Environment

Novell ZENworks 7.2 Linux Management - ZLM7.2

Novell ZENworks Linux Management Linux Management 7 - ZLM7

Situation

ZENworks Linux Management 7 to ZENworks Linux Managment 7 (or 7.2 to 7.2) mirror operations do not take the bundle attributes into consideration with computing the delta between the Source and Target servers. For example, an end user could change the install flags on a package. Currently this change would not get mirrored as the delta comparison is based on the rpm differences.
