The error above means the agent failed to start while loading Eclipse Runtime libraries.

1. Remove Eclipse Runtime cache directories:
   rm -rf /opt/novell/zenworks/zmd/java/lib/configuration/org.eclipse*
2. Restart ZENworks Xplat (Cross-platform) agent:
   /etc/init.d/novell-zenworks-xplatzmd restart
