Remedy 8.1 and MAPI support

2015-02-02 Thread Pierson, Shawn
Good morning,

We're looking to upgrade out version of Microsoft Office internally, as well as 
Exchange, and there is being a lot of pressure to get our Remedy server 
upgraded from using Outlook 2007 for MAPI inbound email.  I've tried looking 
all over BMC's site, their compatibility matrix doesn't list any email clients 
that it would be compatible with, the release notes reference MAPI but not what 
version of Outlook is supported, and even a Google search hasn't returned 
anything useful as far as I can see.

Does anyone know where BMC documents what versions of Outlook are compatible 
with ARS 8.1?

Also, this is something I should probably ask for the 9.0 beta program but will 
they ever find a better way to do inbound email than putting Outlook on my 
application server?  Our Exchange system seems to go down all the time in such 
a way that Remedy can't reconnect easily (one of the drivers for wanting to 
upgrade) so I'd like to look at other options.  We use SMTP for outgoing email 
and I can't recall the last time it had a problem.

Thanks,

Shawn Pierson

Shawn,

I know this does not answer your question but you should also find out what 
version of Exchange you are using.

We are using Exchange 2013 and something to keep in mind is there is a newer 
MAPI protocol and a legacy protocol and the 2013 version of Exchange only 
supports the new version while the Remedy MAPI protocol uses the old version. 
This led us to setting up our own hMail server on our Mid Tier and having our 
Exchange people forward mail over to it and then connecting via POP to pull in 
mail.

You could use the standards of POP3 or IMAP for inbound email

This is one of the advantages I have being on Linux.. MAPI is a MS Windows only

You and Frederick bring up a good point, and actually I've been investigating 
and we're now allowed to use POP and IMAP against our mail server where in the

Hello ARSList, I have a question for you.

Some of you know me personally, others just through the list.  My passions lie 
in the extending of Remedy through API programmingI'm looking for a topic 
for this years Engage and I wanted to take some suggestions from users to see 
what topics I might be able to develop and present.  The call for papers just 
came out today

https://communities.bmc.com/community/engage/blog/2015/01/29/bmc-engage-2015--call-for-papers-window-now-open

and I would like to submit a topic this year that is other than my own 
designthoughts?

We were in the same boat.  We had been using Outlook 2007 to use MAPI on
our 8.1 servers.  When it came time to build a new 8.1 server I was
determined to break the Outlook chains.  POP and IMAP are also not allowed
in our environment.  Just like Levi we setup an hMail server for our
incoming email and it has been working great!  The Email Engine has been
more reliable since moving away from using Outlook.

Re: Remedy 8.1 and MAPI support

2015-02-02 Thread Pierson, Shawn
I’ve been testing IMAP since around the time of my first email and it’s working 
great.  I even uninstalled Outlook completely from my server to make sure I’m 
not accidentally referencing it somehow.  It took me all of five seconds to 
configure IMAP and disable the MAPI mailbox, and I’m looking forward to the 
next Exchange patch and reboot schedule to see if that helps with some issues 
we’ve had.

I hope to see two benefits from going to IMAP:

1)  No Outlook, with its dozens of patches to make it work within my 
company’s environment and no worry about upgrades.

2)  Improved connectivity, since I shouldn’t have the email engine 
disconnect and be unable to reconnect to Exchange without restarting the 
process.

Thanks,

2015-02-02 Thread Vidyasagar Kommu
Hi All,

We have a requirement for A form when ever this form is submitted then we
need to push the data to Form B in this requirement we have written on
Submit and modify mode on form A to create a new record in form B given a
filter execution order is 1000 currently it is working fine  in this filter
we have mapped around 178 fields to push the data to form B .
Few cases the field values are pushing to  previous values(Updating ) on
form B .

Currently we are thinking creating a new request with the all mandatory
fields for form B fields separating the workflows with the execution
order 1000,non mandatory fields which are left from 178 fields planning to
create new workflows for each field so around 155 workflows need to create
and these workflow if no request match take no action if any request match
modify first match request with the execution orders will be the same 1000.

If I Implement like this way is there any performance issues will occurred?
Do you have any solution kindly let me know .



Thanks
Sagar
