SD+ installation on Linux via cli
Folks, Is there a description of pre-requisits and/or instructions on installing SD+ on a linux server with no X? I just downloaded SD+ and after trial and error got SD+ to install. Based on my experience, what's necessary is to properly set JAVAHOME envs or, run the following: /ManageEngine_ServiceDesk_Plus.bin -is:javaconsole -is:javahome /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.07 -is:log log2.txt -console While the install completed, starting SD+ failed with the following error: test@helpdesk:/opt/ME/ServiceDesk/bin$
Sort by 'Updated'
Hi guys, Im new to these forums, and more or less with ServiceDesk aswell. This is obviously my first post, in the past I've been able to find what I was looking for through the search option, but this time was unable to do so. Basically Im asking if theres some way you can sort requests by 'last updated'. E.g. It puts the most recently modified (notes added, etc) at the top of the list. If you could let me know how to do this (if its possible), that would be great. If its not, are there any plans

SSL/TLS support
Hi! After evaluating the current version of SD+, I notice that it does not support SSL when configuring the email server section. Our institution requires SSL connection to our incoming and outgoing mail servers. Is anyone aware of a plan by the manufacturer to add support for SSL to SD+, and if so, when that might happen? Thanks for any information you may have! T
Technician in the "name" field on a new request.
Before the update (7504) I could type my own name (I'm a technician) in the name field on a new request, now I cant. Detail: As you look at a new request that you just created, under the "requester details" section, the "name" field: I cannot put a technicians name in there after the last update.

Restricting Certain Requests From Requesters
HI ! I found another post from 2008 that asked this question, but didn't know if, in the meanwhile, this feature had been added (or there is a workaround) so thought I'd ask.... Occasionally, requests come in, for example, ahead of time for "employee termination", etc. that shouldn't be viewable by anyone other than the requester. Is there a way to make a certain request "private" ? Even if other VP's or "power users/requesters" have been given permission to see the "entire site" -- we wouldn't want

7.5 and reporting
Anyone else having problems with Reports since the 7.5 update? For example: 1. Auto emailed reported are now blank with a "No data availiable to generate report" 2.

User cant see assets
I have tried making a user with a login then mutiple users with the same name but different department and no login names. On the user login, on creating a new request, when assigning a asset it says to show all stores owned by the user, which should be all the assets which the same username as the person logged in however it only shows those associated with the login users department. Does this filter by the ID of the user or the username value if not is it possible to make it show all assets that

AD Import not completing.
Hi, Is the AD import issue due to be fixed in the next release? We are currently on 7504 (Your SDP Version : 7.5.0 Build 7504 ) Each time we attempt to do an AD import - it attempts to do so for hours, possible days if I was willing to leave it run. After a SD support staff took a look it said it was counting 32000 ou's or something like that. We don't have that many OU's. This must be a known issue as I see there are many others looking for information on the same issue. Will this be resolved in

Business Rule Problem
I have a business rule which does the following: 1)If new request is from requester name = to one of (10) particular requesters 2)Place in Group "Help Desk" 3)Assign to Technician "Joe" I would like to be able to modify this rule to eliminate #3 and just Place in the group and leave technician as "unassigned" so that whole group gets notified if it goes unpicked. I am finding that if I remove action #3 from the rule, the requests from those requesters STILL get assigned to "Joe" even though that

Request, Change, Problem interface issues
Dear, Currently the SD performs fields checking accordingly to closing (closure) rules only after a technician pushed the Save button. If request has a few uncompleted fields only one of issues will be reported for one time. This approach (step by step ) is very annoying. Is it possible to use modern technologies (like AJAX) that revealed (changing the color of field for example) every uncompleted field soon after the status will be changed (it is depended on a type of request (incident, change,
Gripe with E-Mail notification rules.
I have tested this on both, our live server 7015 and the test server 7504 with the same result. We have rules set up to send an email to our group for when a new request is logged and assigned to our group. Also an email rule for when a request is assigned directly to a technician. This, I understand, will generate 2 emails, annoying but that I can live with. here's the annoying bit - there are certain calls that are resolved right on the phone within one minute (password resets and the like) so

Change Approval doesn't alter Change Status
When you use Change ( V7 Enterprise ) and send requests to CAB members all seems fine with the collection of the individual recommendations. The Change exists in a REQUESTED status for Change Status. Then someone with CAB approval status sets the CHANGE to Approved. The Approval status changes to APPROVED, but strangely the Change Status remains as REQUESTED. Is that right/supposed to occur and why? Regards, Andy

Technicians & Requesters
Hi, Is there any reason why my Technicians don't appear in the Requester's list? This only seems to have happened recently, possibly since the upgrade to the new version of SD+. Is there an assumption that as a Requester you won't have any IT incidents? How do I raise a new request for a staff member in the business that is listed as one of the Technicians? Thanks, Paul
