Confirm that the primary servers and the external database server have times that are in sync.  If this is the case, and the error happens anyway, Workaround:  Restart the ZENworks services or reboot the primary server.

A bug in the SQL function that was used by ZCM to check time differences meant that the wrong result may be returned when there is a change in the daylight saving status.

 

Also a bug was found for after updating locations, the current time was reset as UTC time on the primary java instance.
