7.0 Known Issues

Novell ZENworks Personality Migration

• When you redirect files and folders on the destination, the Undo log for that migration shows the original path for the files and folders. When you undo the migration using that undo log, the redirected files are removed from their new location.

• If the Windows firewall is enabled on your Windows XP SP2 computer, you get a message indicating Novell ZENworks Personality Migration cannot establish a connection between the source and destination computers in a real-time migration. Windows XP SP2 has a built-in firewall. The firewall is on by default, and blocks communication between the XP SP2 system and any other computer. This prevents a real-time migration from connecting. You must first turn off the firewall setting before you perform the real-time migration. To turn off the XP firewall:

  1. Select Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet Connections, Select Network Connections.

  2. Right-click the network connection you are using for Novell ZENworks Personality Migration and select Properties.

  3. In the Advanced tab turn off the Internet Connection Firewall.

  4. Close the control panel and start your migration.

• If the Windows firewall is enabled on your Windows Vista computer, you get a message (for a real-time migration) indicating that Windows firewall has blocked some features of this program and has also blocked this program from accepting incoming network connections. If you unblock this program, it will be unblocked on all the private networks that you connect to. This indicates that Novell ZENworks Personality Migration cannot establish a connection between the source and destination computers in a real-time migration.

  Windows Vista has a built-in firewall. The firewall is on by default and blocks communication between the Vista system and any other computer. This prevents a real-time migration from connecting. You must first turn off the firewall setting before you perform the real-time migration. To turn off the Vista firewall for this program, you can use one of the following two alternatives:

  In the first alternative, follow these steps to turn off the Windows Vista firewall before running Novell ZENworks Personality Migration:

  1. Select Start, Control Panel, Windows Firewall, Select Change settings.

  2. Select the Exceptions tab, Select Add Program and add Novell ZENworks Personality Migration and select its check box if it is not already checked. By default, the check box is always checked.

  3. Close the Control Panel and start your migration.

  In the second alternative, the above mentioned message prompts you to choose from the two options: Keep blocking and Unblock. You must select the Unblock option and continue the migration. It will never display this message in future.

• If you are creating a revision of a DNA file, and the only changes made to a document are NTFS security changes, a revision of the file is not saved in the DNA file. To save the new NTFS security changes, you must make a change to the contents of the document.

• With Windows 95 you may not automatically have a compatible version of Winsock available. There is a service pack available online on the Windows 95 downloads page at http://www.microsoft.com for upgrading Windows 95 sockets.

• When using templates for creating a DNA file where the template uses filters, and also omits some folders, the template merges the omit filters incorrectly.

• On Windows Vista, if you log in as a non-administrator user and try to perform the current user migration, some of the settings may not migrate. This happens because by default non-administrator users do not have access privileges on the Program Files folder, Windows folder, and some of the registry keys (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE). To complete the migration successfully, you must log in as an administrator or as a user with access privileges on these resources.

Internationalized Novell ZENworks Personality Migration

• You must use the same operating system language to migrate application settings between different languages. For example, you can migrate a Japanese version of Office to an English version if both are installed on a Japanese operating system.

• On English Windows XP, if MUI is installed and Japanese is set as the default user interface language, you cannot use Novell ZENworks Personality Migration controls in the user interface.

• You must enter file names and paths in the user interface and on the command line using the operating system language. For example, if you are using a German operating system, you must enter file names and paths in the user interface or the command line using German characters.

• If you create a filter in the Novell ZENworks Personality Migration user interface that contains Unicode characters, the files associated with the filter are not migrated. The work around is to create the filter in the DNA Template Editor and perform the migration using the template. The reason the template works and the Novell ZENworks Personality Migration user interface created filter does not work is because a specific DLL must be installed. This DLL is installed with the Migration Toolkit, but not with Novell ZENworks Personality Migration.

Spanning

Windows 95 does not support the ability to save spanned DNA files to UNC paths. If you want to save a spanned DNA file to a UNC path from a Windows 95 system, you must first map the destination drive to the local machine. Then you can save the spanned DNA file to the mapped drive.

DNA Director

DNA Director does not support creating the migration of data directories to an HTTP path.

DNA Studio

• The debugging feature in DNA Studio is not functional.

• When syntax checking scripts, you might receive a message indicating that the process cannot check the script because it cannot create symbols. Check the syntax for a missing semi-colon (;). DNA Studio reports a syntax error, and this is not a failure to create symbols.

• When working in the DNA Studio workspace area, items containing Unicode characters might not insert correctly if you perform the insert using the menu. You must manually add the Unicode items to the script.

8.0 International Support

An internationalized product is an English product that runs correctly on local language versions of the required operating system and required third-party products, and supports local language data for input and output. Internationalized products also support the ability to specify local language conventions for date, time, currency and number formats.

A translated product (sometimes referred to as a localized product) is an internationalized product that includes local language support for the product's user interface, online help and other documentation, as well as local language default settings for date, time, currency, and number formats.
