Hi Listers -
Looking at the skinnied-down CDM, how would you track the following:
Server w/ two network cards that each have two specific IP addresses (for
failover, for example) associated with them.
Server goes into ComputerSystem class, no problem.
From there, I could:

Hi Carey -
Thanks for the information, I appreciate your response - I'd done a search,
but hadn't originally come up with anything specifically relevant.
I tried what you suggested, and couldn't get it to quite work - but based
on your input, played around with it a little after using a hex

Got it! I actually had posted something this a.m. about it, b/c your post
did lead me to what I needed to do - it seems that some of my posts make it
and others don't, not sure what that's all about.
Thanks for taking the time to spell it out - it is much appreciated!
Best regards!

Thanks very much for the response, I appreciate your repeating this

Hi All -
Is there any way to parse the contents of a char field that is set to
multiple rows, and has data that looks like this:
John Doe

Anywhere, Anystate
Where there is a carriage return delimeter? I notice in the dbase, spaces
and carriage returns are saved as spaces -
Hi Listers -
Is anyone storing RAID information (RAID level, adapter, bios, etc.) in the
CMDB? If so, what class did you use for this?
Just trying to get some ideas
Thanks,

Yup, if you want to stick with the out-of-the-box DSL, Chris is right -
you'll be stuck with the
Software - Application - Third Party - Product Name
categories - my question is - what good does this do for reporting
purposes? If almost everything sits in that one CTI (I think there is one
Hi Listers -
Happy Holidays!
I have a basic question regarding self join forms (I'm specifically looking
at AST: forms from the Asset 7.0 app). For example - AST:ComputerSystem is
a join of BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem to another
BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem.
What's the purpose of this? If

Thanks for the reply, and chuckle I wouldn't be surprised if it were
something as stupid as versions that we missed /chuckle, although in this
case we've updated all of our tools to the newest release/patch as per
support's instructions. I will, however, double check that, just in

Do you mean the HTML docs that all link together so you can traverse the
CDM? If so, you can (and probably should) modify the HTML docs to add any
extensions. I actually found this little blurb in the CMDB2.0 Concepts and

We're running Asset 7.0 and not having any issues with these classes (out

Hello Listers -
In IM, as far as I can tell, Product Categorization comes from the Product
Catalog, and the Product Catalog is loaded with software that is created
when you load the DSL.
DSL Software Products are all categorized as Software/Application/Third
Party or Software/Operating
Hi Kelly -
Thanks.
EIE.cfg was actually set to 5 minutes before I started having these
issues. Set it to 1 to see if I could get something more kicked off, and
backed it out to 200 to see if things would catch up. Starting and
stopping the service did nothing. Only thing that enabled
Hi Michael -
No solution for you, but we will likely do something similar. We've done
some editing of the DSL behind the scenes, using the forms you've already
mentioned, and have not seen issues. We'll likely build our own
maintenance form(s) as well for any future DSL updates.

Silly question - but when you say relate contract to an item in the product
catalog - do you mean relate a contract to an asset (CI)? If so, what type
of asset and what type of contract?

We'll be in the same boat as well. After a first pass look at where to put
things, we're thinking of creating either a subclass under
BMC_HardwareSystemComponent, or a cat. subclass under Media for the SAN
devices themselvesremains to be seen what our folks need to track about
them though
Derek,
In addition to what Murtuza has said, you'll also need to set up your
product catalog with the products set up in the same classes that you are
importing into (i.e. BMC_ComputerSystem) before you populate the CMDB. If
you don't - you'll get menu pattern matching errors.
Good luck!
Hello all,
Is there any particular document that summarizes the permissions
(application permissions, etc.) in ITSM 7.0 - rather than having to slog
through all the user manuals where it says something like to do this you
have to be an Asset Manager?

Hi Lisa -
Can you tell me how you are able to update through an import? In reading
this post, I'm interested in trying to figure out what you're doing b/c we
have a number of instances where an update through a straight import would
come in handy.
Or - are you importing a file and handling

Well whaddya know! I'm glad I asked - b/c I didn't even notice that
option! I was under the impression that you couldn't key on any data for
an update, so this is great news.

No problem, glad you could make sense of my ramblings :) It's just so nice
to know that we're not alone in our gee, we really want to figure this

In terms of the DVD drives - IMO your requirements and setup should help
you determine which of the options (lump in CDROM

I'm posting this to Remedy support as well, but does anyone understand why
