The Inventory Agent failed after guid.zfs is accidentally deleted when the ZENworks Server Management service is running

Explanation:  If sys:\system\guid.zfs is accidentally deleted when the ZENworks Server Management service is running, the Inventory Agent fails.

Action:  Do the following:

  1. Stop the ZENworks service by entering exit at the ZENworks Server Management console prompt.

  2. Stop the Inventory Agent by entering sys:\system\invagentstop.ncf at the server console prompt.

  3. Start the ZENworks service by entering sys:\zenworks\zfs at the server console prompt.

The next schedule that enforces the Inventory Agent is launched successfully and guid.zfs is automatically created.
