Routing Requests to the correct Categorizations without using the summaries from teh Requestor Console.

2008-05-20 Thread jmchugh
ITSM 7.0.3 patch 7
Remedy ARS Server 7.1 patch 2
MS SQL Server 2005
Windows 2003

Hi,

When using the Requestor Console and submitting ticket I would like to
be able to Categorise and Assign to a particular goup the resultant
incident. This I would like to achieve by not using the summaries drop
down.

Has anyone achieved this and if so how did you go about doing this?

I was thinking of one drop down list of all the deparments. I am not
sure how to proceed from here though.

Thanks
John

ITSM 7 incidents public work info not seen by requestors.

2008-03-20 Thread jmchugh
Hi All,

ITSM 7.03 Patch 7
Windows 2003 Patch 2
MS SQL Server 2005
ARS Server 7.1 Patch 2

If Incident Managemnet Users update the work info and tag the entry as
Public, the requester who submitted the issue from the Requestor
console does not get to see this.

Is this as designed?

How should this work?

Is this only one way? From a Requestor only as this seems to work
fine.

Thanks
John

ITSM7 Patch 7 - Work Info Updates from Incident for Requestor Console do not appear.

2008-03-19 Thread jmchugh
Hi All,

ITSM 7.03 Patch 7
Windows 2003 Patch 2
MS SQL Server 2005
ARS Server 7.1 Patch 2

I have a current issue open with Remedy which has been bugged by
another client of theirs SW00286432.

The issue occurs when an Incident Management User updates the Work
Info, on a ticket that a requestor has created, so that the Requester
can view the information. Sets the view access to Public. This should
allow the Requestor to view the Work Info update. This does not occur.
I can recreate this issue on two servers one has ITSM 7.03 patch 6 and
the other has ITSM 7.0.3 patch 7.

Has anyone seen this type of issue? if so Have you found a workaround?

Do you have this working on your Remedy ITSM 7 patch 6 or 7 version or
even lower patched versions?

This seems to me to be a fundamental part of the application which is
not functioning any advice is appricated.

Thanks again.
John

WorkLog not updating from Requester Console.

2008-02-05 Thread jmchugh
We are on ITSM 7.0.2 patch 6 the Server in Windows 2003
MS SQL Server 2005.
ARS Server 7.1 patch 1

The problem occurs both when using the Requester console and Incident
Management Console.

When Updating or Creating a Request Ticket the Incident does not get
updated withteh worklog entry and an event message occurs.

SRM_OUT_UPDATE_APP_REQUEST_WORKLOG this event is running with a status
of In Progress and nothing happens. There is nothing in the log file
to suggest any issues.

Have you seen this before?

Do you know why this can occur?

I have looked at KM-00024637 but this has not resolve dthe
problem.

Thanks

Pros and Cons of using different replication methods for failover/disaster recovery

2008-01-25 Thread jmchugh
Hi All,

Environment:
ARS 7.0.x
Windows 2003
ITSM 7.0.x
Mid-Tier 7.0.x
All on the same server.

On an MS SQL Server 2000 or 2005, what are the pros and cons of using
the following Replication methods for failover/disaster recover

o   Log Shipping

o   Snapshot Replication - may not cope with full recovery because
it's a 'snapshot' in time, but 

o   Transactional Replication - is this too hard on the servers/
network?

o   Merge Replication -  this requires primary keys and Remedy doesn't
have any  Is this a correct assumption?



Any help is appreciated ...

Thanks
John

running a data transfer in eie causes an active link error 1603.

2008-01-16 Thread jmchugh
Hi All,

I am configuring an integration between Configuration Management 7.0.3
and CMDB 2.0.1 patch 4, The CM database is oracle 9i release 2 on HPUX
11i. The CMS server is on a windows 2003 server. The Master Tuner is
on a Windows 2003 server. ARS Server 7.0.1 patch 5 - HPUX 11i

I have completed the integration component CMDB integration 7.1.
When I go to run the Pull_ARS_INV_APPLICATION I get the following
error message:

Set fields active link running a process failed
EIE Service wakeup port not set in EIE:BackupLoadFlag form (ARERR
1603)

The preceding message occurred during the execution of active link
EIE:ST-RunNowOpenConfirmWindow01 -- action 2. (ARNOTE 1101)

Does any one know how to set the Wakeup Port, I have set this in the
eie.cfg file to be the default value.
Should this be imported in the the form above when you restart teh
service?

Have you seen this error before?

Do you know of a solution?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Apache 5.028 webserver and jsp engine

Having performed an upgrade to version 7.0.1 patch 3, Mid-Tier version
7.0.1 patch 2, we found that we obtained the following error message
ARERR 9350 - Network Protocol/data error when performing a data
operation. upon entering the screen on the web console via Mid-Tier.

There are two set field actions that are fired when you enter the Web
console screen 1 retrieves information from the TT:People Information
form the other sets a field used by the EXTERNAL function within a
table field.

This problem occurs for all users in a different location only we have
a development server on the same version and this works to the same
location. This all worked prior to the upgrade.

I have narrowed down the problem to the two Active Links by disabling
the workflow and trying the two Active Links individually both fail.
I have replaced the Active Links added the entries in again this
fails.

From the log files I found the following error:

Sep 2, 2007 6:33:57 AM com.remedy.arsys.log.Log log
SEVERE: GoatException during NDXRequest:
ARERR [9215] Internal error.

Does the line at
com.remedy.arsys.backchannel.NDXCompileExternalQualification.mapProperties(Unknown
Source)
refer to the EXTERNAL qualification or is this the method in which the
information is being retrieved?


Internal error.

This all-purpose error occurs during numerous internal system
failures, including the following conditions:
 Name of a system object or field ID is NULL when the system tries to
retrieve a system object
 Internal cache error
 Web tier exception
 XSL stylesheet not found for certain type of object
 Failure to create request in Push Field workflow action at runtime
 Failure to set a field in the Set Field workflow action at runtime
 Failure to expand an open window

From the definition of the error above I have tested the set field
actions.

Have you seen this type of issue before?

Thanks again
John
