ZCC Updates list is not accurate or doesn't show up.

I am seeing inconsistent or no results at all when I log into ZCC, go to "Devices", and look at the "Updates" column. I can patch, etc...using rug from the client with no problem, but would like to be able to at minimum, get an accurate list in ZCC that matches the output of "rug list-updates"
For example:
My workstation (SLED11-i586) has the icon in that column that there are updates available. When I click on it, I see 133 updates, similar to what is included in my attached file under the ZCC section.
Notice the multiple occurrences of the packages with high version numbers, etc.....
If I do a rug list-updates on my workstation, I receive what is included in my attached file under the RUG section.
A zypper list-updates pulls an identical list from NU.
FYI, the SLED11-Updates-bundle is assigned to a catalog that is assigned to the device, and the same has been done with the distribution bundle.
I have also noticed that when zlmmirror runs, it is re-downloading some of the same packages over and over again. An example output is included in attached file under the ZLMMIRROR section.
(command being used: zlmmirror m --force-nevra -c <xmlfile>
Sorry for all of the attachments, but I wanted to be sure to give all of the details of exactly what I am seeing.
Other devices do not show any patches in the "updates" column at all, even though there are outstanding patches, and some, like my workstations, are showing multiple occurrences of things that have already been applied.
We have a fairly new deployment of ZLM,and I am still working out the kinks, so I am sure that we probably have something misconfigured.
Any ideas? I would be very grateful for any assistance with this!
Thanks.
Allen B.

I had assumed that zlmmirror was just updating/replacing the packages in the bundle, and not incrementing the version each time there is an update.
Of course it updates the packages, but at the same time it increases the bundle version. The latest (deployed) bundle version has always only the highest package levels in. But if you check the bundle detail page in ZCC you can choose a different bundle version and check what packages was there in. But if you expect that you might get every day a sles 10 update, you could have another 365 different bundle versions a year on your zlm server. Therefor I delete the old version time by time.
Is there a setting to limit the number of versions that are kept of each bundle, or do I need to just manually clean that up from time to time?
No, there is no option to limit it.
I was hoping that the "Updates" column icon would give me a list of what is outstanding that matches the list provided on the device by rug list-updates, and that there would be some option to deploy from that list (similar to the Redhat RHN way of updating systems), rather than having to put the packages in a bundle that is direct assigned, or by using a remote execute script to do "rug up -y" as I have been doing. Looks like that is not an option, though....
The update list shows you all bundles on the zlm server that contain higher package versions then there are deployed on the managed device. If you want to deploy such a higher package version, you can select that bundle and assign it to the device directly and then it is a mandatory bundle and get installed the next time the device refreshes. If there are other packages in that bundle that have a higher package version, they also get applied at that time.
I assume you assign catalogs that you run the "rug up -y" frequently ?
Catalogs are just package repositories and nothin ghappens with the packages in the bundles of that catalog except you subscribe to the catalog and then run a rug up. That would check all package sources of the zlm client and install all available updates.
Regarding the zlmmirror and the multiple mirroring of the same package I need to check the hot patch 1 for 7.3. That might have a fix for that. Let me see, there is a tid for it.

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

    Many users have solved the problem by syncing several times; and if that doesn't work, perform a simple restore. Your titles will come back.

    I need to update my husbands iPad but it doesn't show a update but he has ios4

    If you mean that it doesn't show the Settings > General > Software Update option then that only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, with iOS 4 you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - but google have app versions in the store.

  • Pending Updates list does not change

    I have 13 apps in the Pending Updates list, and even though they have been updated, they still show under Pending Updates list. Next to them the button from "UPDATE" now shows "OPEN" but they remain in this list.
    I have updated to IOS 7. Upon updating, the phone showed that 13 apps required updating. I then tried to click on update all button but with no success. I also tried to update individually but also that was not possible, as app showed to be downloading forever-maybe server was slow.
    Hence I downloaded all on the computer and synced. Now these apps remained in the Pending Updates folder on the phone. New updates have occured for new apps and they were updated on the phone and moved down, under the update date section. Except those 13 apps. Very frustrating. ANy help? Would a hard reset and restore work?

    Hi sathyaav,
    Based on your code, I suggest you debug your code step by step to see to check whether the variables are valid.
    Also, I suggest you check if you have actived web application feature in Central Administartion ->"Manage Web Applications"->select web application and click manage feature in ribbon->Active your timer job.
    Here is a detailed code demo for your reference:

  • Ipod is not recognized, and doesn't show up in my computer services. Why? And how can I fix this issue?

    My ipod is not recognized on my windows 7 anymore. Drivers are up to date and working properly, everything on my computer is fine, it's just my Ipod. It does not show up in my "Services". It's not my computer, because it doesn't work on any other computers either. I do not know what to do, and I really need help please.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable          
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iTouch still doesn't show up in iTunes after the latest update...

    About maybe 1-2 weeks ago? I updated my iTunes to version 10.1.1.4 since I haven't updated it in A LONG time, then by the moment I finished updating, my iTouch's icon/option doesn't show up in iTunes anymore (before it was all fine).
    And an annoying message will keep showing up, with the messages:
    Title: Microsoft Windows
    "MobileDeviceService has stopped working
    Windows can check online for a solution to the problem."
    -> Check online for a solution (recommended) *which I clicked, and no help*
    -> Close
    I have tried connecting my iTouch to my other USB port on my PC, reinstalling iTunes, system restore (tried to get back to the oldest version I used, but failed).
    Out of solution, I waited for a new update to come, and it's here, version 10.1.2.17.
    But everything is still the same!! (And yes, I have repeated the possible solution I have tried before for the 10.1.1.14 version)
    While I asked for some helps on the internet, some people suggested me to reset my iTouch, because they think maybe something in there is broken or corrupted. But if I do reset it and the problem is still unsolved, I'll end up with an empty iTouch that can't sync anything at all...And I still need to use it everyday for internet purpose or whatnot...so I still didn't reset it yet...
