Having problems getting the zenworks imaging tool to work with our new Dell
GX320's.

Trying to make a base image. The whole process seems to work, all process
work. Discs downloaded, etc, gets to the end and says workstation has not
work to do. I check the properties of wrst object and the take an image on
next boot is checked. There are no describe -603 errors in the log. I have
pasted the log below.

Can you tell what the error is and how I can remidie it?

I have found the fix to my own problem.

To recap the symptoms:

- Under new SuSE-based materials, I found that after applying a FAT32 image,
if I mounted the volume under Linux and attempted to modify text files (e.g.
sysprep.inf), the files were suddenly case-sensitive where they never had
been before.

- Furthermore (and not previously posted here), I later found that
(apparently) anything that interacted with the file allocation table on that
volume resulted in problems. If, for example, while under Linux, I created
a new file on the FAT32 volume, when I later arrived in Windows, the file
would be interestingly corrupt. I could see it when I did a directory, but
if I tried to open the file, Windows would insist that it did not exist.
This was also true if I renamed an existing file (under Linux). The
resultant file was similarly inaccessible once I arrived in Windows. The
only way I could reliably create files on the FAT32 volume was by applying
an image (and then not renaming anything).

Converting the volume to NTFS fixed all the broken files.

The cause:

Hi

Has anyone got any idea what I need to do to with Zenworks after I
change the IP address of the Windows 2003 server that it's been
installed on. After changing the IP of the server and rebooting
Zenworks still refers to the old IP address. Currently running ZFD 6.5
SP2 Hotfix 4 on a Windows 2003 R2 server.

I've had a look around for a TID but can't seem to find anything that
is relevant to Windows servers. Are there some configuration files that
need to be changed or is there a simple web interface that I can hit
that will do the trick?

Many thanks

Craig

We run Sp2 and didnt have any problem with this model from the getgo.

Thanks for the comprehensive and highly specific reply!

What is this number supposed to govern? Is it:

- Number of seconds, total, allowed for attempting to download root?
- Number of seconds allowed in any given retry attempt?
- Something else I haven't thought of?

I ask because it doesn't appear to have any effect whatever value I put
here.

What variable governs this? I don't see anything in linuxrc.config that
appears to be setting this value.

VMWare Server 1.01 ZEN Imaging 6.5

Hello,

I am trying to build up a small VM test environment on my laptop. It would
save me a lot of time if I could use our existing zen images.

Can any one tell me what I need to do in order to use ZEN imaging in VM
(*preferably without having to compile anything*)? Right now I'm thinking
that a floppy or CD image would be the easiest method. The virtual NIC is
showing up as an AMD am79C970A.

Thanks, Iain

yes... so you mount the fat32 partition and make some changes to the text
files via linux commands, right?

could you post an example of this?
