Randeep, we don’t like the out of the box email templates so we’ve build our own app. In that Workflow I loop through a table field to replace variables of a template with the ticket data. Overwriting the filter phases means I don’t have access to the Request ID when I need to send the

Randeep, It seems that you have never worked in an environment where HPOV or other monitoring applications flood a server with events within a short period of time that generate hundreds/thousands of records in a short period of time. Dave On Thu, Oct 12, 2017 at 10:11 PM Randeep Atwal

Rick, everything that generates NextID's must come through an ARSystem server so I don't know what you mean when you say 'If you have multiple outside entities creating large number of records at once' All requests go through the AR Server. I would theorize that you may have other factors in

Abhijeet, my results were repeated and conclusive. Here is the only logical explanation for my findings that makes sense: There is a time cost to the DB call for Entry IDs. The cost increases incrementally the more that are requested at once. The thought is that 100 individual requests will

Rick, I do not think that is accurate. Logically, if the block size is 100 then the server will access the DB once to retrieve the next block id every 100 records. If it is 1, then the server goes to the DB for every record. Later cannot be faster. Further, to answer the original question,

Actually I had a case where we needed Next ID > 1 due to DB performance. It wasn’t on the primary form, it was on a child form (something like the Worklog in ITSM where every action to a ticket is recorded). The database was being blocked on the update of the Arschema record for that form.

Tim, I think he is looking not for the next one that the DB has, but the one that's already been allocated to the AR server and would be the next Entry ID for the next record actually created. In the current scenario, anywhere between 1 and 99 Entry IDs would have already been fetched from the DB

Thanks Rick! I actually don’t care whether they reserve the block or not as long as they allow us to access the info what the next Id is. It could be a special workflow action or at least an API call. I really don’t get why is that so difficult to provide? > On 12. Oct 2017, at 22:42, Rick

Here's the skinny on that. I got this from the engineer who built that feature, btw. The problem was that system performance was being constricted around the action of getting the NextId for a record when multiple sources (say, Netcool and HPOV) were throwing tons of requests at the (Incident)

i.e. there is no hack to find out the nextID before it actually gets submitted? Apart from that, I really don’t understand why BMC makes such a fuss around the nextID. Why can’t they just provide a special command GET-NEXTID? Thomas > On Oct 12, 2017, at 10:26 PM, LJ LongWing
