Running zwsreg.exe as an app object or schedule that runs everytime nal refreshes.

Hi,
I'm not a 'heavy' novell user. I do the lower level things. But
here's my problem that I can't for the life of me figure out.
Our workstation registration process runs on login. It will remove the
workstation every 40 days. It is a large manufacturing fascility.
Many of the tools don't allow the workstations to log out and back in
within that time frame.
I'm trying to figure out a way to 'schedule' the zwsreg.exe to run as a
normal user in the background and unregister if it's registered, then
register the workstation so we can remote connect to them without
running into workstations that have become 'unregistered'. I can run
the zwsreg from the command line easy enough. But it seems there are
problems with either mapping or file rights when i try to put it in a
batch file or run it right as an app object. Has anyone ran into this
situation before and found a solution?
I'd have no problem I guess using the workstation scheduler, but that
doesn't have rights when a user is logged in to register :(
Thanks,
Bill w.

Do you have these shop floor workstations under a separate workstation
policy? You could add a "Scheduled Action Policy" for those workstations
with zwsreg as the action, and schedule it to run, say weekly.
Or you could just move those workstations into a different container that
the workstation removal policy doesn't specify... that way the won't be
removed every 40 days... or ever.

  • App object run order

    Is there any way to set the order in which app objects are run on the workstation other than using the "Wait on Force Run" and "Determine Force Run Order" options?
    Thanks...

    In Short, If you chain apps, when you launch one it will ensure all of the
    others are installed as well.
    Example - You might have a bunch of apps that point to spreadsheet files and
    you may link/chain those to an Office Bundle so that if Office is not
    installed, it will instll office and then open the spreadsheet.
    Or you may have an application that requires .NET and JAVA. Chain your apps
    to your .NET and JAVA installs and when you install your app that requires
    the others, it will install those as well.

  • Key.getCode() problems on PC and published .exe, .swf and .app

    Hi!
    I have a kind of unusual problem... Im building a prototype for a UI wich you can navigate around in. And we use a mockup-prototype-model with a numeric keyboard built in and connected trough USB to fetch keypresses and use that as a joystick to navigate around and get a feeling how it would feel like to navigate around using a joystick in your hands.
    The problem is that it sends kind of unusual keypresses from the joystick.
    Everything works fine when I test the movie in Flash CS5 on a mac (cmd + enter). But not on a PC or in all of the published modes (.exe, .swf or .app).
    The codes I use in my if statements to navigate that doesnt work is:
    Key.getCode() == 188, Key.getCode() == 74 and Key.getCode() == 54
    Today I use a double setup of keys so that I can use my keyboard on the computer as a backup to navigate around. And those keypresses works fine without problems. It is just those three (188, 74 and 54) that doesnt work.
    example code:
    keyListener.onKeyUp = function() {
        trace("UP -> Code: "+Key.getCode()+"\tASCII: "+Key.getAscii()+"\tKey: "+chr(Key.getAscii()));
    if((freezeActive == true && Key.getCode() == 188) || (freezeActive == true && Key.getCode() == 72)){
                        freezeNavigateLeft();
    Key.addListener(keyListener);
    I have made sure that flash has focus when ive tried this. But it is so odd that it works when I test the movie but not when I run it on a PC or in any of the published applications...
    Have any of you encountered that some keypresses doesnt work?
    Best regards
    Joel

    Think ive solved it!
    It seems like the PC recieves different signals from the input device in published mode then on the mac... so I had to trace them out in debugmode one by one and got different signals. So now it works!

  • Changing App Objects in bulk?

    Hi,
    I have a need to do a couple operations on all of our ZENworks 4
    application objects.
    I need to rename the object name as well as add an environment variable to
    the Availability attribute.
    Does anyone know of a utility that will allow me to do this across our
    800+ app objects?
    I'm guessing for the renames I could probably get a one of the older "Cool
    Solutions" commandline utils to get a text file export list of all the AOs
    and then run that through a script with a util to rename.
    I would think I'm not the only person who has had need of something like
    this though and hopefully there is something out there to make it a little
    easier.
    Thanks for any help!

    It may be shameless, but I've used the tool to updated 1000s of apps at
    once.
    It was the only solution I found that came with sanity.

  • Error: Component failed to run due to a Object Package scheduling failure

    Hi,
    BusinessObjects XI R2 SP 5, FP 5.1
    I am trying to schedule a group of reports (crystal reports) via a package where the output destination is to an email. At the event of execution of the scheduled time for the package; the package fails with the error: Component failed to run due to a Object Package scheduling failure. (Note: When scheduled individually it is successful and it was copied to the package from its original location, so there is no mistake in parameters or ODBC connections)
    When we go to the history and within the instance, we see that some of the reports have the status as success and some are failed with the same error message. Even though some of the reports are made to fail at the event of 'NO DATA'; what I do not understand is that how come some of the other reports (which contains data and which works when trying to run manually or scheduled individually) are failing.
    I would understand something is wrong when the entire package fails which is not the case here as say of 50 reports, 5 are successful and the rest fails with the same error.

    Sorry posted on the wrong section...

    when the apple review team review our app,they point out that our  app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently。but in fact,when the app in background ,the app need data update to make the function of  trajectory replay come ture。in fact, we have added function when the app  is in background mode。we have point out the point to them by email。but they still have question on the background mode,we are confused,does anyone can help me,i still don't know why do review team can't find the data update when  the app is in background and how do i modify the app,or what is the really problem they refered,do i misunderstand them?
    the blow is the content of the review team email:
    We found that your app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently. This behavior is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
    We noticed your app declares support for location in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location.
    It would be appropriate to add features that require persistent use of real-time location updates while the app is in the background or remove the "location" setting from the UIBackgroundModes key. If your application does not require persistent, real-time location updates, we recommend using the significant-change location service or the region monitoring location service.
    For more information on these options, please see the "Starting the Significant-Change Location Service" and "Monitoring Shape-Based Regions" sections in the Location Awareness Programming Guide.
    If you choose to add features that use the Location Background Mode, please include the following battery use disclaimer in your Application Description:
    "Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."
    Additionally, at your earliest opportunity, please review the following question/s and provide as detailed information as you can in response. The more information you can provide upfront, the sooner we can complete your review.
    We are unable to access the app in use in "http://www.wayding.com/waydingweb/article/12/139". Please provide us a valid demo video to show your app in use.
    For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. When the DTS engineer follows up with you, please be ready to provide:
    - complete details of your rejection issue(s)
    - screenshots
    - steps to reproduce the issue(s)
    - symbolicated crash logs - if your issue results in a crash log
    If you have difficulty reproducing a reported issue, please try testing the workflow as described in <https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1764/>Technical Q&A QA1764: How to reproduce a crash or bug that only App Review or users are seeing.

    You stated; " I have been successful with My Power Mac "
    A Power Mac is incapable of being upgraded to Mavericks. It is a PPC Mac which can only run versions of OS X up to 10.5.8 and no higher. Any version of OS X higher that 10.5.8 requires an Intel processor to run.
    Does the iMac meet the hardware requirements for Mavericks?

  • Distributing ZfD app objects

    Pardon the stupidity here.
    I'm just trying to get the thing working in a test lab without the
    benefit of any training (so I'm relying 100% on the manuals--eesh).
    anyway, I think I installed the stuff correctly and am making a test
    distribution.
    I created an app object (ZENworks) that's an MSI-based app with a
    transform.
    It has a macro in it (SOURCE_PATH). I don't know if this is still
    needed if using TED or not (right now, we manually duplicate the objects
    and then edit just the source path info so we don't have to mess with
    the Sources and MSI-> Transorms, etc.)
    Step 7d and 7e (page 296 of the PDF) for TED have me a little confused.
    Do I WANT to keep the same source path? I'd guess not since they are on
    diff. servers.
    For the destination volume, it defaults to: %DEST_VOLUME% But I'm not
    sure where to define this. The 73 steps say it's on the "dest.
    subcriber server's properties), but the NCP server object doesn't have
    this field anywhere. The SUBSCRIBER SERVER object has what appears to
    be two spots:
    General -> Working directory
    or
    Variables
    Or do I leave those alone and just try to figure out what to put in step
    7f? How does one put the server name, etc. in there?

    This will answer part of your question.
    Change the Destination Volume to %APPS_PATH%
    and change the User Defined directory path to where the app should be
    stored ie zfdapps (directory only no volume name)
    then in your subscriber object, go to the variables tab, select add and for
    the variable field type APPS_PATH and for the value enter the volume name

  • LCM tool generates error "There is no VMS app object present in CMS"

    Hello,
    I have an issue with the new LCM tool with XI 3.1.
    I am able to logon successfully to the Version Management application as I am an administrator but my colleagues are not. At first I thought this was a security issue but my colleagues have all rights assigned for the LCM application. Initially the users are able to login, and the issue happens only after Version Management is selected from the drop down box. The full text of the error is:
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: There is no VMS app object present in CMS.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Jason

    Hello Jason,
    I'm assuming you gave your other users rights to the LCM in CMC->Applications.
    I don't see the VMS (it holds information concerning Subversion and how the LCM connects to it) there, to affect rights over that application.  Administrators appear to have access rights.
    I'd recommend opening a SAP Incident to get clarification concerning rights to the VMS.
    Sincerely,
    Ted Ueda

  • Grant SELECT on all APPS objects to Custom schema

    Hi All,
    My requirement is to GRANT SELECT privileges on all Objects from APPS schema to a custom schema say XXTEST.
    I am OK, if there are multiple privileges to be granted (i.e. separate ones for TABLES,SYNONYMS,PACKAGES).
    I basically want to refer all APPS objects from XXTEST, without any schema prefix.
    I read about GRANT SELECT ANY TABLE, and it looks like I can access any schema objects from it.
    But I would like to know if I can grant from a particular schema alone.
    Thanks.

    Kavipriya wrote:
    I came across a privilege like 'SELECT ANY DICTIONARY', from which I can access all dictionary related tables without schema prefix. So am looking for something similar for APPS objects.Problem is, something similar for APPS objects does not exist. It's simply not there. You need to grant 'ANY' privileges, which means you'll be allowing the user to all the tables in the database, which is almost certainly not what you want, or you need to do individual grants.
    As I mentioned before, you can write SQL that will generate the GRANT statements for you, so you don't need to do it yourself.
    For example:
    select 'grant select on '||owner.table_name||'to some_user;' from dba_tables where owner='APPS';And then execute the output of that query, which will be a bunch of GRANT statements.
    Hope that helps,

  • App Object MSI's receive error on install

    I am trying to make use of addon imaging to streamline our imaging
    process. So far I've gotten the base and addons working except for one
    hangup; MSI's don't like to install when not logged into NDS.
    This is how the process goes:
    1. Machine boots and pulls down base image and all addons (using
    scripted imaging)
    2. Machine reboots and performs the usual sysprep steps
    3. Windows auto logs in as admin, ziswin is not run at this time to
    prevent conflict
    4. Windows launches a batch file I set as the 'run once' app in the
    registry which erases my auto admin login settings and launches
    nalwin32
    5. The nal then installs each application one by one from the cache,
    but here is where the issue surfaces... if it is an MSI, after the
    install is complete I get the following error:
    Could not get needed resources for application [object_name] to be
    launched (id=-337).
    Problem: Unable to connect to server [Server_Name]
    If I click OK on the error to dismiss it the following installs
    continue as normal (except if their MSI's they get their own error like
    above). The applications that receive this error are fully installed
    and work... so in reality its a worthless error that stops all progress
    until you click OK.
    I was referred to this TID:
    http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/se...i?10093943.htm
    which looked promising but did not fix the issue. We are running Zfd
    4.0.1
    Anyone run into this and fix it a different way than listed on the TID?

    problem with updated find my iPhone (FMi) app: when I attempt to open the FMi app, it tells me that I need to be a registered developer and run iOS7 to do so; is anyone else having this problem?  I got the app as a regular update to my existing FMi app which worked great.

    The problem is being reported in the news media, yes. Apparently someone at Apple jumped the gun and uploaded the update before it was ready. They'll probably issue another update shortly, I would expect, but you can go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. If you have a backup copy of the older version of the app, remove the newer version, restore the old version to iTunes on your computer, and resync.
    Update: Well, that was certainly quick. As of a short time ago, various sites are reporting that the Find My iPhone app is no longer displaying the previous error message. If it still is for you, delete it from your iPhone and re-download from the iTunes Store.
    Regards.
