ARS Patching Question

2015-04-20 Thread Hynes, Douglas
All, Anyone ever come up with an idea for in-place ARS upgrades/patching? Something like using dual server groups so the system never has to go down during maintenance? (if that's even possible) I'm trying to come up with a way to decrease needed downtimes to handle the patch/upgrade load.

Re: Listing of Forms - ITSM 8.X

2014-10-09 Thread Hynes, Douglas
Doug, I can't get you a full list but you can get a good idea if you use the Developer tool. If you drop down the Applications list on your server in the Dev Tool and locate one of the ITSM modules you can 2 x click on it and get a list of the forms, escalations, etc from that. It's not 100%
