Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 10.3

Situation

Setting an inventory scan schedule relative to event (for example device refresh) fails to rescan.  It will scan once when the schedule is set or changed, but not thereafter.

Resolution

Windows:

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

Linux:
This is fixed in version 11.2.4 - see KB 7012027 "ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.4 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at http:////support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=7012027 



Workaround:  Use a non relative scan schedule such as weekly, days of week etc.  For 10.3.4 only, if using days of week see also fix for TID 7002946.
