For instance if I try to open a PDF attachment it defaults to application/x-download and doesn't select adobe reader as the default application to open the file. I have tried to delete mimetype.rdf in the firefox profile but still have the same issue. Ticket attachment work fine. Also PO attachment work fine when using IE instead of firefox. Any ideas
Is the survey component very limited, or is it just me?
We're currently using SDP 9.1 Enterprise. We've never used the survey component before, but after some discussion among our group and some managers, we've decided to start using it. Some of my questions are: Is it possible to create more than one survey? We would like to create different surveys for different issues (one survey for network issues, one survey for general support requests, one survey for production systems being down, etc.) and send them out according to the type of incident. Is it

Setting a threshold based on ICMP stats.
Hello, I am using OpManager 12. I have a server that I need to monitor that I do not have SNMP, WMI, or any other access to other than ICMP. I can add the device, and I can see two stats. availability and packet loss. I would like to configure a monitor such that when packetloss exceeds 20%, I am notified. Pretty much all the monitors I have seen are based on polling data pulled from the device via SNMP or WMI, and I can not seem to find a simple 'ping' threshold that I can assign to the device.

Request Closed Notification - auto-reopen
Our SQL Server is setup send an email to ODSDP when there is a problem with a maintenance task or service so that a ticket is created automatically. Our ODSDP is setup to notify our users when a request is closed. When we close a request from the SQL Server, ODSDP is automatically sending an email to the SQL Server Address.Since there is no email account existing for the SQL server, only an email address, there is a bounceback and the request is re-opened. Is there a way to deal with this so that
Is there a way to always notify multiple requester when a new request is created?
An example request, when a Supply Chain request comes into service desk I want multiple email addresses to be notified of a new request for Supply Chain. Currently the only way to do this is request anybody creating a request manually enter it in the "emails to notify". Quite often they forgot and the other requesters that would like a notification of a new request do not receive it. I'm looking for a way to always notify a specific group of people when a request is created for that department. I
Is there a way to disallow a requester from replying to a request with a closed status?
We often find requester commented/replying in service desk to closed tickets. In some cases there is no technician assigned because the request was deemed invalid or there maybe a technician assigned in other cases. In either scenario the responses are missed because we don't look at closed requests that often. It would be nice to make requests with a status of closed or maybe even resolved read only to the requester, is this possible? Erick

Serial number vs Service tag why are they in the wrong fields
I have noticed that all my computers synced to SDP from DesktopCentral put both the serial number and the service tag in the Service tag field in SDP.

Development on SDP Ondemand - stalled?
Guys, I've just noticed that since 20 april 2016 (more than 2 months now), nothing has happened on SDPOndemand whatsoever... something going on? It's not that there isn't any room for improvement, as the forums here suggest, there's plenty of room to continuously improve the SDPOndemand application. I'd especially like to see to keep the pace going of the ondemand version versus the on-premises version. I've noticed the SDP on-premises version has gotten quite a bit of updates and fixes in April,
Prevent forwarding tickets to HelpDesk making me the requestor
When someone emails me about a problem (instead of the helpdesk like they are supposed to), I normally just forward their ticket to the helpdesk. This creates a ticket with me as the requestor, which I then have to go in and edit the details, and I can't get all the details correct (like Asset, for example). The only other solution I have found is to just copy/paste their email in as a ticket under their name. Granted, I could just tell them to submit a ticket, but a simple way for me to forward

What's happening with iTunes patch support?
It would appear that you guys have not released a patch for iTunes since October 2015. I have just spoken to one of your support techs, today, who said it is a known issue because Apple changed the download link from HTTP to HTTPS. I pointed out that a similar download issue with Java, just a couple of months ago, was fixed within days. However, the iTunes issue hasn't been fixed for six months, so far. Can we please get some better commitment from the DC team, on a fix date, for this please?

Hi, I have a small problem after the upgrade from version 92041 to 92063 (DesktopCentral).
