Are you a Service Desk 4.5 customer?
Please review the Customer Letter January 2009 for an option to extend Severity Level 1 support until December 31, 2010, for customers migrating to Service Manager 7. Go to http://support.openview.hp.com/encore/sd4_5.jsp for more information.
As you may know, the announced End of Support date for Service Desk 4.5 is December 31, 2009. Many customers are already realizing the benefits of Service Manager as a result of requesting the no additional charge license migration.
With December 31 less than twelve months away, HP would like to offer an option to extend support to those customers who could benefit from additional time in their transition to Service Manager. Enclosed in the customer letter please find a description of how to do so and request the Service Manager license migration.
HP and its business partners look forward to working with you and supporting your efforts to move to Service Manager throughout 2009 and 2010.

Former Mercury Customers help with SAID
The Mercury website has been transitioned to the HP Software Support Online (SSO) Portal. Customers have been issued a new Service Agreement ID (SAID) number to replace the formerly used MPN number on the Mercury website. In order to use the online tools at HP SSO, each customer must create a HP Passport account. Once you create this account, please edit your profile and enter the SAID you received.
If you are experiencing difficulty using your Service Agreement Id (SAID) number, please follow the online steps to allow us to research your contract at http://www.hp.com/go/hpsoftware/entitlement/investigation.
- The customer should dial the country phone number located at: http://h20230.www2.hp.com/contact_list.jsp.
- The customer should advise the agent that they are working with their HP contract to resolve issues regarding their SAID and ask the agent to open a Trust case.
- The customer should provide the call receipt agent with the Product name, product number, version and details on the issue, contact information and can provide the expired SAID if they have it.
For more information, please review the list of Frequently asked Questions.
