How to digitally sign a YUM repository created with ZCM11
With ZENworks Configuration Management 11 and higher, you have the ability to create a YUM repository. This repository can be used to patch a server when there is no agent installed. By default these YUM repositories are not digitally signed and extra actions are needed.

How to start the ZENworks 11.1 imaging from a USB drive instead of using PXE or the boot CD
This is my guide to create a ZENworks 11.1 imaging boot USB Pen Drive. Not a lot of things are needed before you can use a USB Pen Drive instead of the original boot CD. You can then image as you normally do, run a script from the USB Pen Drive or even pull down an image from it.

ZENworks Configuration Management - Server Log Parser
Updated: The ZENworks Configuration Management (ZCM) Log Parser was featured in the Advanced Server Performance Troubleshooting session at BrainShare 2011.
The purpose of the log parser is to be able to quickly get a high level view of the activity on the primary servers. It's useful in spotting trends, times of high utilization, response time changes, etc. This tool can facilitate baselining an environment in a "normal load" situation for comparison in case of performance issues in the zone later on.
