Creating a ServiceDesk Plus report showing the average requests per user, in each department
The total number of requests coming from one department doesn't always give you the full picture. A department with 100 people will obviously have more number of requests compared to a department with just 10 people in it. To find the actual load per user in each department, you need to calculate the average requests per user. This average can be used in your report to find the department wise split.

Relative data
Gents, Can you please explain, how should I set the counter settings, if I need to keep: 1. relative data 2. I don't need absolute values 3. I don't need an average by time For example I have the following transaction logs counter. PowerShell script returns the Number of the current log. Now+10min: 10250 Now: 10001 Now-10min: 9860 I need to monitor this counter, if it increased more than +200 per 10 minutes -> alert select * from polldatatemplate where graphid='976' "graphid";"oid";"timeinterval";"timeavg";"saveabsolutes";"protocolid";"isnumeric";"ssave"
OpManager Devices have lost viWebService Data
OpManager VMWare virtual devices have lost their connection\data to the VIWebService. Short of deleting and re-adding 100+ servers, is there a way to get them to pick up this data again? Doing a Rediscover removes all this monitoring.

High Availability
Step 4: Specify the Location of Encryption Master Key After extracting HAPack.zip in PMP Secondary Server, navigate to /conf folder, edit manage_key.conf and specify the location of pmp_key.key (encryption master key). PMP requires the pmp_key.key file accessible with its full path when it starts up every time. Hi Team, To specify location of pmp_key.key file do we need to share PMP_Primary_Installation_Folder or we can share only conf folder from primary server ?

Asset history query report
Is there way to view a users assigned asset history? I'd like to be able to search a user and see a list of what items they've been assigned for instance which workstations they've used or which projectors were checked out to them. I'd prefer to not have to run some type report to accomplish this each time. I know the assets have histories but the users do not. Maybe if there was a way to show relationships that user abc has used workstation 123 and workstation 125. Not just the current one

Can't put Tabular Reports on the dashboard
Hello. I have a problem I'm hoping to get some help with. If I make a report, like a Matrix Report, I get a button called "Add to dashboard" so I can see the report easily in my overview. If I make a Tabular Report however, the button is nowhere to be found. I want to add my Tabular Report to the dashboard. It would be much better if the button was always there, but in cases where it couldn't be used it would be greyed out and then, when you point at it, it would tell you why you couldn't use it

Hi, We have a cloud servicedesk server (AZURE), and at the beggining we were able to login by administrator account without any problems, then we imported users from our domain controller and we were able to login with the domain users too.

But now we cant even login with the administrator account. We upgraded the application already, but still the same
Text Conversion & Formatting
Hi, We copy content from various sources into SDP, and find that some sources don't work well with the system and get interpreted as different fonts, sizes and formatting.

Could you advise what coding (XML\HTML) should be used when importing text into SDP ? I tried notepad but that was inconsistent, MS Word impacts formatting.....so is

Hi, NCM 12.0 installed on a linux OS, i have some device in inventory to backup the configuration and those devices don't support SSH version 1.
