Environment


Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.1 ZENworks Control Center - ZCC

Situation

In ZCC, navigating to Download ZENworks Tools > Administrative Tools

Links for ZAMmigration.exe, ZENmigration.exe, zlmmigration.zip all point to http://srm-build-stage-1.labs.blr.novell.com/builds/ZCM/MigrationUtils_11.2.1/latest/ which cannot be accessed

Resolution

This is fixed in version 11.2.2 - see KB 7010757 "ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.2 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=7010757

Workaround: if it is not possible to upgrade to ZCM 11.2.2 at this time, in the interim, Novell has made a Patch available for testing, as part of a Monthly patch update: it can be obtained at https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=t9vbJXG-P0g~ as "ZCM 11.2.1 Monthly Update 1 - see TID 7010464". This update should only be applied if the symptoms above are being experienced, and are causing problems.

Please report any problems encountered when using this Patch, by using the feedback link on this TID.

The fix corrects the locations in ZCC, but the files themselves are also available at https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=7Uu2Ngvn_6I~ as "ZCM 11.2.1 Migration Utilities - see TID 7010494"

Cause

This was missed in testing, because the link works from inside the Novell network!
