Hotfix 72040 for NetIQ AppManager Repository Database (QDB) (NETIQKB72040)

The NEtIQ AppManager Management Server stops inserting data into the AppManager Repository and becomes unresponsive to Agents.

Virtual Exchange nodes appear grayed out after restarting services even though jobs on the node agents are running correctly.

The hotfix installer for Hotfix 71992 for the AppManager Repository (QDB) appears hung and does not display an error after you select a target SQL server.

The first data points from multiple data streams can all appear to come from a single data stream or can all be rejected.

The Web Console displays Not Discovered and the Operator Console Details tab is empty for virtual servers and clusters.

Data points containing XML details are not saved and not displayed in graphs.

Redundant data causes Control Center Repository (NQCCDB) and AppManager Repository synchronization errors.

Deleting an object from a virtual cluster tree view removes the Monitoring Policy Master jobs running over the virtual cluster and leaves only the Monitoring Policy Jobs for physical nodes.

These issues are corrected in Hotfix 72040 for the AppManager 7.0.x Repository Database (QDB).  The Hotfix can be downloaded here.
