Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.1 Registration
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.1 ZENworks Control Center - ZCC

Situation

A dynamic group that has a filter set to a certain Product Name does not remove the members once the Product is removed from the device.  Clicking on the Preview Members button shows the correct number.

Resolution

This is fixed in version 11.2.1 - see KB 7010042 "ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.1 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=7010042

  5. Go to the Dynamic Group again
  6. Recalculate the Membership
  7. Nothing happens
  8. Go to the filter tab and click preview members (note this figure is correct)
