Environment

Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management Support Pack 1 - ZDM7 SP1
Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management with Support Pack 2 - 10.2 Migration
Novell ZENworks for Desktops 4.0.1 - ZfD4.0.1
Novell ZENworks 6.5 Desktop Management Support Pack 2 - ZDM6.5 SP2

Situation

Migrating ZDM applications to ZCM bundles

Application originally created using NWADMIN

Default System Availability rules for Operating System have not been amended since application was created

Operating System rules are migrated as "Operating System - Windows""=""4.0"

Bundle Icon does not appear for migrated application

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.2.2 - see KB 7004803 "ZENworks 10 Configuration Management 10.2.2 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support

Workaround: Either
  1. Modify the System Requirement before migration (it is not necessary to change any value, just choosing to modify and save the requirement will suffice
    or
  2. Modify the System Requirement after migration, replace "=" with">="
