Importing AD Users into AD Imported Groups

Hello There,

 

I managed to import AD Security Groups into Service Desk. However, I want to import (map) the members of these security groups to be members of the groups that were created in Service Desk. I managed to find an attribute in AD that lists the users groups (The groups that he is a member of). What is the best way to get these users automatically added into the Service Desk Groups?


how can I use port 443 instead of port 80 ? [LDMS]

How to send data from a thrid android app to Velocity

My goal is to send data to  Velocity client. For this reason I am using an intent on my custom Application. the code is the following:

 

 

public void  SendToVelocity(View view)
{  Intent sendIntent = new Intent();  sendIntent.setAction("com.wavelink.intent.action.EMDK.SEND");  sendIntent.addCategory("android.intent.category.DEFAULT");  sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "RFID data");  sendIntent.setType("text/plain");   if (sendIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {  startActivity(sendIntent);  }

}

However the above code does not get inside if statement. This means that it can not resolve current intent action.

My questions are:

  1. Is the above (com.wavelink.intent.action.EMDK.SEND) action string valid for calling corresponding Velocity Action? If not what is the corrcet string?
  2. The above method would like to be called on a key press. What script to I need to write in Velocity console in order to call a method of another application?

A Timer Request

We want to log the time an analyst works on a given task.  We want a simple Start Timer/Stop Timer action.  I've looked at the build in Start Clock/Stop Clock actions but this seems to me to be based on a business calendar as used in Incidents and Changes.  I don't see the relevance here with using Tasks.  If someone has an answer for using built in Start/Stop clock, then I'm open.  In the meantime, I've tried to create my own timer for my tasks.

 

Basically, I'm proposing a process (as below) that when the action, Start Timer is clicked, it automatically sets the TimerOn value to DateTime.Now.  This is accomplished through the automatic action, TimeLog that uses the window below and setting the TimerOn value by using the following calculation:

import System

static def GetAttributeValue(ProjectTask):

     Value = DateTime.Now

     return Value

 

When the action, Stop Timer is clicked, it automatically sets the TimerOff value to DateTime.Now.  This is accomplished using the same process as above, but now setting the TimerOff value using the same calculation.

The next automatic action, uses the same window and calculates the TimeLogged value using the following calculation:

import System

static def GetAttributeValue(ProjectTask):

DeltaTime = ProjectTask._TimerOff - ProjectTask._TimerOn

if TimeTaskTotal = 0:

     TimeTaskTotal = DeltaTime

else:

     TimeTaskTotal = TimeTaskTotal + DeltaTime

ProjectTask._TimerOn = 0

ProjectTask._TimerOff = 0

return TimeTaskTotal

 

So nothing is not working.

  1. When I click Start Timer, the action says run successful, but doesn't update my TimerOn value
  2. When I click Stop Timer, the action says run successful, but doesn't update my TimerOff or TimeLogged values

 

I created a couple of string attributes, strTimerOn and strTimerOff to try and debug the calculation, but they don't show any values when the actions are run.

 

My process logic seems plausible to me, yet the execution is failing.  Anyone care to help?

How to Disable Windows 10 Feature Updates from Auto Installing

For organizations that wish to disable auto win10 updates, the below is a useful hack. However, this does not prevent an end-user from going to System Settings and clicking the button "Check for Updates". When this happens, not only will they receive patches, but v1709 will be installed.

https://community.ivanti.com/docs/DOC-47469#jive_content_id_How_to_block_automatic_update_to_the_Creators_Edition_of_Win…

 

 

If you wish to prevent users from being able to self apply patches to their systems and only be allowed to be patched from EPM, please follow the following.

 

Apply the below registry entries and once applied users will see the message below

Rule for ScanSnap scanning software

I have one user who has a locally attached scanner and needs ScanSnap software. Surprisingly (well not really) its not easy to configure a rule.

 

Most of the files are located in C:\program files (X86)\PFU\scansnap

 

I don't see any EXE files being denied. However, I see .tmp, .log, .raw files being denied.  Attached are screen shots. Your assistance is appreciated!

Execute Windows PowerShell Script fails with "Unable to set execution policy" with option "Override execution policy for this task" enabled

We try to run a task "Execute Windows PowerShell script" with the script from the "Script" tab. We selected the "Override execution policy for this task" because the cmdlets we try to use needs elevation.

Clik here to view.

But the output (Console Error) says: "Unable to set execution policy.". If we don't enable the override option, the script runs, but fails because of the need for elevation. Any tips?

What credentials does installing an agent use

I'm running 2016.3 no patches

When I try to push out a updated Agent I am getting a lot of failures. So I made a batch file to run the self-contained agent with domain admin credentials and I have better luck with it,

More then half the computers are logged in as power users and fail the conventional agent push. so I'm assuming the Normal agent push is trying to use local system credentials is trying to access a remote share.

1. Is there a way to change what credentials the agent runs under?

Powershell CallScript ändert das Ergebnis ab

Hallo zusammen,

 

ich habe das Problem, dass ein Script lokal ausgeführt funktioniert, aber per DSM CallScript das Ergebnis verfälscht.

 

Das Script soll den Zielpfad eines links ändern also von z.B. "c:\temp\Benutzer Ordner" in "c:\temp2\Benutzer Ordner".

Wenn ich das Script lokal ausführe klappt es einwandfrei. Führe ich das Script mit DSM und CallScript aus ist das Ergebnis "c:\temp2\Benutzer_Ordner".

Führe ich das Script per Befehl " ExecuteEx('%WINSYSDIR%\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe','-file "c:\temp\link_veraendern.ps1"','')/?/TL " aus, bleibt das Script hängen.

X64 sollte irrelevant sein, da das Script auf einem X86 Betriebssystem ausgeführt wird.

Die Execution Policy steht auf Unrestricted (zum testen).

 

Hier die LOG Einträge

 

15:14:58.333 2     nilsPipe: NPI: -> ExecuteEx('C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe','-file "c:\temp\link_veraendern.ps1"','')/?
15:14:58.333 2     nilsPipe: NPI: Command line logging has been enabled.
15:14:58.333 2     nilsPipe: NPI: To disable it, enable the flag 'Do not log command line parameters' of the command
15:14:58.333 2     nilsPipe: NPI: Execute: 'C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe'
15:14:58.333 2     nilsPipe: NPI: Waiting for process...

 

Ich bin mit meinem Latein am Ende

 

Hoffnungsvolle Grüße

Leerzeichen werden durch Unterstriche ersetzt

Hallo zusammen,

 

bei folgendem Skript werden bei einer Ausführung (egal ob ExecuteEx oder CallScript) im DSM die Leerzeichen im Pfad durch Unterstriche ersetzt. Führt man das Script händisch aus, klappt es wunderbar.

 

#shell zur bearbeitung laden

$shell = new-object -com wscript.shell

 

#links abrufen

get-childitem -Path C:\Users\$OU-test\Desktop -filter *.lnk -recurse | foreach {

#link öffnen

$lnk = $shell.CreateShortcut($_.fullname)

Write-Verbose $lnk

#alten Pfad speichern

$oldpath= $lnk.TargetPath

Write-Verbose $oldpath

#alten pfad gegebenenfalls ersetzen

$newpath = $oldpath.Replace("U:\test1","U:\test2")

Write-Verbose $newpath

#neuen Pfad in geöffnetem Link einfügen

$lnk.TargetPath = $newpath

#Link speichern

$lnk.Save()

}

 

 

Das Script soll bei allen Links im Desktop Ordner des Users, bei denen im Zielpfad "U:\test1" vorkommt mit "U:\test2" ersetzen.

In den Ordnern gibt es allerdings Links mit dem Zielpfad "U:\test1\sehr lang".

Diese werden in "U:\test2\sehr_lang" umbenannt. Ist schonmal jemand auf dieses Problem gestoßen und kann mir sagen woran das liegt und vor allem ob man das irgendwie umgehen kann?

 

Vielen Dank für die Hilfe

Create an object that either creates a new Incident or attaches itself to an existing Incident

As part of our counter support, we want customers to check in.  This is new for us.  One of the biggest reasons we've found people are resistant is that the way the check-in process works is best suited for new tickets.  Sometimes, a customer is there for an existing ticket, and doesn't want to create a new one.  Also, sometimes they just have a quick question and would prefer not to fill out as much as a new ticket requires.

 

With this, we are exploring the possibility of a new object "Counter Checkin" which will then either attach itself to an existing ticket or create a new one, depending on what the customer chooses, and is extremely limited in required information.  I'm looking for options on how to implement, and would prefer to not create a new incident for each counter checkin as this would entail adding several attributes to every incident record, and just seems bloaty to me.  Any ideas?

 

Thank you!

Skip Quick Action in Workflow

Can someone confirm if possible.

 

I have a Quick Action in a workflow that invokes a web service call; all works fine.

 

I can't see any way to bypass this Quick Action based on a Global constant (ie WebServiceIntegrationEnabled" true/false value) as "IF" etc all target an attribute rather than allow an expression as I need to check the Global Constant value.

 

Am I missing anything and is it possible?

 

Julian
