Make Last Logged-in User as the Owner

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to make the last logged-in user of an asset the Owner? Could we use the Login History tab of an Asset to auto-populate the Owner field on the Information tab? We have the agent deployed to a majority of our assets. As I understand it, the last logged-in user would be whomever it was at the time of a network discover scan. This would be sufficient information for us. TIA

RCG Issue

Hi, I am having issues with one user who works on another companies network. When trying to use RCG they receive the prompt to allow the connection and I can see within Asset Management the message "the remote computer confirmed the remote control session" however it just sits on that message and never actually connects the session. Does anyone have any ideas on this? From the RCG documentation it should only require port 443 and access to our sysaid instance. We are able to use RCG fine on other similar sites.

Need help scanning linux servers

Not sure how to scan linux servers, I have tried snmp and wmi scans with ssh and neither work. I use protquery from my RDS to the linux server and it can connect fine.. so the question is how do you scan linux servers? I am not using the agent, just using the network discovery feature.

Monitoring and Monitoring Templates

I recently inherited an instance of SysAid, and have been doing a lot of reading up on the platform over the past few days. While the team has been using the Help Desk functionality heavily, there has not been much focus on the monitoring side of things, which is where my role comes in. First the basics: Yes, I am setup as an administrator. Yes, I've read the pertinent information in the SysAid Help modules. Yes, I searched the forums. Yes, I Googled it... Now on to the issue: We have a fairly significant number of servers and critical systems which need to be monitored. While I could set up individual monitors for each device, I've seen a number of references to using "Monitoring Templates" which would make this much easier. Sadly, the option to view said templates, for Workstations and/or Servers, does not exist in my view. Finally, the kicker: I find in the email history of the previous admin that our license is expiring in less than 30 days. So I either need to get this figur

Agent Status not corretly reported to Network Discovery --> RDP

Hallo, I have the following issue: Agents correctly deployed in version 20.1.32.: I can veryfy it by going directly oin the pcs or giving a look the the on premise tool "Deploy SysAid agents". On the Cloud I can see only some psc reporting the Agent in the current version and working - but only for few of them - the Others are visible but the status of the agent is "Not Installed" - and this is false !! Note, almost all the pcs are identical both in Hardware and in Sotware configuration. I verified with wireshark that the pcs reported themselbes to the cloud service correctly - can anyone help me please ? Thanx

Any way to find asset's product key for certain software?

Right now you are able to click on each individual asset and find a product key for a specific type of software under the software tab. I was wondering if SysAid has the capabilities to list all the assets product key for a specific software. For example if I wanted a list of everyone on our network's Microsoft Office 2003 key is that possible?

Inventory update issues

We continue to have issues with some pc's not updating. When we click update now nothing happens on some of our PC's. The only solution we have been given is to undeploy the agent and redeploy it. That option is taking too long. I'm attaching a few logs from 2 different PC's. Each one is getting a different error. 1 is getting this error: ttpGetReqHandler::SendGetMessagesRequest Failed to send http get request: URL = https://cent******** The other is getting this: Operating system error code: 10061, Description No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it Exception description: Unable to connect to the remote server Inner Exception description: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. If I undeploy and redeploy the updates start happening again but it seems like they just stop working again after a while.

Deploying agent to Linux

With version 8.5.05, I believe you can now deploy the new agent to linux servers. I tried to do this, but it failed with the following reason: "lshw not found" Am I doing something wrong?

Existing Asset Database into Sysaid

Is there a way to connect Sysaid assets to our existing database containing assets? I don't want to do an import rather a live connection because the data changes often. Looking for a way, let me know if possible. Thanks,

Invalid Account Credentials - SysAid Free

I'm attempting to install the sysaid agent on a few servers but regardless of what I do I can't get it installed. Installed I get "Invalid Account Credentials: Please Try again". I've gone so far as copying and pasting straight out of my downloads page but it still doesn't work. What am I missing?

Batch manage Assets

Hi Folks, I hope you can help with this one. We support a very large council network with various towns and multiple sites in each town. The Council has maintenance agreements with us which run out at different times and have different agreement numbers. Its a bit of a bind having to change each asset individually to reflect new maintenance dates & agreement. What we would like to do is perform a batch change to a group of devices to reflect new agreement and new dates. Not sure if this is achievable ? Thanks in Advance Scotty

Default device type classifications from SNMP

I have a brand of wireless access points that are being tagged as a 'Printer' type device upon initial discovery. I update the device to 'WAP' enter a serial number, etc. Once SNMP scans again the device is recreated as a 'Printer' type device and I'm left with duplicate entries. Where can I change how Sysaid determines device types from SNMP scans?

Duplicate Assets from WMI & Agent

We setup our SysAid environment to complete a WMI scan and add assets from it. And now we are starting to push out the SysAid agent to devices (via our software installation tool (Microsoft Intune)) -- we are now receiving duplicate entries for the same device. It shows both the WMI and Agent asset (see attached screenshot for the example of an Microsoft Surface device). Won't SysAid see the duplicate device names and merge the two since they came from 2 different discovery types? Should we only use one method of discovery? Any recommendations would be appreciated before we push out the agent to all users. Thanks! Rob IEDA CIO

Capturing Model and Product Codes

This is a long shot, but I am trying to find out if there is a way that the Sysaid Agent can or already does collect information that would be retrieved if I ran the following from Powershell: (Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_BaseBoard).Product or Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_BaseBoard I would really like to know if some of our models have different product codes. Note: Product Codes are specific to the manufacture, not related to Windows Product Codes.

Auto register of connected devices

I remember during the sales pitch our salesman mentioned that the agent would automatically be able to detect monitors attached etc. I haven't found the setting in SysAid on how to do this. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks
