Environment

Novell ZENworks 11 Configuration Management
Novell ZENworks 11 Configuration Management Support Pack 1 - ZCM 11 SP1
Novell ZENworks 11 Configuration Management Support Pack 2 - ZCM 11 SP2

Situation

When creating an Administrator Group in ZCC, Inventory Report Rights and Asset Management Report Rights are not available to be configured for that group.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is intended to be included in a future update to the product: however, in the interim, Novell has made a Patch available for testing, as part of a Monthly patch update: it can be obtained at https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=EWuCrZ4JAO0~ as "ZCM 11.2 Monthly Update 1 - see TID 7004550". This update should only be applied if the symptoms above are being experienced, and are causing problems.

Please report any problems encountered when using this Patch, by using the feedback link on this TID.

Workaround:

Rights can be configured for individual Administrator Users through:

ZCC > Configuration > [Administrator Username] > Rights tab > Inventory Report Rights

or

ZCC > Configuration > [Administrator Username] > Rights tab > Asset Management Report Rights
