't complaining yet) the problem clears itself out and everything is working fine. If I monkey with it (iisresets, rebooting, etc) the problem perpetuates itself even longer. We're moving towards a ARS 7.1 install on new infrastructure, so I'm hoping this will fix it - but in the meantime if anyone has run into this (and possibly fixed it) any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

I came across the AssigneeGroupAccess group the other day...didn't know why it added it...but yes you are correct...the upgrade stomps (just like all previous upgrades) on the user form...had to add a few things back in to the form for my app to work again...interesting stuff really -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carey Matthew Black Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 9:50 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: v7.1 and the User/Group/Role forms w/ new stuff ( Standard WebServices, strange workflow...) All, I have started to look at a clean install (no existing db) of v7.1 in some detail and I have found a few interesting things. Has anyone noticed the OOB Web Services that are in the base Server? I see three Public (Group access) web services: User Roles Group The form permission for the forms are as such: User: Public(hidden) Group: Administrator (only) Roles: Administrator (only) So the User Web Service and the form it points at (User) are Publicly accessible. However User's field 1 only has one group with access to it. Drum role AssigneeGroupAccess. (No I did not stutter.) Which turns out to be 'Group ID' = 60988. ( Field 2 and 4 no longer have access to the records unless their 'Login Names' are added to the 'Dynamic Group Access' (field ID 60988) field. Ok.. so the data should be safe by default. However this construct raises a few questions for me too... I wonder if the installer does the super smart thing and reviews the permissions on field 1 on the User form before the changes and adjust the permissions on the field 1 and/or the data in 'Dynamic Group Access' after the changes? Or maybe it will just stomp on the User form (like it has in previous upgrades and trash the customizations that customers have made to the permissions? (and then leave the existing data totally unaccessible to anyone except admin?) Has anyone attempted to upgrade an existing server to v7.1 and have had customizations to the permissions on the form/fields? (Any one know if the customizations were stepped on or maintained?) OH.. and the 'Status' field actually has two values now. (Current(0), and Disabled(1)) And there is an OOB filter (User:SetUserStatusCurrent) that test for ( 'Status' = 20) AND So I doubt that filter will ever be true. :( Maybe some of the OOB apps add more 'Status' values to the User form?)

If you have a client install base then you need to worry about SMS (or some other package distribution mechanism). Another is the consistent client...most places use a standardized browser...so you don't need to worry about what patch level someone is on, etc Lightweight - Less network traffic between the client and the server honestly there are plenty of +'s and not many -'sI'm sure people plagued with bugs that affect them would argue with me...but we are a 100% mid-tier shop with about 900 users about to increase to 2000... _ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cheeti Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2007 9:47 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Mid-Tier ** Hi All Good Day for all.

Re: BMC Maintenance
I believe BMC works on an 'all or nothing' concept If you use the product, then it must be included in the list of things that are supported. Now...here is a question for you...do they expect you to continue paying support for that product after they no longer support it?or are they willing to drop the support price off of your contract once they no longer support the product? _ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sokol, Brian Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 1:14 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: BMC Maintenance ** I have a question on maintenance. We own several products one being SMS Discovery service which is now retired by BMC. They will provide support for the next year but will not provide any more upgrades. That being the case I wished to exclude it from our annual maintenance agreement. I am being told that I must fill out a purge agreement which states the following: 2. 3 CUSTOMER agrees that, once the License Purge has been completed, CUSTOMER has no right to use the original Product on the Current System. Now I thought when you buy a software license you own the license and can not be forced to pay maintenance for it. BMC is saying that I must pay maintenance for every one of their products that we have installed. This sounds very wrong to me. I understand we are not entitled to any support but we own the license and should be able to use the product. Right now our support maintenance has lapsed while I try to resolve this issue.

Re: Unique ID?
What you are trying to do is a request that people have had for table fields for quite a long time...to have the ability to make them unique. Currently I believe the only way to accomplish this would be to create a DB View requesting a distinct and then create a Remedy View of that DB View and use it as your table source... _ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wheeler, Dylan Sent: Friday, September 28, 2007 10:18 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Unique ID? ** Maybe it's too early in the day but I can't get my head wrapped around a problem. A group here needs to keep track of when records in a form gets modified. They want to be able to search for a date range and come up with the records modified in that date range. Simple enough. The problem I run into is if a record gets updated a month ago, then it gets updated today. If they do their time search for the records that were updated a month ago, it wont show in that list. So I created a table, every time the record gets modified it pushes to a new table and creates a timestamp record. Created a join form between the parent and the timestamp form. Works great except I can't get it to show me only unique records. So if a record gets modified twice in a time period, when they do their search on my join, it will show two of that record.

I mean, that encapsulation is the whole point of the DA. But why couldn't changes to the DA be migrated relative to what already exists on the destination server?

Re: Quick upgrade question about v6.3 patch 22 (Solaris/Sybase)
Well Carey, while I haven't performed the patch you are referring to (on Solaris at least) I'm going to say that you don't need to execute this script. The reason being is that the update of the Db is only necessary when going from one version to another. When applying patches to an existing version the only things that are patched are libs and executables. While it certainly shouldn't hurt anything for you to run the script I do not believe you need to. It is my understanding that the 'upgrade' first checks to see what version you are already running...if it finds that you are already running the same version as the version you are upgrading to then it simply exits and performs no changes. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carey Matthew Black Sent: Friday, September 21, 2007 6:36 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Quick upgrade question about v6.3 patch 22 (Solaris/Sybase) I have downloaded all of the individual files.

Vendor forms are at the software level...not the DB level so you can't do that.

We will no longer be using the arsystem.lic file or the multlicense.lic file. Those files are obsolete as of the 7.1 release.

This is a file with some licensing information for the approval server. There is a form in the system that can hold the data that is in this file, and in the future, applications will put the data in that internal form. For now, the system will check both the internal form AND this file for the tag information and will use it appropriately. HOWEVER, the upgrade does not copy the content of this file into the form (because there are versions of the applications that still will install in this file rather than the form). There is no need for you to do anything, the system will still reference the file if it is present. Over time, all apps will be updated to use the internal table that is now present and this file will not be needed. BUT, for the interum, you need this file. So, don't delete the directory if there is a .tag file in it. You can get rid of the two .lic files (although it is suggested that you keep a backup copy of arsystem.lic just in case and why not leave it there).

We're logging our users (creating ARUSER.LOG)on each of the 3 servers. Each of the 3 aruser.log files contain lines which include things like: FLOAT GRANT WRITE(9 of 100 write) FLOAT RELEASE(8 of 100 write) Meaning, I guess, that 9 of our 100 licences are currently consumed; then 8... Sometimes we get a line like: NO WRITE FREE ... when, presumably, all 100 licences have been taken. We merge this data from all 3 files and collect the data in an MS Access DB What's strange is that when we examine the number of licences consumed when we get the NO WRITE FREE message, it can exceed 100. E.g. the last line from Server A might say: (33 of 100 write) Server B .. (35 of 100 write) Server C .. (36 of 100 write) We're pretty sure that we *don't* get more licences than the number purchased, but wonder why the maths doesn't add up! Is ARUSER.LOG supposed to be an exact trace of licence checkout/checkin, or is it just a snapshot of some description? Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Re: Possible Table field Enhancement
First off I agree with you...it would be nice to be able to do this...but one of the complications associated with this is the fact that columns in tables use field ID's...those field ID's are used for things like colsum and such and wouldn't be available in these 'dynamic' tables. The only thing you would be able to do with these dynamic tables would be to display information...you wouldn't be able to interact with any of the data in any way because none of the columns exist and you wouldn't be able to write workflow against the nonexistant columns. I agree and have come across several instances where this type of thing would have been useful...but with my 'problem' defined...it makes the capability less interesting/useful _ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Opela, Gary L Contr OC-ALC/ITMA Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2007 6:46 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Possible Table field Enhancement ** Well, I don't think you can already do this, but I could see it coming in use occasionally. I would like to have the ability to set the contents of a table using Direct SQL and external(). This way I could dynamically build a query string, then use external to present it to the table field. I would like to see Direct SQL as an option in the 'Form:' field on the Table Property tab in the admin tool. The 'Field on Form:' and the 'Field as Column' areas would be blank, as they would just pull the list of fields from your SQL statement. You would enter your SQL (hardcoded) or the External() function in the current 'Qualification bar' on the Table Property tab. They do this functionality with Set Fields. You have the option to select Direct SQL as an option to choose SQL in the 'Read Value for Field From:' field instead of choosing a form or the current transaction. I would like to see this mimicked in a Table field. I've only needed this twice, and both times have had to identify a work-around. I don't want to have to create an SQL view in the database every time I need to work around this. What is your input? Have you come across a situation where this would be handy (such as when you need to join two tables)? Another solution that would have worked for me in the past is if I could have chosen multiple remedy forms to pull in data to my table, using a join statement in the 'Qualification bar', and going through the GUI to choose which fields show up from each form, similar to when you create a join form. The reason why I don't just create a join form to start out with is that in remedy, you cannot create a join form of two view forms, and you can only create joins of other remedy views. I don't want to have to go out to the database, create my own non-remedy join of the tables from which the other views pull from, and then point a view form on top of that join so that I can access it in a table. Also, this would allow me to be much more flexible in which data I present in a table. Instead of having multiple tables layered on top of each other, I can just dynamically send them their own SQL qualification and use only one table, just changing the contents it displays based on the user, or based on some other options the user chooses. This could really eliminate the need for using multiple table fields in a lot of situations which I've seen.

Re: Guided Entry
Ok...now this is really rusty in my head...so please forgive the cobwebs...but when Active Link Guides were first presented they were presented for exactly what you are talking about. Here is what I remember of the process 1 Create Button and AL that starts the guide 2a AL does a setfield to field 1 2b message action (ensuring to check that box that says something about displaying in prompt bar) that tells the user what to do in this field 2b wait action Repeat step 2 for each field. When the prompt bar checkbox is used it displays another area of the screen (at the bottom if I remember correctly) that displays the message. When they are done with that field they can either press Tab or a continue button that shows up in the prompt area. Then it goes to the next AL, so on and so forth until either the guide is exited (I think there is a cancel button automatically created) or you tell it to exit guide...or it finishes all of the AL's in the guide. It's a pain in the ass to setup but does exactly what Robert is looking for...the ability to provide field by field instructions.

I haven't made those yet, however, I believe what your after is the wait if-action of an active link. I believe how this works is that wait halts the guide allowing you to perform some other actions. In the wait if-action you specify the label of the button the user will press to continue the guide. As I am in the process of thinking this through for our own company, here's what I got so far. The way I kind-of figured this would work is to use the active link guide in conjunction with a page holder. On each page the information is organized into sections and the user is prompted on each page what to fill out. The guide would be strictly used as flow control over the page holder and instead of popping up message boxes, each page would have a text trim field explaining the fields and the data the user is supposed to enter. The user would simple fill out the fields on the page and click the continue button to allow the guide to move to the next page and so on. On an overview of the entire form, this whole page holder wizard would be in a separate view, on the form that the wizard is on, so that as the user is filling out the actual fields and when they save, there would be no need for the developer to use a push fields action to push the data to another form as they would simply need to commit changes. After the save, or when ever the form needs to be displayed, the form would just be re-opened to the original view that laid out all the information in what ever way you had it the first place.

Or another 'option' they might suggest is to provide an option on submit of 'who do you want this submitted as'then create all of the records as that user ID...remember the submitter doesn't need to be $USER$...it can be any user you want...I think that would fit all of the requirements to make it user maintainable and not cost any more licenses and stay within the BMC model -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Wallick Sent: Wednesday, July 18, 2007 1:46 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Providing Read/Write Access Without Buying Licenses? I Doubt It Here's an interesting for for y'all. We have a very good and fairly long relationship with a BMC partner that we use for consulting/development/purchasing and, when the time comes in November or so, we will also be using them for support instead of BMC. First, a little background. We use Remedy Customer Support 5.6 with a not-too-customized version of the Customer Access Interface deployed through the mid-tier. The submitter mode on the AR server is locked, so that customers with account using read licenses can submit and work their own tickets through the web. However, we have many customers that insist on using the phone for the initial submission of an issue, and then want to work the ticket from then on through the web. You see where I'm going with this? The customer can't update tickets via the web if they were not the submitter, unless they have a fixed or floating license. Floating licenses are expensive, so we've been reluctant to go down that road. Our VP of support doesn't like the BMC partner that we've been using nearly full time for the past two years (they're GREAT, BTW), so now this VP is bringing in another consulting firm who claims that for $6400, they will solve the customer access interface licensing problem without purchasing any new licenses from BMC and also in a BMC approved manner. I call B.S. First, I find it hard to believe that BMC would allow some sort of scheme where you can get away with not buying licenses and still give your customer base read/write access to their tickets. Second, how else would one run a server in locked submitter mode, while still allowing customers to modify their tickets even if the ticket was submitted on their behalf by a tech support agent? The first thing that comes to mind would be to have a trigger or scheduled job or something at the database level change the submitter column to the customer's login name on insert of a new record. I seriously doubt that's a BMC approved solution. Perhaps this firm is going to suggest something like having the customer's log in but all the actual interaction with ARS will be proxied through a single user with a fixed license and all the necessary permissions. But even that seems like something that BMC might balk at. Thanks.

I haven't seen a problem in resulting (100 or so) records. * I've also checked the Submitter field #2 for other names it may have. 2.

Hi Leigh, You ought to be able to determine whether workflow modifies a Submitter field's contents by querying the ARS database. Run SQL queries against the filter_set, filter_push, actlink_set, and actlink_push tables to see whether fieldId 2 (Submitter) is the object of any set-field or push-field actions. The escalation actions are stored along with the filter actions, so you'll get 2-for-one there. That would not catch any direct-SQL modifications to Submitter, but I am not certain that having submitter mode = locked prevents those anyway.

Form Permissions Stripped
Ok...here is a situation at my current position that I can't understand. ARS 6.3 P21 Server 2003 SQL 2000 You have an existing deployable application on server B. On server A you add a new form to that same deployable application. If you then import the new from into Server B the admin tool strips the role permissions because it is not part of the deployable app...so you now add that new form to the application...and re-import and all works well...so we have a chicken and egg situation...we have a deployable application which doesn't contain the form...and a form that doesn't exist...so we can't add it. We contact Remedy support about this issue and get the fabled 'functions as designed' reply...another co-worker found an option in Migrator that tells it to bring any 'missing' forms over with an application during migration...which seems to work...but I can't believe they would put you in this catch 22 without a solution...any suggestions on how this could be done without errors without having to import things multiple times? ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:Where the Answers Are

Re: Form Permissions Stripped
I understand and utilize the differences between a form def and an application def. I don't view deployable applications as a single unit as you apparently do. I may be a bit 'old fashioned' in that respect...but I still migrate only changes and not the entire application...likely why I come across this type of thing...:) -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carey Matthew Black Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2007 10:10 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Form Permissions Stripped L.J., I think your dealing with the deployable application paradigm a bit wrong. I think of the deployable application is one logical unit. So, I am not sure it makes any sense to move only a form (that is part of a deployable application) from server to server. No more since than moving an Active link, Filter or Menu either. I think you should move the application, not parts of it. I also suspect that your not exporting the application but your exporting the form object(s). The difference is in the admin tool (Tools-- Export Definitions...-- To Definition File) vs ( Tools -- Export Application) . If you look at the two files you will see differences in the format/data.
