How To
Remedy Administration
Associate Incident Templates with Task/Task Group Templates Using Run Process Create Form
** Note: The Run Process Create form uses the system GUID field 179 as a unique identifier, which is created
when the record is first saved.
For this reason, new records need to be saved once with just the Incident Template identified but no task
templates for the GUID is created. After the first save, task or task group templates can be associated.

The Remedy macros all use an account named Run Process, password runprocess, to log in to
Remedy and create the Incident records.

How To
Remedy Administration
Syntax of Run as entry is: <Domain>\<region specific account>
Three domain accounts have been set up, one in each region, for the purpose of running BMC Remedy
scheduled tasks, such as definition exports and the Run Process jobs. They are:
NAMERICA\sa-nabmcadmin
ASIA\sa-asbmcadmin
EUROPE\sa-eubmcadmin
Password: Maryv1ll3
Password: asia_help2007
Password: Maryv1ll3
Use the Schedule tab to set the frequency with which the job is run. After the scheduled task has been
created, rename it to have the same name as the template it is using.

Server Reboots
As of November 7, Server reboot for ghos2118 and ghos2119 as an initial troubleshooting during an event of
application unavailability, we need to to secure approval from on-call Engineer however an email would still
need to be sent that a reboot has been initiated.
Errors
Issue : Cannot establish a network connection to the AR System server : ghos2118 (0) : RPC Program not
