Environment

Novell ZENworks 10 Configuration Management with Support Pack 3 - 10.3 Installation - Agent
Novell ZENworks 7.3 Linux Management - ZLM7.3

Situation

When removing the Satellite 10.3.0 agents from a Linux server, the uninstall routine removes parts of the system mono and breaks the ZLM 7.3 agents.
 
ZLM 7.3 agent is broken after demoting a Satellite server.

Resolution

This is fixed in version 10.3.2 - see KB 7007237 "ZENworks Configuration Management 10.3.2 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at Novell Support 
 
Because of changes in the way that th  install works in ZCM 11, this issue is not present in ZCM 11.
