Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management with Support Pack 1 - 10.1 Inventory
Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management with Support Pack 2 - 10.2 Inventory

Situation

If the IP address for a NIC (Network Interface Card) changes, instead of replacing the old IP address, Inventory adds the new address, so the NIC shows two IP addresses.

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.2.1 - see KB 7003766 "ZENworks 10 Configuration Management 10.2.1 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support
