Re: iSphere and RSE Extensions

I'm still a green message user, but one of my coworkers got excited when he
saw iSphere said something about messages. He was hoping to view messages
about batch jobs completing, so he would appreciate this, if I understand
what you're suggesting. This isn't useful for compiles, because there is
an adequate event file system to report compile errors, but he is
interested when we run a promotion in our change management software (MKS
Implementer). To track the results of this promotion, you need to review
messages to make sure everything went as planned.

If there are enough people out there who are using the Messages Subsystem
of the RSE Extension Plugin and we decide to adopt this to iSphere then of
course we can enrich the Messages Subsystem with new features like clearing
a message queue.

I use it...in fact, that's pretty much the only thing I use the softlanding
plugin for.

Specifically, I use the message queue monitoring so I get pop-up messages
when batch jobs complete.

If you add it, I hope you can figure out how to have your message subsystem
be able to clear a message queue with the monitoring turned on. RSE can't.

I second Brian's proposal. I use the messaging subsystem AND iSphere
every day, so it would indeed be a great step forward if it could be
incorporated into one single plugin.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] iSphere and RSE Extensions

In an earlier post, Matt said:

“FYI, ever since I went to 9.0 and 9.1 I had been having issues getting
the Softlanding Spooled File plugin to work (open the item in the text
editor) but your tool has always worked for me in that regard, so now I
am
exclusively an iSphere user and fan. It looks like Softlanding is not
maintaining their product but your are. Plus I prefer the install and
update interface for iSphere than Softlanding's.”

I have to concur with Matt, Frank and the rest of the team at Task Force
IT are doing a fantastic job with the, (free!!) iSphere tools. Looking
down
the list of Ideas for Improvement:

http://sourceforge.net/p/isphere/wiki/IdeasForImprovments/

suggests there are more goodies on the way. With iSphere likely to
incorporate a Data Area editor, the ONLY thing that Softlanding’s RSE
Exrtensions has which still makes it useful is the Messages Subsystem.

I may be speaking out of turn here, but if the RSE Extensions are not
being maintained and enhanced, would it be possible for iSphere to adopt
the Messages Subsystem of RSE Extensions? Would there be a demand for
this
within the RDi community?

(I would certainly appreciate a simpler and more consistent install
process that a single plug-in would provide. It does become slightly
irritating having to complete multiple software installs, following
different procedures for different tools.)

Brian.
