Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management

Situation

ERROR (on ZCC):  "An unknown error has occurred during the deployment. Check the system-update.log on the device for details "
 
But no system-update.log file is found for this version of system update (logs\GUID of update location).  Where would the logging be in this case?

Resolution

If the system update log is not yet created, set the device's Z Icon log setting to debug and above.  For Linux server, use ZCC to set agent logging to debug or above or run zac log level debug .  Then run zac ref and look at zmd-messages.log for entries "SystemUpdateModule ".
