Fetching Mail with Exchange 2007
Is anyone fetching emails from an Exchange 2007 Server? Since moving my "HelpDesk" email account to Exchange 2007, SD will not fetch email anymore. It looks like the port has changed to 143 versus 110, but still no email. I did notice Exchange now lists the service as IMAP4 versus IMAP and wondering if SD will not work with this. I have email support but no replies yet. Anyone?
1 more junk problem & 1 logical problem
1) When fetching e-mail with LONG non-english subject causes problem - real subject is broken and everything beggining from ?=koi8-r is junk 2) Resolution is set to Mandatory field in Request Closing Rules. In request - Going to Resolution and just pressing Save and close (not entering anything in Resolution field) causes Request to be closed with empty Resolution.
Requester as a group
We are evaluating servicedesk and would like to ask if it is possible to group requesters? cause we need to notify other people (e.g. department heads etc. ) aside from the requester himself. Thanks

Table problem?
We are currently running servicedesk 5507 on mysql on a 2003 server. We've tried to upgrade to 6002 twice, but not succesfull. Java.exe on the server explodes the cpu (100%) What we found out was that the current table "requestonhold" in 5007 is huge compared to the total database. Database = 545,5 mb with 7 mnl rows Requestionhold table= 431 mb with 6,9 mnl rows (see attachment) When opening the weblient and view 'requests on hold' there are zero requests. Could this pe the problem? Do you have
Assets and Workstations - combined in one report
Hi, We need to generate reports on what assets are owned by Department. We want to be able to list the Workstations alongside the non-workstation assets. It seems an obvious thing to have, but I just can't figure out how to merge the Workstations and Assets. How is it possible? Many thanks, Eva
java.exe taking a lot of cpu
Hi, When I reboot my server on wich SD+ 6002 is installed, there is one particalur process that takes � 75% cpu. The process is java.exe. After approx. 2 hours the cpu % drops to normal usage. We think this started happening when me moved database from mysql (local disk) to mssql (remote server). What can we do to avoid this bad behavior of java.exe ? Greetings, Woef.

SDPlus 5.5 - Requests Filter "My Pending or Unassigned&
Hi there, we have just set up Service Desk 5.5. The requests tabs has several filters, none of which seems to display exactly what we want, which would be something like "My Pending or Unassigned" - ie all pending/outstanding issues for the logged-in user, plus all unassigned issues. Is it possible for us to add this as a new filter or similar? Grateful for any help! Many Thanks Dan Adams
Error deleting a domain scan
I was doing a domain scan, then ManageEngine froze and gave me back some SQL errors (wish I had to took a screenshot). I had to restart ManageEngine to get the pages again. It then grouped all the Workstations under the domain I was scanning under "Unassigned Workstations". So, I scanned again, and it still groups them all under " Unassigned Workstations". So, I thought the domain scan must be bugged from the crash so I tried to delete it and I get this error. FAILURE :Error occurred while deleting
Request additional variable on SMS Notification Template
Is it possible to add 'Requester Phone" variable to the 'Message Area' of the "Alert Technician by SMS when Request is Assigned" / Notification Template? The only phone variable is "Requester Mobile" which we do not use. Thanks!
Colour indicate high priorities
We have two major priorities amongst our list of priorities; CRITICAL and HIGH. When a request is assigned with a critical or high priority, is there any way of colour indicating them so they stand out on the technicians / administrators page?

Problem scanning domain or workstation

I know the password is correct and I've already seached on post before and the pc's I am trying to scan have "Enable Distrib buted COM on this computer" enabled.

Security warning in IE
Hi, I have an issue with SDP 6.0 (upgraded from 5507): when opening a new request Internet Explorer 6.0 pops a security warning message: "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items. Do you want to display the nonsecure items?". I attached a screenshot. This is a pretty big issue as we have 600 users that will call and ask about the message, let alone the possibility of a real security problem. If you're thinking of saying "change the security settings in IE" - don't; the group policy of the

physical memory reporting error
I just upgraded to Service Desk + 6 from 5.5.0 build 5501. I did a new domain scan which worked fine, however, I've noticed that the physical memory isn't reporting the correct amount of RAM for any of the computers. As an example, my PC has 2 GB of RAM and it is reporting it as 1MB of Total memory (and all memory readings for that matter). How can this be corrected? I've included screenshots of my memory reading from windows and the service desk plus report. Thanks for your assistance...

Please advice me. Ajay

Machine scanned by IP, not hostname
Hello. I have a machine inside an AD domain which I have to create manually (because during the domain scan it fails with 'No response received from workstation) so I put its hostname as its name, but the scan fails again. The hostname is 'MARKETING' and the IP is 101.0.0.70. It is correctly scanned if I create it manually and I put its IP address as its name. It's very curious because the result of the scan is saved under 'MARKETING' host, not under 101.0.0.70 host details. When I try to scan it
Scanning Status Feature
please add the ability to jump into an existing domain/network scan and monitor the existing progress. When you start a domain/network scan you can monitor the status in the pop-up window, if whatever reason that window gets closed you lose the ability to monitor the progress of that scan, if a scan normally takes a couple hours due to hundreds of workstations in multiple WAN locations then there is no way to monitor this progress. This is a soar spot in my opinion. Thanks
Business rules: Connect different business rules?
Is it possible to connect different business rules? This is how we want to use it, but i'm not sure if it is possible in the version 6.0: We have some business rules which check the subject for which product is meant by the cusomer/partner. This realy works fine and we can set all we need. But now there are some more points we want to do with the business rules: - When the E-Mail is marked as important we want to set the priority as High - We want to check if in the subject is "IMPORTANT:" included
Ssh linux and different password
If is possible for the networks that are not in the domain, like for example, servers linux, to be able to add it a one by one, with a different password for each machine and not password in general, with support for ssh. This is, because all are not with the same password Rgds Anghellus
Email job submissions
Since we upgraded our Service desk to version 6.0 some (not all) users submit helpdesk requests with no reply from the helpdesk and no record of there request on the helpdesk. I have checked the anti spam filter it has no filters in place at all. All the requests are internal so are not affected by our external spam filter. I can find no way of debugging this please help
Overdue Scheduled Tickets
If a scheduled ticket goes overdue, it doesn't get flagged as overdue, so doesn't appear in our overdue reports. If we want to schedule a request we change the status to Scheduled and then change the due date to the date we are going to complete the request. If the request is not closed by that due date shouldn't the ticket show as overdue?? Regards Helen

Spam filter question
