Clarification: ZPM 6.4 general support ends Jan. 18, 2012
A recent e-mail from Novell said that general support ends for all
versions of ZENworks Patch Management 6.4 on January 18, 2012. Does
this mean that on Jan. 19, 2012 we'll stop getting new patches
downloaded to our server? In other words, is Jan. 18, 2012 the drop
dead date for ZPM 6.4 and the server will no longer function after that?

Opus83,
a good question, and luckily I thought of it and spoke directly to
Lumension about it :)
Patches will still continue to be available dur...
ZPM 6.4 End of General Support TODAYAs I wrote in the "sticky" note for this forum
On January 18 2012, ZENworks Patch Management 6.4 reaches end of General Support (see Novell Support | Support Lifecycle )
From that time onwards, the product itself will not be updated, unless a critical security issue is found.
However, patch content (new patches) will continue to be available for customers with a valid subscription, for the remainder of the Extended Support period (which ends January 18 2013).
That day has come - I would encourage everyone to consider moving to ZCM Patch Management ASAP

ZPM 6.4 sp2
When ZPM 6.4 SP2 goes from General Support to Extended Support, will
patches still be downloaded into the repository? When will the product
flat out stop serving its purpose? Migrating to ZCM 11 has been a
disaster thus far.

Patched 6.5.4 with 6.5.6 but agents are still running 6.5.4I recently attempted to patch GroupWise 6.5.4 with the most recent patch
6.5.6. After the update finished, I restarted the server, checked all
agents and noticed that they all were still running version 6.5.4.
However, the first time that I attempted the patch, and I got to the end
of the installation, I chose the option to automatically update the
startup files, and to start the PO and the Domain (after clicking
finish). When the domain and the PO started on the server (after I
clicked on finish), they where running 6.5.6, but when I restarted the
server and checked the ver...
CHello,
We are currently running the Agent version:
Client Agent: 6.4.2.253
Detection Agent: 6.4.2.253
Patch Management Server: 6.4.2.1378
Control Panel: 6.4.2.253
Notification Manager: 6.4.2.252
If i deploy the new patch: "C - ZENworks Patch Management Agent Upgrade for Windows from 6.0 or higher to 6.4.2.378" it is installed fine (status: green), but after a reboot of this workstation the Client Agent is not changed and still 6.4.2.253.
I checked GravitixService.exe and DAgent.exe, and these versions are still 6.4.2.253.
So why is...

ZPM 6.4 patching SLESSomeone has bought ZPM 6.4, to patch SLES servers.
How is the patch stream for SLES? Beyond what you would have gotten out
of Yast's Online Update from a repository, how much else does it offer?
Geoffrey,
automation, I guess - and Novell would prefer you to use ZLM :) You
know you have to buy special licences to use ZPM with Linux/Unix?

Migrating from ZPM 6.4 SP2 Update 4 to ZPM 11
Greetings,
Our enterprise is running a standalone installation of Zenworks Patch
Management v6.4 SP2 Update 4 on a Windows 2003 R2 server with a mixture
of v6.4.2.420 agents on XP machines and v6.4.2.504 agents on Win7
machines, all within an Active Directory domain.
We do understand that Zenworks Patch Management v11 (we intend to
migrate to the standalone product, not the Zenworks 11 suite) is a
complete rip-and-replace for ZPM v6.4 SP2u4.
As we have 1700+ machines, it goes without saying that we want to
proceed carefully and properly during the migration. Our main focus is...
B
Recently rebuilt our ZPM server from scratch (it's at version 6.4.2.1549
currenlty) and came across something a bit strange. The following vuln.
is listed for the ZPM server:
B - Novell ZENworks Patch Management Agent 6.4 SP2 Server Side Update
(QFE) (See Notes) (Rev 2)
Yet when you walk through the deployment wizard it shows the following
name for this patch:
B - Novell ZENworks Patch Management Agent 6.4 SP1b Server Side Update
Is this a typo in the packaging of the patch or is the patch not what
it appears to be? I'm a little hesitant to apply it to the server ...

Hello,
Should I be seeing this patch in my vulnerabilities for my PL server? =
Server agent version is 6.3.2.858. I don't see it.
thanks

Zenworks Patch Management/PatchLink 6.4This weekend I updated out 6.3 system to the 6.4 software and everything
seems to be working fine, except I can't find a package/vulnerabilities
that shows the new agent (6.4.2.245) to be installed. Currently most of my
agents are at 6.3.2.858. My Subscription Service History shows
vulnerabilities/licenses/packages status as all complete and successful is
True. I can install the new agent manually without problem. Anybody have
any ideas what to try next?

ZPM 6.4 to ZPM 11
We have a standalone ZPM Server (Version: 6.4.2.1592) and want to
upgrade to 11 before January. I opened a support ticket asking support
what are the best practices for the upgrade and got an answer that
guided me to the Zenworks 11 documentation. The only information I got
out of it was that 6.4 can't be upgraded to 11. The question is, what
do I do, start over? Do I then have to get a new server activation code
and re-apply all the licenses? Am I missing something?
