Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 10.3
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11

Situation

LDAP Import task is failing when being run. In the mapping section of the LDAP Import task, user data is being imported.  If the device used in the Key mapping does not have a PrimaryUserOID, the user mapping information will not be copied over. 

Resolution

For ZCM 10.3: This is fixed in version 10.3.4 - see KB 7008244 "ZENworks Configuration Management 10.3.4 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support
 
For ZCM 11: This is fixed in version 11.2 - see KB 7010044 "ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://www.novell.com/support
 
With this fix, if the PrimaryUserOID is null and user data is being imported, the import task will create a PrimaryUserOID for the data to use for the import.
