      • Planning
      • Development
      • Testing
      • UAT
      • Deployment
      • Training
      • Review

    • You can create a release request easily by using pre-configured templates, associate workflows with release requests to define the direction of the flow of the release process. Using workflows, you can include statuses in each stage, set up approvals, allocate stage-wise permissions to users, and configure notifications.To learn more about release management, Click here.

Announcement on Remote AE Behavior changes

With this release, we are replacing the existing AE agent used in Remote Asset Explorer(RAE - Distributed scan) with Endpoint Central (formerly Desktop Central) agent.

Agent-based scanning can no longer be initiated directly from ServiceDesk Plus MSP. All agents need to push data via Remote AE servers only.

You can download the compatible Remote AE build here.

    Changes due to DC Bundle in RAE installation:

  • AE agents used for scanning Windows machines are replaced with Endpoint Central (formerly Desktop Central) agents.
  • WMI scan (used for Windows machines) and SSH/Telnet scan (used for Linux and Mac machines) are no longer supported. Linux and Mac machines should also be scanned using the new Endpoint Central (formerly Desktop Central) agent.
  • The script-based scanning used to scan devices outside your domain/network is no longer supported.
  • Removed the "MAC Address identification during scan" configuration from scan settings.
  • Removed the option to choose machines for remote control prompt. However, you can enable/disable the remote control prompt for all machines under Admin >> Agent Configuration.
  • Removed "WMI Timeout" and "Automatic Delta Scan"configurations from scan settings.
  • Configuring TCP protocols and ciphers are no longer supported.

SDPMSP-16084: Basic authentication has been replaced with API Key-based authentication for pushing data from a remote server. Hence RAE needs to reconfigure to make the scan to work with this SDP MSP installation.

Behavior changes :

SDPMSP-16085: The use of AE agents for scanning Windows machines is no longer supported.

Note: You need to upgrade your Remote AE server as older versions are no longer supported. You can use the PPM path as mentioned - to upgrade RAE instance. 6500>> 6600>> 6700>> 6800>> 6900
