Resolution

1. Open regedit, and go to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\
2. Check the ImagePath keys in both SQLANYs_ZENAuditDatastore and SQLANYs_ZENDatastore
3. Correct one or both entries so that the values in the keys are:

For SQLANYs_ZENAuditDatastore's ImagePath:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\share\asa\Bin64\dbsrv12.exe" -hvSQLANYs_ZENAuditDatastore

For SQLANYs_ZENDatastore's ImagePath:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\share\asa\Bin64\dbsrv12.exe" -hvSQLANYs_ZENDataStore
