Stubborn Patches, Corrupt Database?
I took the opportunity of a 3 day weekend to try to run my building with Patch Management and I'm running into a problem with some stubborn patches that I'm not even sure why they started showing up to begin with. I've been working on the backlog of my patches for months now, and aside from some troublesome systems and obscure patches the bulk of my patches are dated late 2011 to early 2012. I all of a sudden had MS 934395 Update for Office 2007 dated May 18, 2007 show up. Office is an application that for the most part has been working great with Patch Mangement and to see an old patch like this even after applying SP3 is a bit surprising to me. When I tried to apply it on the 34 systems that it said it needed to be applied on, ever single one resulted in a quick processing and ended in an error, and the systems all show a partial complete with a remediate.exe Exit Code 144 error. My question is two parts. If I just have a stubborn patch, what is the best way to troubleshoot it to find out why ZPM doesn't like to deploy it. My other question is, is there a way to do a zen database consistency check to see if an entry had become corrupt making this old patch suddenly appear? I've also run Windows Update on some of these systems and they are coming up without any available updates even though ZPM shows that other MS updates that appear in MS Update on other systems need to be applied. -- marklar23 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marklar23, reading your post, it seem that this is Patch Management in ZCM that you are using: this forum is for ZPM 6.4, which is quite a different beast. There are Patch Management forums for ZCM 10 and ZCM 11, which would be better places to ask. However the answers are: to check why, look in %zenworks_home%\zpm\debug.log Have you applied the relevant server-side and agent-side Patch Management patches from http://download.novell.com/patch/finder ? No, there's no particular consistence check, the patch lists are rebuilt when the scheduled update takes place. -- Shaun Pond

OK, this is advance warning that I'm about to be reposting a bunch of patches of mine which appear to have succumbed to Warnock's Dilemma.

The last one is rather larger, and consists of a greatly expanded set of tests for PerlString's, plus a bunch of bug-fixes. I'd be grateful if Jeff or Dan could take a look at this, as I have the feeling that a lot of the scalar PMCs are going to need similar fixes. Simon ...
