Upgrade from Build 8110
No one has done anything to our ServiceDesk Plus in regards to updates. I'm still running version 8.1.0 Build 8110. I know that you have to upgrade the version in order. What do I need to attempt to have our IT staff complete this? I have downloaded the 3 most recent versions, but I will assume that I am missing some and can;t go from 8110 directly to 9100. Thanks
Report Row Spacing Changed?
I'm moving reports from SDP 9218 to 9302 and noticed there seems to be a different in the row spacing for each item. See the photos below. I'm running the same query with each report, just on a different version. I think the reports we were getting looked much cleaner than having a bunch of empty white space. SDP 9218: SDP 9302: I don't believe it makes a difference, but the query i'm using is the following: SELECT projectdet.TITLE "Project Title", IsNull(Milestonedet.TITLE,'No Milestones Defined')

Ticket Creation . . . oddity
Let's say I have three Support Groups: Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 Technician 1 is a member of Group 1 and Group 2, but not a member of Group 3 Technician 1 takes a call from an end user. He knows that the ticket needs to be assigned to Group 3. He creates the ticket, and assigns it to Group 3. When he clicks "Add Request", he sees the error "Request does not fall under your permitted scope. So you are not authorized to update the same." and is given the options to "Go back and try again" or

Switching to largely mobile workforce, questions
Previously our environment was largely a desktop lan that was easily managed. We're about to change to a largely mobile workforce, with users frequently outside of the network. Are there any serious disadvantages to running 500+ devices a remote/mobile agents using direct communication, or any reason why that would not be advised. Also, if we create distributions server to handle some of the load, will the agent attempt to use direct communication when the device is outside of the network, or should

OpManager 11 API Client not loading plug-ins
When using OpManager 11.6 with the API client, plugins that work with the old ui by using the Jump to link, do not load with the api client and only the download the product plugin page will load. (APM works with either ui). Netflow Analyzer, NCM, Optuils, Eventlog Analyzer, all work when you log into the services individually as well. I would like to get this to work as I would like to eventually upgrade to a newer version.
SDP will not start after reboot
I am normally very patient, but after several days of much trial and error, I am coming to the realization that we may never be able to migrate from build 9230. Before I can do that, I need a STABLE version of SDP running in DEV (if there is any such thing). To start, all I want to do is make a copy of my production database and bring it up in my development environment (Windows Server 2008 R2, 4 CPUs and 16GB RAM). After much trial and all error, I completely removed SDP from my development server,

Since free version comes with ability to manage 25 nodes what happens with those freebies once I decide to buy 100 desktop license?

Auto delete disabled users after 30 days
Hi. We are updating our terminated users policy. We have a on-prem ad synced with Azure AD and Office365. Currently it works like this: HR sends a request by Zendesk to IT who disables the terminated user using the Disable User function. We´d like the AD account to be deleted after 30 days, as a disabled account still receives emails in office 365. However we want to keep the account disabled for 30 days without deleting, in case of needing ot reactivate the user. I have looked at automations,

Disable the error message when a user doesn't match in the second
We'd like to use the Password Synchronization feature so that a small set of our users with a matching account in another domain can keep both passwords matched. This functionality works but users that do not have an account in the second domain (90+% of our users) receive an error that the second password change failed. This causes a lot of phone calls, concerned that the process has failed. Could I request an option to disable the "There is no such user in this domain" error for synchronized domains?
Can we disable failed messages when a synchronized account doesn't exist?
Hi, We're looking to extend our implementation so that a subset of our users that have a second account in another domain can reset both passwords simultaneously using ADSelfService Plus. I.e. they'll login to ADSelfService Plus as they currently do, against the primary domain, but when they change their password the password on their matching account in the secondary domain is also updated. In testing this appears to work as expected however, the majority of our users don't have accounts in the
Permission denied. Please contact your administrator.
I've added a second Active Directory Domain to our Test ADSelfService Plus environment. I've also enabled Password Synchronization but it's giving me errors that I'm having trouble resolving. When I change the password of a user that exists in both domains the primary domain updates correctly but the second domain fails with an error "Permission denied. Please contact your administrator.". If I log in against the second domain and change the password it updates correctly. Everything I've been able

opmanager evaluation
Hi, we are evaluating opmanager and i have some questions and comments. I installed the enterprise edition with one probe (12200). I find script monitors to be really inferior to built in ones. The real time graphs seem to always show "percentage" on y-axis, they don't show history data when you log into OpManager, the only data you can collect is integers (or at least i don't seem to be able to collect floats). The mouse over business view in dashboard is misaligned (you need to hover the mouse

I'm REALLY beginning to hate the Data validation NOT performed by MSP
Before I get into all the MESS I'm dealing with I will preface my statement by saying I just realized if I login as the default "administrator" account, I see one set of accounts but if I login as my personal account which also has SDAmin rights, I'm getting a DIFFERENT set of Accounts including the one Account I'm trying to remove. So, on to the crap I'm dealing with... It appears I have lots of orphaned data elements. I've got sites with accounts associated but the accounts do not appear in the
Tip of the week: Setting thresholds on charts
Most KPIs have thresholds. A globally accepted limit within which the respective KPI value is considered to be under control. Some examples are resolution time SLAs, first response SLAs, server CPU utilization thresholds, traffic volume thresholds etc. Different types of notifications are triggered by your applications when these thresholds are breached, however, you don't see these thresholds in your reports. Using the threshold feature in Analytics Plus, you can visually find out how compliant
