Importing bundles exported with older ZCM version can fail

Importing bundle exported from older ZCM version into newer ZCM version zone
Bundle exports from ZCM 10.3.x and 11.0 can fail to import to ZCM 11.1 zone

zman bundle-create(bc) command displays error:
"...
Error: An internal error occurred. Please see the zman log for full stack trace
..."

Since bundle meta-data can drastically change between ZCM versions, it is not guaranteed that exports from older ZCM versions can always import to the latest ZCM version (or vice-versa).

Trying to import a ZCM 10.3.x bundle with Install Directory actions into ZCM 11.1 fails since the zman bundle-create command expects a new feature to be configured in the bundle.xml called CreateAsSingleContent.

There related error message in zman.log is:
"...

Here a sample from an bundle with an Install Directory action exported from a ZCM 10.3.3 zone, prepared for being imported into a ZCM 11.1 zone.

Adding the line
"...
<CreateAsSingleContent xmlns="https://www.novell.com/ZENworks/Actions/v1.0">false</CreateAsSingleContent>
..."
fixes the issue that the bundle did not import into the ZCM 11.1 zone.
