Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management
Novell ZENworks 10.0.1 Configuration Management

Situation

Default agents on zenworks-setup page are not updated to latest agents after system update.
Deploying agents installs 10.0.1 agent, then later it is upgraded to 10.0.2

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.0.3 - see KB 3486285 "Updates to ZENworks 10 Configuration Management" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support

Additional Information

Normally after a ZENworks 10 Primary Server is updated via System Update, the agents should check-in and automatically pull down the updated agent version from the server that had the System Update, but if there are problems with getting the updated agent to the workstations, there needs to be a way to manually pull down the agents from the http://localhost/zenworks-setup page.
