When I click remote control for a chat session, i get this " Unable to send a Remote Control request. The User is not associated with any active asset that has the SysAid agent installed."

I have the sysaid agent installed on the remote computer and have that asset linked to this user who initiated the chat

Are you using sysaid on a domain environment? I don't recall SysAid fixing this, but I know when trying to look at active SR's from a end user in the chat doesn't work either because of how it names an End User. I recall them stating they were going to apply their new naming structure with their next release..

Yes we are on a domain. I will try renaming the user and report back to what happens.

Thank you very much for your reply

I added the user to have the full username that would login to the domain, like first.last@domain.local and I still get the same error message

It has to do with how the chat client looks for the user, nothing to do with anything you've created in AD.. For example if I were looking for a user's SR's I'd click on the link, and it would come up empty, because the chat was looking for a domainuser person, and not a domain\user. on ours I tried the RC through chat, and it's looking for a domain\\user. That still hasn't been finding the domain\user. They fixed this in 8.0 on the asset page and online users page by applying a unique value to the user name that didn't have special characters in it that cause problems

I updated to 8.1 today and the remote control in the chat seems to work!

Thanks for your help!

Awesome. Can you check for me to see if you click on the SR view link for a user if it brings up their tickets? I haven't had time to deploy 8.1 to production...

Hi snagler,

First of all, I would upgradeto 8.1.03 because it containssomemore fixes to the remote control feature.
Second, I would make sure that the SysAid agents on the client computers are also upgraded to the latest version. If they are and you are still having issues, contact our customer relations for further examination.

Joseph.

So that Remote Control in chat works....is there anyway you can automatically setup sysaid to make the "owner" the same as the logged in user? I would always want to remote control the machine that the user is using...

Our users change many times, even during 1 work shift.

That's not possible to automatically set the owner field. When you initiate remote control from chat, SysAid will automatically send the request to the asset the user is currently logged onto...

I upgraded to v8.1.03 and im still gettting this when trying to initiate a RC session from chat:

"Unable to send a Remote Control request. The User is not associated with any active asset that has the SysAid agent installed."


In:
Prefrences > End User Portal

I have this option set:
User's asset determined by: "Login"

Should that be something differnt? I have tried all of them.

What am I missing?
