Environment

Novell ZENworks 7.5 Asset Management - ZAM7.5
Novell ZENworks 7.5 Asset Management - ZAM7.5 IR7

Situation

When creating a Network Discovery task, if the schedule is set to By the Hour, then when the task completes, it shows in the tasks list with the wrong date/time, i.e., the time it was originally scheduled for, not the new time which should be 1 or more hours later.

Resolution

Fixed in ZENworks Asset Management 7.5 Interim Release 10 or newer

Interim Releases can be scheduled to run automatically or can be downloaded manually at https://download.novell.com/patch/finder. The Interim releases can be set up within the ZAM Manager for the Task server to check the site on a scheduled basis, and download and apply them automatically. Please refer to the Help Section details of how to set up automatic downloads if desired.

Each interim release is cumulative. If Interim Release 10 is not available due to a newer interim release being placed on the website, be assured that the code needed is in the later release.
