Environment

Novell Privileged User Manager 2.2.2
Novell Privileged User Manager 2.3.0

Situation

Recently upgraded from NPUM 2.2.x to NPUM 2.3.0
Transactions are enabled in Command Control

When editing a Command Control Rule with Transactions enabled AND before you commit the transaction,  the name of the rule appears as the following (from within the GUI)

"[type Function],[type Function],[type Function],[type Function]"

Note: If you commit the transaction, ALL rules will be lost.

Also seen in the unifid.log

Warning, Failed to parse XML: XML parser error code: syntax error (2)

Resolution

Apply NPUM 2.3.0-2 to keep this error from happening if transactions are enabled.

If on NPUM 2.3.0 with Transactions enabled, cancel the transaction, then upgrade to 2.3.0-2
