There is a script I beleive in the contrib directory that allows you to
import data from rt1 to rt2. I believe that is what you're looking
for. Read the docs for it, as I believe it doesn't get a few things.

First; this should go to rt-users, not rt-devel.

Why not go to the search menu, search for the tickets in question (I am
assuming they have a common element, like subject, or email address, or
something), select 'Update all these tickets at once', if there are some
tickets you don't want to update, unselect the 'Update' box, then change
the status to 'Dead'.

|+ I am really new to the system and need if possible the SQL command to get rid of
|+ this access tracker issues. I also would like to know how to backup and remove
|+ older years of tracker issues.

Its not really adviced to delete older tickets. Thats one of the
features of a database, store all your information, have it available to
you at anytime via a search. Would suck if you needed a ticket from 3
years ago, and you had deleted it from teh system. You'd have to then
put the old information up somewhere where its accessable.

We had a mailer loop caused by a misconfiguration that once created
500 or so tickets. What I did was do a search on the some matching
criteria, clicked on "update all these tickets at once" and marked
them dead. Repeat until all are done.

If RT's database had referential integrity with cascade on delete, one
could probably issue a single delete query to the database to clear
out those tickets and all associated records. Alas, it does not have
the references (since MySQL doesn't support them).

Hi,
I am new to RT so your help is really appreciated.
We are trying to see if we can create a dashboard and add a field which shows all the attachments for that ticket in the dashboard itself

Instead of going to the ticket details and seeing the attachments.

Is it possible, can you please guide me to achieve it..
