Environment

Situation

After upgrading to 11.2.3a some device inventory files are failing to process on the ZCM server. In the loader-messages.log there is the following error:
"[DEBUG] [5/20/13 11:23:01 AM] [] [Loader.InventoryStorerAMModule] [53] [] [InventoryStorerModule: could not deserialize wif, error:found </NetworkSoftwareUsage> instead of element http://novell.com/zenworks/inventory/wif:UsageEvent:java.io.EOFException: found </NetworkSoftwareUsage> instead of element http://novell.com/zenworks/inventory/wif:UsageEvent ..."
