Re: How to get a table in a form to be populated with data on form load

Re: Work Order Console issue
Hi Mark, Please check below details for your issue: Cause: When we open WO Console, an Active Link 'WOI:WOC:ServiceCall_0_Initialized' sets COMPANY field with value of company name of user currently logged in (in our case - Company A). Click 'More Filters' link on WO Console RHS top. Click the contacts tab and check the Company Name in field Company (Requested By section) cid:image001.png@01CE6867.54158620 When you clear this field and click on Apply (you can also click on Clear All button directly besides Apply), the Work Order Ticket for Company B will reflect in the WO Console table. However, there is a defect in this too. When you select another company in the drop-down list, no value appears on the WO console. This is because of an Active Link which builds the qualification for the WO Console Table field. The ACTL name is 'WOI:WOC:AdvancedQBE_Build_RQBCompany'. Changes required: ACTL Name : WOI:WOC:AdvancedQBE_Build_RQBCompany Action: Set Fields Value Field: Old value -(($z1D_AdvancedQBE$ + AND 'Company' = ) + $Company$) + Corrected Value -(($z1D_AdvancedQBE$ + AND 'Customer Company' = ) + $Company$) + This will resolve the issue. -- Regards, Akshay Vyom Labs Pvt.

Re: Development server issues - more
Hi Mark, There are many approaches to resolve ARERR-102 and ARERR-93 For ARERR-102: ARERR 102 is an error that happens when a field that is used in 'Advanced' workflow to reference a form or server name or 'Advanced' table fields to reference a form or server name is empty. This typically happens when there is missing data in containers that have information about servers or forms, and a set field operation that finds no data set fields to null. It also could happen if you have changed a form name and the data containing form names may have not been edited to reflect the renamed form. For ARERR-93: IF development cache mode is off and you do perform admin operations (in admin tool) its not very uncommon that operations time out - especially if you have users working on the system at the same time. In development mode, the admin thread for API calls does not copy the cache but locks incoming threads out of the existing cache and waits for threads currently using the cache to complete their operations before performing changes. The thread will not release the cache until the end of the API call. No time is spent copying the cache so operations have a smaller memory footprint and are performed faster than in production mode. Development mode is intended for servers whose main purpose is application development. It is unsuitable for servers with a large number of application users in a production environment because the operations of those users will be blocked when forms and workflow are changed, especially when many structures are changed, such as when importing an application. The AR System Server manages the database connections. we can optimize the number of threads at AR System level to optimize the number of database connections opened by the AR System server.(Increasing no of threads will help to resolve error 93) Apart from above, please check if there are any CMDB jobs running on server which keeps server busy.

Re: CMDB 8.1 Index on Name Field
Hi, There is nothing mention about indexing in CMDB 8.1 to improve performance. We can add index for better performance as per doc provided by BMC. - Indexing classes can reduce database query time. Index attributes that: *You expect users to query frequently. *Are used by discovery applications to identify CIs. *Are used in reconciliation identification rules. For more information about identification rules, see the BMC Atrium CMDB 8.1 Normalization and Reconciliation Guide. If you create an index for a Character attribute, you can save query time by setting the QBE Match characteristic of that field to Leading or Equal instead of Anywhere. Use the Indexes section on the General tab of the CI Class and Relationship Class dialog boxes to specify the indexes for a class. You can specify indexes on noninherited attributes only. If an attribute is inherited form a superclass, you must specify the index for that attribute on the superclass. Display-only attributes cannot be indexed, because no values are stored for them. To combine multiple attributes into a composite index, specify as many as 16 attributes per composite index. The sum of all attribute lengths in a single index must be fewer than or equal to 255 bytes, so Diary attributes and Character attributes larger than 255 bytes cannot be indexed -- Regards, Pawan Vyom Labs Pvt.

I see that 8.1 does not have an index on the name field either, and figure I'm going to have to add it. We haven't loaded all of our CIs yet, so I can't test that aspect myself. Before I add the index, I wanted to make sure I'm not missing some new feature or something else that BMC might have done to improve performance when searching by CI name.

Hi, AIE is not that much intelligent to read columns with spaces in it. Otherwise frequently we need to use some functions like LTRIM, RTRIM etc provided by AIE to truncate the spaces. Always we need to make sure that the header columns doesn't contain leading/trailing space and possibly avoid spaces in mid. For example, CI Name should be modified to CIName or CI_Name. So you can use Underscore instead. Modifying .dat flat file would be a one of the solution in this case, because there would not be any need to keep the header in data file, only data can be kept in .dat file. But we need to create/modify the .tbl file manually, which involves some steps. HTH -- Regards, Pabitra Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Re: CRQ and INC work detail table.
Hi, This is out of the box functionality of Incident work info (detail form open when double click)and for change work info (detail form does not open when double click) For HPD:HelpDek , HPD:INC:DetailWorkLog_100_Dialg AL Opens Incident work Info form on Double click(On Return) of record in Work Detail table. For CHG:Infrastructure Change, CHG:CRQ:DetailWorkLog_100_Dialg AL does this job, but this AL is disabled by default (OOTB Functionality).

Re: User client issue
Hi, Issue might be with window size. Data is stored in the ar.ini (client machine) or in the User Preferences form. Solution might be renaming ar.ini or delete their user preference record. Next time they log into the user tool it will recreate user preferences using the default values. Secondly: If you are using 7.6.04 tools. You are supposed to use User tool for Administrative activities only. For other things such as accessing Incident, you should be using Mid Tier. If you are trying to access the application (IM, PM, CM etc..) then it might happen as you explained.

Re: AssetPeople
Hi, There can be number of situations: 1. If the Data is accidentally deleted from AST:AssetPeople Form, just check the forms BMC.CORE:BMC_BaseElement and BMC.CORE:BMC_Person_ and AST:AssetJoinASTPeople if related data can be retrieved . In case, the People-Asset details were already deployed, then we can get the deleted data (Not all information but the deployed records) from these forms. Otherwise you have to collect foundation data spreadsheet to upload it again. There is a spreadsheet (Transactional-Asset.xls) in the Data Management Tool that can be used to load Asset-People relationships if you are able to recover the data as mentioned above. 2. If you have migrated people and CI from other server to current server, yes you need to migrate data of this form also to retain relationships. AST:AssetPeople holds records for relationship between CI and people in Asset module. If you have any people-CI relationship, you should see records in this form. when you create relationship, record gets created in this form by workflow. HTH -- Regards, Pabitra, Ganesh Vyom Labs Pvt.

Re: Audit a Character Field
Hi, We can enable Audit Option for the respective character field and can track of the audit logs. if the Audit trial for the character field is to implement with custom approach using workflow, then we can have following approach: Step1: Create a Diary Field on the same form where character field exists. Step 2: Create a filter with a Run If as (TR.Character_Field != $NULL$ ) and Execution Option as (Submit, Modify and Merge) Step 3: Use a Set Fields action and set Diary field = Character_Field Now the Diary field will keep track of the changes to the Character field.

What we are experiencing is that all people can view all broadcasts from the SRM portal regardless if the View Access is Internal or Public. We have had a ticket open with BMC for a couple of weeks and got a response back that this is working as designed. They are saying 'Internal' will restrict view access to the company chosen for Broadcast. In our case, 'Company' is ACME Company. So, all folks 'internal' to ACME Company will be able to see the Broadcasts created for the company ACME Company. We are single tenancy and all our people are in ACME Company. Therefore the field View Access Internal and Public plays no role when creating a Broadcast. In addition we pointed out that the User Documentation does not explain it that way and we ended up creating an RFE for BMC to update the documentation. Support is very certain that this is working as designed. This seems incorrect to me. I just wanted to verify this functioanlity with the ARSList.

Re: 8961 error with Impact and Reported Source
Hi, This is what I found while navigating for below issue: The real problem seems to be the order of the elements in the input XML call. It seems that Remedy, or perhaps whatever mechanism they used to implement the web services, isn't happy if the input elements aren't in the same order as defined in the web service. It's ok if there are optional or defaulted elements left out of the call, but those that are present must be in the order as defined in the web service. I recently had an integration team with this exact scenario. The field reported as missing was passed, but still the error was thrown. I built a SoauUI call, and the operation worked fine. Turns out this is because I used the SoauUI function that automatically builds the input call from the web service definition, so all of the elements are in the same order. I then took the input xml reported by the integration team, and inserted it in place of the automatically generated xml in the SoauUI, and I got the same error reported by the integration team. I manually rearranged the elements to match the operation definition, and trying again, it was successful. Integration teams will not be happy that they have to make sure the elements are in the right order, and you'll need to avoid rearranging the element unless everyone is on board with the change. However, if you do make use the elements in the right order, this error will not occur. HTH -- Regards, Sunil Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Re: SRM - Issue with Draft Records (ARERR-150)
Hi, There can be a situation such as some customized macro is running while opening SR in draft mode which needs login info (Server name). While searching for resolution of this issue I got this work around. So please check that is this useful ? Regarding ARERR 150 - A server name must be supplied in the control record. The server field of the ARControlStruct parameter is empty. Supply the name of the server to reference in this field. Solution ARERR150 indicates that a server name reference that is required is missing. You may have recorded a macro and when recording it you had the prompt for log in turned on in the User Tool (In server info. -System - General - Server Information - Configuration tab ). Now when you run the macro it is looking for a server name and one is not supplied in the config file, or there was a config/utconfig file referenced, however that file is either no longer available or does not have a server name present. To solve this problem, you can either re-record the macro and include a login action, or with Prompt for login turned off log into the user tool to create a new config/utconfig file with appropriate information. The Prompt for Login option can also be constrained by a server setting which can be adjusted in Remedy Administrator. Make sure the server is configured to handle the Prompt for login situation By Preference -- then you will be able to properly configure the user tool. HTH -- Regards, Mayur Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Re: ARERR 300 Malloc failed on server
Hi, This happens because, there was a request to allocate memory by the server and the OS could not fulfill that request. In response to this, the AR System server shuts itself down and restarts. In general, except for users who are currently interacting with that server with a command, the restart would not even be noticed. Now, why is the server running out of memory? How much memory does the machine have? Could the system just be large enough that after everything is cached and user loads come in and there are large queries that need large spaces. Could it be a lack of swap space - so that there was no space on disc to write out the swap area of memory. Possible solution for this issue could be: Add /3gb parameter in a boot.ini file. The 32-bit versions of the Windows operating system can manage a maximum of 4GB of addressable memory. The 4GB is divided into 2GB for user applications and 2GB for kernel processes. This means that any given application is restricted to 2GB of memory. Adding /3GB switch which causes the operating system to divide the available 4GB of memory into 3GB for user applications and 1GB for kernel processes. Many translations that previously failed due to memory limitations will now run successfully when the /3GB switch is used. HTH -- Regards, Sunil Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Re: Error on Mid Tier
Hi Prakash, For the below error - One of the common reasons for this Error can occur if Java script try to retrieve the information before html info is fully loaded. This is why 'Unable to get value' message appears. This is a common error for some of the versions of the Internet Explorer. Below solution can resolve the issue: 1) Clear the browser cache (Browsing history / temporary internet files) 2) Clear out temp files under TEMP directory in your client machine.

This is the concern that came back from a security audit: Attachment are not being scanned at the server level and the application can only rely on the fact that the user may or may not use a scanning system (anti-virus for example). This does not prevent user to willingly add a malicious file. The files should be scanned to stop SVG files to be uploaded at the server level. I know I can have an API that would run on the server and would look at the tickets created and if there is an attachment, to extract it and scan it etc. But any one has a better idea?

Re: Change Management 7.0.3- CR stuck with Complete status.
Hi, Following may be the possibility due to which the Change Request is getting stuck in Complete Status: 1) Configuration for your company or Global in Approval Process Configuration Form such that below and which is enabled Begin Approved Rejected No Approvers - - - Pending 2) This rule must be getting triggered which keeps the Change Request stuck even after it's approved. 3) Now answer to your second question, you need to enable the Approval log from Approval Administration-Server Settings-Basic tab and find out which rules are being triggered and disable the configuration which is hampering your process flow. 4) One more important thing is that in the Approval Process Configuration Form in the Approval Process tab if System Approval Flag is set to Yes then the Approval Mapping for that particular phase is bypassed. So It may be the case that the System Approval Flag is set to Yes for 'Close Down Approval' phase and the Approval Mapping for that phase is not getting executed 5) Or else it could also be related to any pending task which is associated to the Change Request but for that we need more information as it below scenario does not mention anything about task so we would not get into it rather.

To use escalation pools, you must first configure multiple threads for the escalation queue. The Escalation Queue is assigned to RPC port number 390603 and you should increase the minimum and maximum thread values for the queue using the AR System Administration Console. Remember not to increase to too large a value that may impact on server performance. For example, if you have 3 threads for the escalation queue, you can modify your escalations to have a pool field value of 1, 2 or 3 on the General tab of the Escalation properties. All escalations in a particular pool run on the same thread, so the execution of escalations within a pool is serialized. Escalations run in the order of their firing times, but an escalation is delayed if an escalation from the same pool is currently running. If two or more escalations have dependencies and must not run at the same time, put them into the same pool to make sure they run in sequence. So please check if your newly created escalation is not conflicting with some other escalation in other queue. Apart from above, please check if your run if condition is correct and pass to lead the execution of said escalation. HTH -- Regards, Sunil Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Re: Timeout in Remedy - ARS 7.1
Hi, There can be multiple ways to troubleshoot it 1. Enable AeTrace logging, to determine what work it is performing when it stops. If it is processing an entry from the Application Pending form, you can export that entry to an ARX file, then delete it, and determine if it was just one record which was causing the problem AE-Trace: ON AE-Trace-File: /path/AeTrace.log AE-Log-File: /path/ae.log AE-Log: ON Note: These log quickly grow large which will impact AR Server performance 2. Check whether the Dispatcher process is running. The server process is named apsvcdsp, and should be run from armonitor. Enable the dispatch logging by adding a line to ar.cfg/ar.conf: Dispatch-Log-File: path/dispatch.log and run the Dispatcher manually. Also, there is one Known Assignment Engine Defect SW00318890 - Assignment Engine crashes if there are records in Application Pending that use an Inactive Process Workaround: Leave all out of the box ITSM 7.x Assignment Engine Processes as Active from Assignment Engine Administration. If you want to turn off automatic individual assignment, then use the Application Administration Console to configure the various applications to NOT use the Assignment Engine Integration (i.e. set it to No).

Re: Issue in AIE
Hi, Please check few points below which can be useful to resolve your issue. For issue 1: a) Just stop or deactivate other instances apart from the instance you have mapped with your data exchange b) Restart the instance (mapped with your data exchange) manually from the Services.msc c) Increase the Tread Size in the Advance Stetting of the data exchange d) Increase the Filter API Time Out in timeout tab of the server information e) Delete the exchange entry from the EIE:Exchange_Run which are in the state of Not Responding For issue 2: a) First, make sure that the AIE service for the designated instance is up and running with proper permission. The user running the service should have local admin privilege. If it's new setup, please check the installation log to see if there was no error with creating an instance. b) Also, if you installed AIE with server name as 'localhost' instead of actual server name, you may run into this issue.

When we update or created an entry, its values is automatically set to 'Not Normalized'. Please let us know if you are trying to map this field in 'Class Mapping' with value other than 'Not Normalized'.

Our problem is that we rely heavily on Tasks for infrastructure groups that are part of Change Requests yet approvals for those groups must be done manually. For example, the DBA team works almost exclusively through Tasks assigned to them from other groups so without any way of automatically adding approvals, their management are left off accidentally. My plan is to integrate Task Management with Approvals to resolve this. On the Change Management level, I have mappings set up to automatically add the supervisor of the Change Coordinator group as an Implementation approver. The goal is to extend that to Implementation Tasks as well. What I'm thinking is that when a Change Request goes to the Scheduled for Approval status, pull back the unique list of Assignee Groups for all Tasks with a status of Staged into a table, then run through that table and 1) pull in the Approval Mappings for Change Coordinator Group, and 2) create an approval request for each one that will be related to the CRQ. Has anyone done something like this before? Can you think of any drawbacks to this design or better ways to do it? I've already created a custom approval phase on Change Management for Tester approval and have it tied to a custom Change Tester field populated by the Change Coordinator so that part of the equation is very easy.

Re: ARERR 8939: Plugin Server not responding
Hi, You can check below things: -Verify from task-manager if arplugin.exe is running, if not restart ARPort mapper service. -If port mapper is not configured for assigning the port check if same port is being used by some another application -You may also check if the below entries for web service plug-ins are in ar.conf (ar.cfg) file. (arserver and port number must be same for each plugin) . Server-Plugin-Alias: ARSYS.ALRT.WEBSERVICE ARSYS.ALRT.WEBSERVICE ARServer:Port No . Server-Plugin-Alias: ARSYS.ARF.WEBSERVICE ARSYS.ARF.WEBSERVICE ARServer:Port No -Also there may be issue with pluginsvr_config.xml file. Check if above plug-ins are registered in pluginsvr_config.xml file with same port number which is configured in ar.conf file. -Check the libraries/jars are available in specified directory. -User should try with increasing 'Filter API RPC Time out' value and again check with the issue. -- Regards, ITSM Support Vyom Labs Pvt.

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 HTH -- Regards, ITSM Support Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

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: Web Service Errors
Hi, For authentication error thrown when authentication mode is set to None or Custom check following things : 1. Synchronize the AR Server connection password in mid-tier and User tool 2. It could be a number of things such as case sensitivity, additional characters (spaces, tabs, etc) 3. If this problem is associated with user having no password then you need to check configuration with respect to Cross Reference Blank Passwords and AREA configuration setup For ARERR [9130] Error encountered while executing a Web Service: 1.

Re: making use of itsm breadcrumbs with custom bolt on apps
Hi, This option works only for the forms opened using the application navigation panel and works only for the number of forms listed in a particular field of SHR:LendingConsole form To achieve the same for custom form, first prerequisite is that the custom application should be accessed from application list After that the name of the forms must be added in a particular field of SHR:LendingForm. To do this modify the active link SHR:LHP:Init, and go to second set field action. In this action change the value of z1D_PanelConfig field and add your form names (for which you want breadcrumbs) in a given specific format with a semicolon (;) as delimiter. Note: While giving the name in the z1D_PanelConfig, please take care of the values specified with the form. This is just solution to initiate the work on given problem. Hope this will help you to lead to the exact solution. -- Warm Regards, ITSM Support Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.

When this custom integrations are launch from ITSM form launch area (window open action) then it opens in existing window and you lose the breadcrumbs. One option is obviously to open in a new window, but then people don't like that either. It would be preferred to make use of the ITSM breadcrumbs. Has anyone done this - which workflow should we look at, can you piggyback onto this? Regards, Andrew C.

Re: Approval request
Hi, You can do following steps to create approval request: 1. Create one Custom approval request form 2. Created two join forms that will join your approval request (AP:Detail and AP:Detail-Signature) with these forms 3. Run the arjoinfix.exe to configure the join forms for the approval server 4. Register the approval request form in AP:Administration 5. Define the processes and rules (Prepare next Approver, Get Next Approver and Completion)) in AP:Administration 6. Add one Filter to the approval request form that will start the approval process with action as Run Process (Application-Command Approval New-Details -s “$SCHEMA$” -e “$Request-ID” -t “MyProcess”) Warm Regards, ITSM Support Vyom Labs Pvt.

I have never done this part. I am looking something like whenever some body selects a value from menu choice and click Ok button it should go for the approval request In our current environment when we submit a request its creating a record in SRM:Request form and approval request is creating for the user's manager(getting from people record). As soon as manager approved its changing status in SRM:Request form and flow is starting. I want to do something similar to this on a different form. I guess i have to attach my new form button action to this existing approval flow. Can you please help me how to configure this. we are using version 7.6.04. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are
