ITSM 5 status history q

ARSystem 7.1 / Itanium
HI All, Long'ish shot given how new 7.1 is.but: 1) Are you running ARSystem 7.1 on the Itanium platform (OS: HP 11i v2 or v3) through the ARIES emulator today? 2) If so, Is it your Production environment or not? How has it performed so far using bespoke app or (any) OOTB application? Do you do any benchmarking before the move? and what were the results (if your permitted to share) 3) If not currently on an Itanium platform, Does your organisation have plans to go to it in the short-term (6 mths)? Any comments in this space welcome. Thanks In Advance, Kevin ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:Where the Answers Are

Re: Attention people licensing 7.1 on a Linux server
Hey David- thanks for the follow-up. We don't have a defect ID. The tech we were on the phone with included a note he would be looking into the issue. Here is the work note he put in after our webex: Phone Call - Outbound to BOB MILLER Held a Webex with Bob Miller, Charles and Chris. Charles and Chris are the engineers while Bob is the project manager. Charles showed me the error he was getting whenever he applied the licenses using the User Tool. He told me that they were getting this error regardless of the license they tried to apply. Sudipta from the licensing support team had provided them a temporary license and even this one did not work. This was a new Red Hat Linux server, where they installed AR Server 7.1. I told Chris that I was able to successfully applied a license on a Redhat Linux, but I had used the Admin on 7.0.1 tool to do this. He said he had tried the Admin tool on 6.3 an dhad gotten the same error. He then quicly installed the 7.0.1 Admin tool and applied the license and sure enough it worked! He then went and applied the permanant non-expiring license and that also worked just fine. Interesting!! They were happy in getting the server license, there were a couple more questions and I told them I would provide them information on the following issues. 1. On the Admin licenses window (form), why does the format show 6.0? What does this mean? 2. Why doesn't the 7.1 User tool work for applying the license? I was going to try it and see if I got the same error. Get back to them with these answers. The issue number was ISS03180336. If you got it to work using the 7.1 user client then I suppose we still have an issue that could be specific to us, but with a work around of using the older admin tool.

Siraj, Make sure you have your development cache mode turned on before you kick your install. If I am not mistaken someone else had this issue where the files were seen but the installation reported errors similar to you, and it turned out to be that problem. If that isn't your problem, another potential issue could be permissions on these files.

Re: What's New 7.1?
BMC only creates customer training for each major release. The assumption is that if you know 7.0 then the content of the release notes and manuals for 7.1 should be sufficient to deal with the few changes. It isn't a major retooling of your knowledge. There is a PPT that covers what is new in AR System 7.1, CMDB 2.1 and Atrium Integration 7.1 which includes screen shots and such.

Re: ARSystem 7.1 / Itanium
Kevin, Not sure I can answer your questions. But following was the thought process we had when we were considering moving to Itanium platform with HP 11i v2 a few months back: - First, the support for this platform through an emulator, which in our opinion is not the best option from a performance perspective, especially in a production environment. - Second, the complete new architecture of the Itanium platform (and its idiosyncrasies) + the support model for HP-UX not being the first tier from an OS perspective by BMC-Remedy - Third, lack of skill set (being developed as I write this email) in our IT department for supporting applications in an Itanium environment. Hence our decision to move to split architecture with Linux Cluster on the back-end for the Oracle Database, Windows 2003 Server for Remedy Server and Linux servers with load balancer for our mid-tier.

RESOLVED: BMC Remedy Product Documentation Filenames
Thanks, Rick. I missed you guys, too. It's nice to see both familiar and new names on the list. Thank you, Mr. Easter: I downloaded the AR System Documentation 7.1 zip file you mentioned in your response. It does work. :) Thanks again, Michelle Rick Cook [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) arslist@ARSLIST.ORG 10/06/2007 12:10 AM Please respond to arslist@ARSLIST.ORG To arslist@ARSLIST.ORG cc Subject Re: BMC Remedy Product Documentation Filenames ** Michelle, glad to see you back on the list - I've missed you! Actually, if you're referring to recent patches like 7.0.1 p4, there was a documented bug on that very issue - a more recent version actually fixes the links and uses document names. Not sure if that takes care of the version you're trying to use, but at least BMC is aware of the problem.

I've noticed that for at least the past year that all of the product document PDFs have numbers for filenames. Although, I will always have a preference for the dark ages of books, I've adapted to the PDF format. In previous versions I liked the convenience of using the Master Index to search for a topic, click on the topic result, and auto-open the related product pdf on the exact page of the topic. This feature no longer works because all of the references in the Master Index are now invalid. Do you know if there are any plans to change the file name format to match the titles in the Master Index in the near future?

HD 6.0 - Open Search in Modify Window not Results List

Re: HD 6.0 - Open Search in Modify Window not Results List
Claire, there should be an open window command that you can tweak. The nice thing about them is that you can specify what type of window you want to open, and whether you want results, details, or both displayed. Turn on your AL logs, perform the action, and you should see which workflow you need to look at.

Re: BMC Support -- A note from BMC
Thanks for the update on support, Doug. It's nice to know you all are keeping a finger on the pulse of your ARS community - David Easter's presence on the list has been particularly beneficial to all. While we are on the topic of the SupportWeb, are we ever going to see the Remedy Knowledge Management product appear there as a supported product, i.e. with the latest patches (see ISS03150692) and technical bulletins/defect reports. Since every version of it released over the last several years has required large amounts of post-install cleanup, either of erroneous files, incorrect field lengths, or conflicting api files, etc., it is very hard to support when NONE of that is kept on the SupportWeb. The problems go way beyond the few customer advisories that have been sporadically posted over in the documentation section, and change significantly between releases. No patch has ever appeared in the Remedy Heritage Products download site, which is where I would expect them to be. The last patch support sent me in July they apparently should NOT have, and it is still partially installed on one of my environments. It just seems as if this product is treated like the red-headed stepchild of BMC, and that is unfortunate. Even the ITSM patches like to wipe out the hand-customization that it still requires to integrate it with Incident and Problem Management. The people in that unit are very knowledgeable, and have gone to great lengths in the past to walk me through all of the manual fixes required, but that information is not on supportweb, nor are their patches, nor is there any indication that the ITSM developers consider it an integrated application. If it is not on your list of support issues, please put it there.

Message not In catalog
On our production server only users are getting Message not in catalog: Message number 623. These are actually users who do not have access to Remedy. This happens in both the User tool and MidTier. I have checked all of the other servers and the appropriate text for a 623 is displayed. I also checked the arsystem.cat file on each server and all of them are the same size, time stamp and location. I tried searching the file for the error number but it appears to be a binary file. Any thoughts on to resolve why I am not getting the text of the message returned to the end users?

Capture HTML Source from a View Field
Listers, Has anyone tried to capture the contents of a View Field in Remedy? Ideally I would like to capture the HTML text/source without having to resort to an external process. Setting a character field to the view field only captures the URL. - Mark ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:Where the Answers Are
Re: Message not In catalog
arsystem.cat uses an approach to internationalization for message catalogs. Make sure that the locale on the server (LC_x env vars) for the user that runs arserverd matches the location of the arsystem.cat file.

Re: Message not In catalog
Check the permissions to the cat file. The user that is used to start the AR System services must have permissions to read this file.

OT-BMC's new product line, acquisition to complement business strategy
Oct. 8, 2007, 1:14PM BMC's new product line, acquisition to complement business strategy By BRAD HEM Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle Houston-based BMC Software announced a new product line and acquisition today aimed at complementing the company's strategy of making information technology operations more efficient. Company IT departments spend more than 70 percent of their time maintaining their technology infrastructure as opposed to finding ways for technology to improve how it does business, according to a Forrester Research survey. The launch of BMC's service automation and the acquisition of Emprisa Networks will keep the company at the top of an increasingly competitive software niche, said Forrester Research senior analyst Evelyn Hubbert. BMC did not release terms of the Emprisa acquisition. The real goal here is to reduce that part of the IT budget that gets spent just keeping the lights on, said Herb VanHook, BMC's vice president of corporate strategy. The service automation launch is in part the result of BMC's July acquisition of software automation company RealOps. http://chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headline/biz/5196762.html Click on the link to read the reader comments!

Remedy Knowledge Management (RKM) 7.1 image/attachment issue
List, I'm really perplexed on this one. First, some background information: On our production web server, users reported that they could not attach (embed) images into new RKM KB articles nor could they view any images attached to existing articles. This seemed to happen all of the sudden. The production web server is currently: Windows 2003 Server Standard IIS6/ServletExec5 MidTier 7.0.1 patch 001 RKM 7.1 build 1098 I recall testing this capability prior to putting it online and know for a fact that this feature worked at one time. What's strange is that if using the RKM standalone interface (or via the MidTier) from the server itself, this issue doesn't occur. Fast-forward to now: We were planning on upgrading the production server to MidTier 7.1 under Tomcat standalone for performance reasons, possibly rendering the subject of this e-mail moot. I stood up a new web server on a virtual machine as follows: Windows 2003 Server Standard MidTier 7.1 under Tomcat Standalone RKM 7.1 build 1098 (with the assistance of Carrie R. @ BMC) Life was good. The image/attachments issue did not manifest itself at all (from the server or other client desktops). Then, I upgraded our baseline development web server on our DMZ drop to match the environment under the virtual machine (and only proceeded to test things locally from the server without issue). Last, I build a new server (physical box) which is very similar to the baseline and virtual servers which would be shipped to the client site to replace the existing production server. Upon running this new one through the ringer, I noticed the image/attachment issue rear itself when testing from a client machine on the network. Unfortunately, the server had to be shipped to meet a deadline before I could resolve the issue. So I still have our DMZ (which also experiences this issue) for testing locally. I've got a critical support ticket opened with BMC on this, but it appears they took today (Columbus day) off as I haven't seen an update to the ticket all day. Their response last week was to try yet another RKM WAR file (which I did), but it didn't resolve the issue. From what I can tell, it appears to be a problem authenticating the user inside the Attachment Servlet (tomcat\webapps\rkm\attachfile.jsp or insertimage.jsp). Both files have the following code at the top of the file: % String strISOLocaleCode = GlobalUtils.getInitializedLanguage(request); ConfigLoader sysConfig = HomeFinder.getConfigLoader(); Authenticator authenticator = sysConfig.getAuthenticator(); if (!authenticator.isUserAuthenticated(request, response) || !authenticator.hasAccessGroup()) authenticator.denyAccess(request, response); % I suspect that the if statement always evaluates to true as I've seen the all-too-familiar RKM Access Denied screen briefly appear in the upload status indicator before. However, RKM is able to authenticate users as it allows them to log in, author documents, search, view, etc. Anyone else have an issue similar to this? Any ideas? I've stared and compared the working virtual server and problem physical server and can find no glaring differences to explain it.
