Environment

Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management on Linux - ZDML7 Imaging
Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management on Linux - ZDML7 PreBoot Services (PXE)

Situation

Novell-zimgserv or novell-proxydhcp will not start on boot

Resolution

To see if novell-zmgserv will automatically start or not, run this:

chkconfig - l novell-zmgserv

It might show you this:

novell-zmgserv 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off

This means it won’t start automatically on boot up.

To get novell-zmgserv to automatically start on boot up, run this:

chkconfig novell-zmgserv on

To verify it’ll automatically start, run this again:

chkconfig - l novell-zmgserv

It will show you this:

novell-zmgserv 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

Which means it'll start automatically at run levels 2-5

You can run chkconfig the same way with novell-proxydhcp, which is the PXE service.
