I have to say that my recent experiences with the resolution team (3rd level I believe) at BMC have been great. They are difficult to get an audience with, but when you have their attention, they don't waste any time getting to the source of the problem and correcting it. This group has access t

Just to get my 10 cents in on this one. I'm not a RAC or RPC, however, my knowledge of the ARS allows me to operate and develop an extensive custom ARS enviroment with very little technical support. I've been working with ARS for about 7 years in an isolated network environment as the Seni
