Environment

Novell ZENworks 7.5 Asset Management - ZAM7.5

Situation

Portable collector fails
ERROR: "There is not enough space on the [drive letter]:\Portable Collector drive to copy the data files. You must make space on the [drive letter]:\Portable Collector drive and rescan."

Resolution

Fixed in ZAM 7.5 IR 5.

If downloading the Interim Release manually from Novell Downloads, select ZENworks Asset Management from the product drop down field, and then hit search and go to the Patches tab. The Interim releases can also be set up within the ZAM Manager for the Task server to check the site on a scheduled basis, and download and apply them automatically. Please refer to the Help Section for details of how to set up automatic downloads if desired.

Each interim release is cumulative. If Interim Release 5 is not available due to a newer interim release being placed on the website, be assured that the code needed is in the later release.

Additional Information

In this particular case, this error is not actually indicative of insufficient space.
