ZENworks 7 Desktop Management on Linux Support Pack 1 - ZDML7 SP1
Automatic Workstation Import
Situation
If you try
to import to a Linux server using zwsreg, if the workstation name
contains commas instead of periods, it is ignored.
For example:
if you run workstation import by using a command line such as
zwsreg -importserver 151.155.169.153 -importws cn=testwks,ou=testimport,o=novell
then the
specified name is ignored, and the name is generated from the
import policy.
Resolution
To obtain access
to a hot patch with the fix for this problem, follow the
instructions in KB 3484245 "Updates to Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop
Management" which can be found athttps://www.novell.com/support
Additional Information
Using LDAP-style
naming convention with commas "," is only valid when
importing to a Linux server, it is not valid for NetWare or Windows
servers. On NetWare and Windows servers, periods "." must be used in the
name.
