Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.1 ZENworks Control Center - ZCC

Situation

After upgrading to ZCM 11.2.1, all bundles have "Show Bundle Activity" reset to "no"

Administrator notes may be blank

Contact details may be blank

Icons in ZCC may not display correctly (extension may show as ".ABC" instead of ".ICO"

"" is unchecked

Resolution

This is fixed in version 11.2.2 - see KB 7010757 "ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.2 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=7010757

Workaround: if it is not possible to upgrade to ZCM 11.2.2 at this time, in the interim, Novell has made a Patch available for testing, as part of a Monthly patch update: it can be obtained at https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=t9vbJXG-P0g~ as "ZCM 11.2.1 Monthly Update 1 - see TID 7010464". This update should only be applied if the symptoms above are being experienced, and are causing problems.

Please report any problems encountered when using this Patch, by using the feedback link on this TID.

Additional Information

Note: the data in the database is unchanged, and devices will show the progress window as before. If, however, the bundle is updated and republished, the "no" setting will be published in the bundle.  So, ensure that if a bundle is updated and republished, that the "Show Bundle Activity" setting is correct at that time. Ditto for the other affected settings.
