ZENworks Patch Management Agent Utility
2797
Utility to install/remove/update ZENworks Patch Management Agent 6.4.2.252
This utility has been written by Lumension (Patchlink) but is not supported by them, or by Novell.
You can use this utility to install the ZPM 6.4 Agent version 6.4.2.252 to a PC, or remove the agent, or upgrade to this version.
Command-line options

| /unregister | Removes all old agent data and unregisters the agent from PLUS (probably slower than /remove) |
| /install | Removes all old agent data (if any) and installs the ZPM Update Agent |
| /upgrade | Removes all old agent data and upgrades to the 6.4 ZPM Update Agent (can also be a “downgrade”) |

Using this tool

This installs the 6.4.0.252 agent. Is it OK to use this version for Novells Patch Management and not the 6.4.2.252? The utility does what I want, but I don't want to get started if I need to be installing the 6.4.2.252 Novell agent. What is the differences in the two agents? Thanks for any help you can give. Ken
Big oops, and apology

This was a mistake on my part - Patchlink had shipped the agent utility to me, I'd tested that it did the install, but I didn't verify the agent version. We now have a new one, and that's been placed here on the web site. You should be good to go now.
Orca works well also

there are several ways to install the agent - this utility can help in circumstances where the standard, preferred, method does not work.
