Environment
Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management
Situation
After installing an MSI from a Windows Bundle the ZENworks agent receives a 3010 returncode back from msiexec. The MSI will provide this returncode if the admin adds the /norestart option on an MSI that needs a reboot.
The /norestart get's added to the MSI with the intention to skip the reboot during the install, the ZENworks agent however will see this return code and will reboot the workstation with no warning
