  • 03-Jun-2014
  • 21-Jul-2014

Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.3
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2

Situation

Since 11.2 bundles with a schedule for Recurring/Days of Week start time where next start time is less than 14 hours will come due with a schedule of start time plus one week.

Example (from zmd-messages.log):

 [Scheduler -- DailySchedule: The initial due time is: Thursday, April 17, 2014 3:15:00 AM]

When the next due is really one week prior as assignment was first seen on April 9.
