Environment

Novell ZENworks 7 Linux Management - ZLM7

Situation

Event logs in ZCC aren't populating when a bundle is deployed to a device, but rug bhi shows it installed and zmd-messages.log shows it was installed.

Resolution

  1. In the Configuration tab in the ZCC, select Centralized Message Logging
  2. In the section called Centralized File Log, check the box where it says"Log message to a centralized file if severity is ..." and set it appropriately.
  3. Now go refresh the device and send something to it.

    The logging is off by default.

Additional Information

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Create a Bundle on ZCC
2. Assign the Bundle to workstations
3. Set Deploy and Install schedule
4. Event trigger occurred; Bundle is deployed and installed
5. Check if bundle is installed on a client machine by doing "rug bhi"
6. Check if bundle is installed on a client machine by looking zmd-messages
7. Both step 5 and 6 told "Bundle is successfully installed" but ZCC report doesn't show the message.
