Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.3 Bundles

Situation

Registry edit bundle actions insert the literal ZENworks system variable name instead of the evaluated ZENworks system variable.
It is possible the issue with ZENworks system variables extend beyond registry edit actions.

Resolution

A fix for this issue is intended to be included in a future update to the product: however, in the interim, Novell has made a Patch available for testing, as part of an FTF Roll Up patches collection: it can be obtained at https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=6c6917CRv6U~ as "FTF Roll Up 1 for ZENworks (11 SP3)". This update should only be applied if the symptoms above are being experienced, and are causing problems.
