Environment
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2 Imaging
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10
Situation
When an image file is created using a bootcd and img, the file stored on the image server is owned by root. Because the image file is owned by root, using Image Explorer will not allow a non-root user to save changes to the image file.
Resolution
This is fixed in version 11.2.2 - see TID 7010757 "ZENworks
Configuration Management 11.2.2 - update information and list of fixes"
which can be found at http://www.novell.com/support/search.do?usemicrosite=true&searchString=7010757
Workarounds:
Workarounds:
- Open the image file using image explorer and do a "save as" and create an additional image file.
- log into the ZCM server as root and use the chmod command to change the group rights to read write.
