Ticketing for computer statuses
In the Warning status and Critical status sections of the Ticketing tab, you can configure ticketing rules for the computer statuses. This allows tickets to be created in Autotask when the computer status in Kaspersky Security Center changes to Warning or Critical. You can edit ticket settings either for an individual computer status or for several statuses at the same time.
To set up ticketing for computer status:
- In the Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP window, click the Ticketing tab.
- In the left pane, select the Warning status or Critical status section to configure ticketing for computer statuses.
- In the Create ticket column, use the toggle buttons to enable or disable ticket creation for the corresponding status descriptions.
By default, ticketing is enabled for all computer status descriptions.
- Edit the ticketing settings.
You can edit the main ticketing settings, which are displayed in the main screen, as well as additional ticketing settings, which are displayed in the additional pop-up window.
- To edit the main ticketing settings, select the line that contains the status description and edit its ticketing settings by selecting the required values in the corresponding fields.
- To edit both the main and additional ticketing settings, select the one or more lines that contain the event severities and click the Edit button above the table.
Editing ticketing settings for multiple computer statuses is useful if you want to assign the same ticketing settings to these computer statuses. If you want the ticketing settings to be different, edit them individually for each computer status.
You can edit the following ticketing settings:
- Queue—Select the queue in which to put the created ticket. The drop-down list contains the names of the Autotask queues. By default, the tickets are put in the Monitoring Alert queue. This value is required.
- Priority—Select the priority level for the tickets created in Autotask. Assigning priority levels to the tickets created for computer status change is used to prioritize corresponding Autotask tickets. The ticket priority allows you to respond to the issues in order of their importance, so that more urgent problems can be resolved sooner. The default priority for Critical computer statuses is Critical, and for Warning computer statuses it is Medium. If one of these basic priority values is deleted in Autotask, the default value is blank. This value is required.
- Due—Specify the time interval, in hours, during which the ticket issue must be resolved and the ticket must be closed.
- Work type—Select the work type to be assigned to the ticket.
- Issue type—Select the Autotask issue type to be assigned to the ticket.
- Issue subtype—Select the Autotask issue subtype to be assigned to the ticket.
- When you finish configuring ticketing for computer statuses, click the Save changes button to save the ticketing settings.
Ticketing for computer status is configured and Autotask tickets are created in accordance with the specified rules.
Kaspersky Security Integration Service for MSP can create Service Tickets only for active Autotask accounts. Therefore, make sure that the Active check box is selected in the account properties.
