Typically some hosts from a resource pool can be in maintenance mode. In such situations customers can't wait till these hosts are out from the maintenance mode, neither can they stop new SRs ... However TSAM's bluecloud reservation is not aware that some hosts need to be skipped when trying to fit reservations.

In such cases, SRs will continue to fail for sitting on those hosts. Inorder to indicate to Bluecloud that a particular host must be skipped, set the "ignored-by-resource-broker" property to "true" for that host. This can be set from Maximo UI. Goto -> Service Automation -> Cloud Server Pool Administration. Select the required pool. From the Resource Pool Configuration tab, Goto the Resource Pool. Here you will be able to see the hosts included in this pool. For ever host to be ignored, check the "Is Failed" flag.

Why TSAM continues to select host for resource allocation requests even when the host is in maintaince mode ?

Error when attempting to create new report from
Go To => Administration => Reporting => Report Administration => Create Report button (extreme right button)
Nothing happens when you click it ...
OR
A popup opens and when you choose any of the fields (as maxadmin user) it generates the error:



"BMXAA4214E  Unknown error occur.  Please contact your system administrator for assistance"

Solution:
Backup the original Library.xml
1. Go To => System Configuration => Platform Configuration =>  Application Designer
2. In the dropdown box select 'Export System XML'
3. Select the LIBRARY from System Presentations ( it's the library.xml we need to keep as backup, just in case the provided fix doesn't work )
4. On the right hand side you'll see an arrow, click on it to download  this file. A new window will open up. Wait for it to finish generating/opening and then from File->Save As, go ahead and save this file as  Backup_LIBRARY.xml.

Create another copy of Backup_LIBRARY.xml and edit it:
Search for the string: psdi.webclient.beans.report.CreateReportBean
this will be in a dailog tag, now in this XML tag look for id="createreport"
if found, change it to id="CREATEREPT"

Also add the below line:
listeners="selected_field_table,available_field_table"

Final dialog tag should look like:
<dialog beanclass="psdi.webclient.beans.report.CreateReportBean" id="CREATEREPT" label="Query Based Report" mboname="USERREPORT" positionattop="true" listeners="selected_field_table,available_field_table">

now search for string: beanclass="psdi.webclient.beans.report.ReportAttributesAvailableBean"
this will be in a table tag, now in this XML tag look for id="available_fields_table"
if found change it to id="available_field_table"

now search for string: beanclass="psdi.webclient.beans.report.ReportAttributesSelectedBean"
this will be in a table tag, now in this XML tag look for id="selected_fields_table"
if found change it to id="selected_field_table"

Save this file as: Modified_LIBRARY.xml

Apply the modified Library:
1. Go To => System Configuration => Platform Configuration => Application Designer
2. Click on the 'Import Application Definition' icon in the top toolbar.
3. In the popup, browse for the modified library (Modified_LIBRARY.xml) and click OK.
4. Wait for the import to finish. It may take upto 2-3 mins.
5. Now Go to => Administration => Reporting => Report Administration =>  'Create New Report' button and try the scenario to create a Query Based Report.

BMXAA4214E Unknown error occured while creating Query Based Reports (QBR)

 TSAM 7.2.4.3 is now available with some new features mentioned below:

1. Multi-customer user: 
Users (in all Cloud Roles) with Cloud Customer Level Policy permissions will be able to register with multiple customers. The current limitation of single customer membership can be attributed to the desire to cater for Service Providers, but represents a major limitation for Enterprises implementing a Private Cloud. This feature meets the demand of several organizations wanting to implement Private Cloud.

2. Enhancement to the Out of Band Resource Allocation for System P: 
Now has an additional resource check at the time of provisioning to  allow for selection of an alternate host platform.

3. VMWare Disk management independent of mount point: 
Additional disk can now be managed independent of mount points and a new mandatory parameter disk name is used for the user to identify the disk.

4. IBM System Director VMControl TSAM Extension: 
Now available as part of TSAM Core and provides Additional Disk and Live Partition Mobility for Virtual Servers provisioned using IBM System Director VMControl Offering.

5. Serviceability Requests:
