Resolution

ZLM 7.2 shipped before SLES 10 SP1 and the install of ZLM 7.2 was not tested against SLES 10 SP1.

The install of ZLM to SLES 10 SP1 is now supported with ZLM 7.2 IR1 (full install, refreshed ISO, https://download.novell.com/index.jsp),see ZLM 7.2 Installation documentation, System Requirements, ZENworks Server Requirements: 'Additionally, SLES 10 SP1 is supported in the ZENworks 7.2 Linux Management with Interim Release 1 (IR1).'.
