Re: BMC Remedy and Slack Integration

2017-05-12 Thread Mahesh
I did the integration on version 8.1 using the plugin (for outgoing) and
API (incoming) as LJ outlined in his email. So far, no issues.

Setting up the plugin and API takes a couple of hours and the Slack
integration should be another hour (customizing the Support Group form and
adding a couple filters on HPD:Help Desk/ WOI:Work Order etc..).

Thanks,

Re: SRM -> Work Order (automatic activation?)

2012-10-08 Thread Mahesh Chandra
This is not possible through configuration but definitely "Yes" through a small 
customization.

If the work order is being created from a Work Order template, use of the Type 
Fields to flag the Work order (Example: Type Field 10 = "Auto_Initiate"). If 
not using Work order Template, map the SR Type Field 10 on the SRD with the 
same value.

Create a filter on Work Order that will look at the above flag and move the 
status to "In Progress".

Looks like a defect because I was able to reproduce the issue on my system.

However, you can get around this issue by creating workflow that will delete 
the 
the entry in "ENT:Enttitlement Generate QUAL/CACHE" form just before the OOB 
workflow pushes it.

Re: Complex incomming email processing

2012-04-16 Thread Mahesh
 Here is what you need..

Forms:

1.  Incoming Processor: This form will store all Incoming Messages and
process the message for an Update/ Create action.



2.  Rules: This form will be used to configure rules to create Requests
based on the Incoming message either based on the incoming email address or
a keyword in the subject line.



Example:

· If the message is from sender X, create an Incident and assign to
Support Group 1.

· If the message has a "KEYWORD" in the subject line, create a Work
Order and assign to Support Group 2.



Workflow:



1)  Create a Filter on “AR System Email Messages” that will execute on
Submit and push all Incoming Messages to “Incoming Processor” form.

2)  Filters on “Incoming Processor”

a.  Check the subject line if it contains Incident/ Problem/ Change/
Request/ Work Order/ Task number. If “Yes”, parse the number and create the
corresponding work log entry.

b.  If the message doesn’t fall into “Update” action, check if there
are any associated rules in “Rules” form for a Create action.

c.   If none of the above, ignore the message.

Thanks
Mahesh

Re: SRM Issue

2011-12-10 Thread Mahesh
You could a build a Menu based question that queries CTM:People using the
keyword $USER$ and have the user chose the value from the drop-down.

But if the information is strictly for fulfillment purpose, the forms
(Incident, Work Order, Change etc..) already have additional details (apart
from what is displayed on Request Entry Console) and if needed, you can add
more fields and a simple set fields filter action to populate the
information.

Thanks

Re: firing active-link on row choice when view field

In case you are trying to load images in the view field, you will need a
"Call Guide" action that does the table loop and sets the images in the view
field.

Re: 911: SRM WSDL

2011-09-08 Thread Mahesh
Is there a specific reason you want to skip the staging form ?

The easiest/ quickest thing would be to configure a SRD that uses Work Order
Template and use the OOB WSDL "SRM:RequestInterface_Create". Of-course, you
could create a custom WSDL that will create a Work Order directly but I
would recommend to leverage the "SRM:RequestInterface_Create".

Thanks

Re: Staging Forn for WSDL Data?

2011-08-30 Thread Mahesh
There is no out-of-the-box Web Service for Work Order. So, if you are
creating a Work Order directly without a Service Request, you will need to
build one using the form "WOI:WorkOrderInterface_Create".

You can also configure a Service Request Definition that uses a Work Order
template associated with Tasks and have the external application consume
the web service "SRM_RequestInterface_Create_WS" which will then generate
Service Request --> Work Order --> Tasks.

Thanks
Mahesh

Re: SRM WSDL

2011-08-18 Thread Mahesh
There is an OOB webservice ("SRM:RequestInterface_WS" ) through which you
can create Service Requests.

 Summary and Title Instance ID are two attributes used to lookup the SRD.

Re: Request Console vs. Direct Entry

2011-08-17 Thread Mahesh
---> We are bypassing the SR for a couple of requirements and build AIF
forms.  We will be building direct forms in some mcases and wanted to know
if surveys can be generated off of a direct custom form.

I am assuming that you have generated URL using the Context URL builder to
open the Request Entry Console in context. Even in that case, you would need
a SRD where you can build survey.

Re: Adding Custom Attributes to Base Element

One of the best practice with regards to customization is having a custom

I think Service Offering should determine the type of fulfillment

   sure that the right approver(s) (individual/ group) are mapped to their CIs.
   2. On the Change Request, create custom workflow to look-up the approver
   based on the CI selected and add them to the list of approvers at the

Re: ITSM 7.5 Change Management Business Approvals

2011-07-12 Thread Mahesh
I have implemented the same on a couple of ITSM 7.x implementations and here
is the level design for this customization.

   1. At the CI level, each application owner will be responsible to make
   sure that the right approver(s) (individual/ group) are mapped to their CIs.
   2. On the Change Request, create custom workflow to look-up the approver
   based on the CI selected and add them to the list of approvers at the

1) Each application Basically, you will need to make sure that the right
people are associated to the CI and have custom workflow that trggers

Re: 911: Bulletin Table

Create a backend form that would track each user acknowledging the bulletin
and upon login, the workflow will need to query this form.

You can also leverage the "User" form by setting some sort of flag for each
user record.

Re: SRM 7.6.04 Work Order Approval Process

2011-06-23 Thread Mahesh
Please refer the document "BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.6.04, Approval
Server Guide", section titled "Adding approvals to your application".

Also, please note that this is considered a customization and users will
require a license to approve these requests. Here is the explanation from
BMC (KB Article # KA342661).
*
*
* Please note that the ability for a user to act as an approver without a
license of any type (ARSystem or Application) extends only to the approval
server as integrated into Change Management Application or Asset Management
Application and Release Management.   This exemption is made available by
special ARSystem coding for BMC Remedy developed applications. *

*** **Approval server linked to any other application or form is considered
custom and therefore not covered by this exemption. Approvers therefore are
treated as any other user seeking to modify a record in ARSystem and will
need an ARSystem fixed or floating write license.*

Re: changing the next Field ID -- team wants to know

2011-06-21 Thread Mahesh
You will still need to plug in the field-id manually while creating the
field.

 1.   Create Two forms

a.   Form to configure the field ranges

b.  Form to generate the ID sequentially (you will need to write
workflow for this).

2.   Export the above to a def file.

3.   Import the def file to the developer's VM.

4.   Configure the starting range of field-id accordingly in the form
created in step 1(a).

Thanks

Pritch,
To handle that scenario we have a Field ID generator form on one of our
boxes that every developer uses when creating fields, it gives them the
'next' in a line, this prevents us from having that 'merge' issue that you

For us it's not a matter of knowing 'who did what'.  Since they are VM
images, everyone is working on separate copies which then get's merged via
passing of def files.  If we don't use range of field ID's, we end up with
all sorts of conflicts when we merge the forms / workflow.

Hi,

I just want to say that Mahesh suggestion is definitely the way to go.

The FLTR-Run-If (with a possible ACTL-shadow) should read:
('Field' LIKE "%[^A-Za-z0-9-_]%")
And then give you an appropriate error message.

This should work on any DB, as it has nothing to do with the database, it is
evaluated internally within the AR System.

The initial ^ is the negator (NOT) character.

This is not the same thing as (NOT 'Field' LIKE "%[A-Za-z0-9-_]%"), as this
would first find a match of the characters, and then negate it.

In the example "?A?" it would find the "A" and then negate it. In the first
suggestion above though it would find the first "?", which is a bad
character.

In other words the format [^...] is the only way to go.

The only thing I am not sure about is the dash-character (-), as it
specifies a range... You could try "%-_A-Za-z0-9]%" instead. Others have
suggested a backslash, but I do not think that will work here... Try
removing the dash altogether to see if you can get the rest to work at
least.

More importantly, exporting the data from SRM 2.2 and importing into SRM
7.6.04 is not supported.

Also, you have stated that it is an in-place upgrade. So, why are you still
exporting and importing?

Thanks
Mahesh

But I do have a question. You stated that it is an in-place upgrade from 2.2
to 7.6.04

SRD_Number (SRD ID) is Entry ID (Field ID 1) of the form
"SRD:ServiceRequestDefinition_Base".

You need to specify the corresponding SRD Instance ID to Submit a request
and not SRD Number.

Not possible with configuration, maybe customization which may be considered
a major or heavy customization.

If you want, you can design cell based table fields and render the content
as shown below. You will have to write workflow so that when Category 1 is
selected, Category 2 is displayed and Category 2 selection will refresh
category 3.

Extracting Circular Relationships from 'BMC_BaseRelationship'

2011-05-25 Thread Mahesh
Hi All


We have an issue with Atrium Impact Simulator basically crashing doing
nothing and BMC support says that it is because of the circular
relationships which are not allowed.


Example:


Considering the following as relationship records


 Record #

Source Recon

Destination Recon

1

A1.ReconID

A2. ReconID

2

A2. ReconID

A3. ReconID

3

A3. ReconID

A4. ReconID

4

A3. ReconID

A1. ReconID

5

A4. ReconID

A5. ReconID

6

A5. ReconID

A4. ReconID

7

A5. ReconID

A6. ReconID

8

A7. ReconID

A8. ReconID

9

A9. ReconID

A11. ReconID

10

A5. ReconID

A3. ReconID


here is an example of circular relationships


 Record #

Source Recon

Destination Recon

1

A1.ReconID

A2. ReconID

2

A2. ReconID

A3. ReconID

4

A3. ReconID

A1. ReconID

5

A4. ReconID

A5. ReconID

6

A5. ReconID

A4. ReconID



Now I am working on a SQL query to extract those circular relations from
“BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseRelationship” but cannot seem to get the right logic.


Any help is greatly appreciated,


Thanks in advance

Mahesh

Using the Data Management Tool spreadsheets, you can identify the forms

Re: SRD Service Request field mapping

2010-11-11 Thread Mahesh
Hi Christine

The data is already saved on the AIF and if you don't want to replicate the
data on multiple forms, you could view the Advanced Interface Form using
"View Service Request" --> "More Details". If this is too many clicks, I
would recommend creating a button and dynamically opening the corresponding
AIF. I usually hide the "View Service Request" link if the Request is using
AIF.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Mahesh

*Patch: *# 9005

*Summary:* ITSM Data Management Tool

*Details:* Tool that allow the bulk loading and validation of the
foundation, process setup and service desk transactional data
for ITSM 7.  In addition the tool allows for bulk updates to specific data.

Hi Ramon

Firstly, thanks for the details.

We were asked to delete all the custom join forms which we did and still no
success. May be "HPD:Help Desk_SLA" (which is out of the Box) is another
form that needs to be deleted.

This is definitely good information for other customers.

We did all the steps that were recommended by BMC and the result was same on
all three attempts. So, went ahead with a fresh installation of ITSM 7.6
Patch 1, migrated all the data and are ready to go-live in two weeks from
now.

Thanks

Re: Upgrading ITSM 7.0.3 to 7.6 doesn't seem to work

2010-10-19 Thread Mahesh
When we tried to upgrade from ITSM 7.0.03 Patch 9 to ITSM 7.6 Patch 1, the
installer ran for 26 hours eventually completing with warnings and the
Incident Management Error log indicated that lot of def files & arx
files were not imported.

Below are the details regarding this defect:
* * * * * * * * *
The issue with the defs not importing is because of this DEFECT SW00343855.
The defect is fixed in patch 3 of 7.5.1 however it hasn't been released yet.

What we would want to do is eventualy install 7.5.1 P3 to resolve the defect
then Run the 7.6.1 install.

As per the defect # SW00343855, you would have to upgrade to 7.5.1 Patch 3

Okay. The AIF opens in a dialog mode and you will have to use an Active Link

Re: Does an SRD affect a fields' default value?

Looks like the field mapping on  "Open Window" action is missing. Is this an

Re: SRM 7.6 Destroying ITSM 7.0.3 Email Generation?

Unfortunately it got past our testing since we aren’t allowed to have
the Email Engine on in our dev/test environment.

You may want to build work-flow to ensure that emails go out only to the
desired People. This is of huge advantage during UAT sessions.

ITSM 7.6 Notification sub-system doesn't contain the following forms.

   1. NTE:SYS-Group NT Control
   2. NTE:SYS-Individual NT Control

Make sure if these forms exist as ITSM 7.0.03 uses them.

Re: modifying OOTB incident create Web Service

Why not create a custom Web Service which should be fairly easier and
quicker ?

Another thing that may not be directly related to this subject is the Search
criteria or various forms.

For example, on the Incident we can search for a person based on Last Name,
Corporate ID, Email but not Login ID and then it retrieves everyone ignoring
the People "Profile Status".

I think it should retrieve People only with a profile status of "Enabled".

Thanks

Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?

2010-08-04 Thread Mahesh
This is what I would do.

   1. A Staging Form to store all Incoming Emails.
   2. A filter on "AR System Email Messages" that will push the Incoming
   email to the above staging form.
   3. Filter(s) on the staging form to parse the number (using functions
   STRSTR, LTRIM, SUBSTR) from the subject line.
   4. Filter that will push the incoming email message to the corresponding
   work log based on the above parsed number.

Thanks
Mahesh

Re: disable auto assignement

I think you have assignment configuration records that are selected for
"Problem Management" too. In that case, de-select Problem management under
"Available Systems".

Re: ARS v7.5 - importing forms changed Table ID

2010-07-28 Thread Mahesh
I am assuming that you will have the same issue in future migrations/upgrade
and I would rather spend time analyzing/ tweaking/ optimizing workflow
by removing hardcoded values, use Views in Direct SQL etc.. which may result
in better system performance.

Just an opinion.

Re: ARS v7.5 - importing forms changed Table ID

2010-07-28 Thread Mahesh
I would also recommend querying the "ARSCHEMA" table to get the "View Name"
and then in the next action use that view name.

Example:

Action 1: SELECT ViewName FROM ARSCHEMA WHERE NAME = '$SCHEMA$'

Action 2: UPDATE $ViewName$  SET ....WHERE

Thanks
