Can you elaborate more on how I can extract the attachments and transfer it to

Re: BMC Remedy Attachments

2015-03-10 Thread Grooms, Frederick W
Attachments are compressed using a proprietary algorithm of BMC.  There are 
posts in the BMC Communities https://communities.bmc.com/welcome of people 
who say they have de-compressed them without using the AR System, but I have 
not tried them.

You can use tools like the User tool to export them

Re: Need info about private queue

2015-03-10 Thread LJ LongWing
Amit,
That's the problem with this particular solution...if your Remedy servers
are using a load balancer then you can either configure the 'main' name to
use this RPC, but that makes ALL of your traffic go to through this new
RPC, not just the Web Service trafficso, that's why I would actually
recommend standing up a separate standalone Mid-Tier specific to this
function that goes through this RPCthat way your standard traffic would
not be impacted, and your users would not be affected.

 Hello LJ,

 Is it like i have to configure AR server RPC value on mid tier config page
 under AR server setting section? One more thing i would like the share here
 is we have configured production application LB name here in AR server
 setting so is it going to work ?

 I am mainly confused about actual configuration of this change.

 Amit,
 When a .NET application is consuming a Remedy web service, it is
 published through Mid-Tier server.  Mid-Tier has ability to specify a
 specific RPC Port to communicate onso, the answer to your question is
 Yeseither configure your Mid-Tier to use the specific RPC Port you
 want, or you could even stand up a 'special' Mid-Tier just for Web
 Services, and utilize this Mid-Tier to specify the RPC Port in question...

 Either way, yes, you can do exactly what you are looking for.

Re: BMC Remedy Attachments

2015-03-10 Thread Ben Chernys
Hi Allen,

 

Meta-Update uses the API to do the extracts to the file system.  To insert into 
the database you can issue a process call or direct SQL statement (through the 
ARADMIN user) within the Meta-Update script (one line).  You can then delete 
the extracted file (one line).

 

All in all it would be a 10 line script counting comments J

 

ARS has additional attributes related to attachments such as original file 
name.  These can be manipulated with Meta-Update in an automated was (such as 
getting rid of path info or changing file names).  Attachments can also be 
transferred to other fields and forms through a reference not involving an 
extract to the file system.

 

Meta-Update will not require any server changes at all and can be run on the 
server or on a workstation.  Installation is a simple unzip.  Available for 
Intel (Windows, Linux) and Sparc (Sun).

 

Trials are free and only restricted by date (generally 30 days).

 

Some quotes:

“I love Meta Update and still believe every large Remedy implementation team 
must have it in their kitty.”

– Consultant from Oz 

-   

–  Customer’s technical manager

“I recommend Meta-Update for all those who want the flexibility of a scripting 
language to handle bulk ARS data.

Re: SRM Surveys Multi-Tenancy

2015-03-10 Thread Jayesh
Hi,

This is OOTB as it uses a hard coded SRD for each fulfillment application.

You have to customize in such a way, it can pick up the different internal SRD 
based on the tenant under which incident is created and then in turn SRD can 
have tenant specific surveys n questions.

Others might have different apporach than mine. Would like to hear from them

You can raise this as an idea also in communities as many customers like you 
are requesting this.

inability to use separate Survey Questions by Company in our Multi-Tenancy 
environment. 

I know that singularly, a Survey can be attached to a SRD but only our customer 
users submit a request from the Request Entry Console using SRDs.  All other 
Incidents are submitted by analyst using the Incident form. The Service Desk 
Incident, which allows every Incident to create a Service Request, allows for 
only a single -Global- Survey to be selected. 

Does anyone know if it is possible to setup a Service Desk Incident by Company 
so that Survey control belongs to each Company? Your assistance is greatly 
appreciated.

Has anybody else run into this?  Apparently in 8.1 BMC removed the Company 
field from the foundation data spreadsheets.  They say



“The Data Management loads are single tenant. The Company is driven from the 
Data Management job. All of the data that is loaded by the Data Management job 
is associated with the company that you selected when you created the Data 
Management job. This means that you must create a separate spreadsheet for each 
company. In addition, you must create a separate Data Management job for each 
company spreadsheet.  This is a design decision taken by Product Development 
based upon a few security concerns.  With 8.1, a security vulnerability was 
closed by removing the direct ability to allow update to companies other than 
the one in which the user running UDM resides. This was deliberate. This 
prevents the risk that a user may insert/modify records in companies to which 
they should have no access to”.



That’s great if you are single tenant but for those of us who are VERY 
multi-tenant (thousands of companies) it’s a problem.  I don’t want to have to 
load this data 3000 times so any suggestions are appreciated ;)
