Date filed Issue number Description
2023-04-11 ITSI-29432 Readme file is not present for the ITE Work Alert Routing Content Pack
2022-09-01 ITSI-25976 "Select Incident Priority" Dropdown of "ServiceNow - Incident Inspector" Dashboard is not working properly when we select "Equals" based filter
2022-04-14 ITSI-22933 Duplicate Visualisations created for "Security Overall" block in M365 Overview Glass Table


2022-04-08 ITSI-22874 Content Pack for VMWare Monitoring links to the wrong app
2022-04-07 ITSI-22848 KPI Base Search SPLK-Indexer.FutureTime has invalid timerange (latest=+18y@y) in search query

Workaround:
Existing customers of the Content Pack can update the "SPLK-Indexer.FutureTime" KPI search to overcome the issue.

+Steps for the workaround+

  1. In IT Service Intelligence, go to *Configuration → KPI Base Searches.*
  2. Open the "SPLK-Indexer.FutureTime" KPI.
  3. Go to the search query of the KPI and replace the value of 'latest' from "+18y@y" to "01/18/2038:00:00:00". The updated search query would look like

{noformat}| tstats count, latest(_time) as futuretime WHERE index=* earliest=+30min@m latest="01/18/2038:00:00:00" by host, sourcetype | eval _time=now(), time_delta=round((futuretime-_time)/60/60, 2){noformat}

  1. Save the KPI.
  • Note :* the suggested value for the _latest_ parameter is "01/18/2038:00:00:00" because the search executed in different time zones could generate this error again. Therefore, this is the optimal value which could run the search in all the time zones possible in the client environment.
