Over the last decade, Novell ZENworks has developed a reputation as one of the industry's most complete and capable solutions for centrally configuring and managing endpoints in complex and heterogeneous networking environments. With Novell ZENworks, thousands of organizations have discovered the benefits of using a policy and user-based approach to simplify and automate software and patch deployment, asset tracking, endpoint security, OS migration and a long list of other routine endpoint management tasks.

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.

This small tool will give you the following advantages:

• No need to unregister from the zone, before resealing the workstation.
• No more messing around with various ZAC commands.
• Your workstations will always have the latest version of the agent, that your infrastructure supports, when reinstalled.

The Novell Technical Training webinar for the month of July was held today. The three sessions were recorded for you to view at your convenience. To access the recordings visit the links below:

In ZCM when specifying a "Launch Executable" action you can specify success return codes. These are codes that an executable (i.e. notepad.exe) will return when the executable is finished.

This is all great except that it can be difficult knowing what return code was returned. This executable will report the return code so that you can easily add the value to the "Success Return Code" values.

This is a very simple executable that will run on any OS. Using it is as simple as launchReturnCode.exe notepad.exe.
