Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2.1

Situation

Device or user has assigned a substantial amount of bundles having quite some content

Time from user entering his credentials to bundle icons getting available is taking longer. It has been seen to increase from 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

ZCM agent is not following the random time to wait device refresh setting but connects to configured/available services on initial refresh
