Environment
Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.2 Inventory
Situation
After upgrading the zone to 11.2.1 the inventory *.xml files on the server in /var/opt/novell/zenworks/collection/inventory are not processing as they should.
In the loader-messages.log the inventory process is trying to load the same *.xml file multiple times with no success, then there are no more mentions in the log of trying to process the files. The files are still being uploaded to the primary servers, but they are not being processed.
