Situation

Running the February 2015 Imaging Driver Update script on the imaging server or satellite throws the following error.

"Applying Wrong imaging Driver updates"

Resolution

1. Make sure you've downloaded the correct version of the February 2015 Imaging Driver Update for your zone (zenworks11.2.4_MU1_Feb15.zip vs zenworks11.3.2_FRU1_Feb15.zip).

2. If you're applying the correct version of the update and you're still seeing this error, open the ZUpdate.sig on your imaging server.

Windows: %ZENWORKS_HOME%\share\preboot\update\ZUpdate.sig
Linux: /opt/novell/zenworks/preboot/imaging/update/ZUpdate.sig

If your imaging server is running ZCM 11.3.x, make sure the first three lines of the file looks like this:

# Specify the ZEN Imaging client version
[ZEN_CLIENT_VERSION]
113201


If your imaging server is running ZCM 11.2.4 or ZCM 11.2.4 MU1, make sure the first three lines of the file looks like this:

# Specify the ZEN Imaging client version
[ZEN_CLIENT_VERSION]
112407


Save the ZUpdate.sig and re-run the Imaging Driver script.

Cause

The Imaging Driver Update script looks at the third line down in the file to see what version of the update should be applied. The error will be thrown if the ZUpdate.sig reports a different version than the version of the Imaging Driver Update that's trying to apply.
