Zenworks Imaging & OES2 Problem

Hi there,
I'm experiencing a problem with ZDM7, which I have installed on an OES2 server. The problem appears to be specific to the imaging service, which I believe is loaded as a module into NDS. I installed ZDM7 using the updated media, which claims to support OES2.
The problem: the imaging service runs fine for about a day or two, and then crashes. When it crashes, the ndsd.log file gets spammed hundreds of times per second with:
allocation failed: 12
This quickly fills up the /var partition on the server, which then effectively crashes the entire server.
Restarting NDS and the imaging service fixes the problem temporarily, but it always reoccurs.
Is this related to any known issue? If not, is there a way to get a more verbose error message from either the imaging service or ndsd?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

  • ZENworks Imaging & Image Safe Data Problems

    Hi All,
    I'm in the preparation stage of a Windows 7 rollout to 4000 desktops. So far we've packaged up 200 applications/bundles and tested them against our image, everything on that front is fine.
    Our new ZENworks 11.3.2 server is being now being used to deploy our old Windows XP images (created in ZfD7), I'm using hardware rules to do this and it's working perfectly.
    When I use the hardware rules to deploy our new Windows 7 Image it will image once as expected. The PC then boots, a powershell script will build the hostname from the model and serial number, join the domain, install the ZCM agent and all looks good.
    The problem comes later when I try to image the machines again, we get "no work to do". After some reading I assume this is because of the Image Safe Data.
    I've tried a things so far but seem to be getting inconsistent results, basically each time I PXE the machine I want the machine to use the hardware rule to pull down the image.
    The only way I have found that seems to work,is to clear the Image Safe Data and delete the "Novell ZENworks Image-Safe Data Service" after the agent has been installed (as part of my build script). This seems like overkill to me and I'm sure I'm missing something. Help!
    Any help/guidance would be much appreciated!
    Thanks
    Carl

    Often the just use the ZCC to tell the device to Apply the Assigned Image and then upon reboot it will just apply the image.
    Some often script this with WOL so that every morning at 3am all of their lab devices will re-image.
    Also you don't want to "Delete" the ZISD Service, it is better to configure the Default ZCM Agent Settings to install that service if you do not want it.
    Otherwise, it will come back.
    You may also be able to make configure the ZCM Imaging Menu to Always show when PXE Booting.
    Then you could manually select an image to restore, regardless of the state of the ZENworks Image Safe Data.

    Added C:\Program Files\Novell\ZENworks\bin\preboot\ZISWIN.EXE -WIPE to the HKLM\..\Run registry key.
    Deleted the "Novell ZENworks Image-Safe Data Service" service.
    I'm not sure how this will effect client machines in the future when we update the Agent.
    When other customers reimage a machine which is already registered in ZENworks, do they push out images from the console?

  • ZENworks Imaging Loop

    Sorry for posting again, but here is some more information, as well as some extra things we have tried.
    Hi,
    The screen results with this exit code after the workstation has been imaged, prior to booting back into PXE and then re-imaging, along with completion and the same message.
    ================================================== ==================

    Novell ZENworks SID changer for linux
    Version 10.2.0.0 Copyright 2007 - 2009
    Exiting: Computer has not been recently imaged
    ================================================== ==================
    The above message occurs (and this happens to other Laptops & PCs) after the machine has been imaged, but we are still having the computer re-imaging itself, it is in a constant loop.
    We were running Zenworks 7SP1 IR4. Last week we loaded Zenworks 7SP1 SR4.
    My manager has rolled back to IR4, but no change, as we have computers constantly re-imaging over and over in a loop.
    I have tried deleting the workstation object (name) from within ConsoleOne, and still the problem occurs. I have also made sure there are no add-on images attached to the imaging.
    Notes:
    Now, whenever we image a PC, the imaging process appears to finish, but we get an error: "Zenworks Imaging failed with Error:52"
    The system then reboots and starts the process again. If you look at the workstation properties, the Zenworks Image tickbox has not cleared, and hence the restart of the imaging.
    I found that Zenworks error 52 is: "52 - No partition type given when asked to create a part". I don't know why it would be saying that. (It is also possible that this message has always been there, but we have never noticed it, as the process has always worked).
    I came across an article that suggests the "ZENworks agent on the workstation has to be the same version as the ZENworks snap-ins in ConsoleOne".
    We are using:
    ConsoleOne Version 1.3.6h
    ZENworks Desktop Management 7.0.1 = snap-ins for configuring policy settings
    ZENworks Desktop Management 7.0.1 = snap-ins for administering and managing software distributions
    If you have any ideas could you please let us know?

  • My iMac 27" Late 2012 has Image Persistence Problem

    I'm wondering what to do about an annoying image persistence problem on my 27" late 2012 iMac. I got the iMac just a few days ago. Monday actually, so 4 days ago.
    It's the 3.4GHz i7, 8GB, NVIDIA 680MX 1TB fusion drive model.
    Overall it has become the love of my life, but the image persistence thing is getting harder to ignore. This happens after only a few minutes of use. If I follow Apple's instruction on dealing with LCD image persistence, I can make it go away for a while, but it comes back very quickly.
    It is extremely noticeable on a plan dark background. It looks as thought he screen has been left on for a very long time with the same windows open, but it occurrs in less than 5 minutes of use with nothing more intense than a bit of web surfing.
    I've read that this is happening a great deal on these new iMacs, particularly teh 27" machines.
    While the problem seems to be known to those of us afflicted I don't know if Apple has acknowledged an issue or not.
    Here is a sample of the complaints: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1509571
    I can make the ghost image vanish by bringing up an all white scree for a minute or so or using LCD Scrub.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has foun a solution other than asking for a replacement computer, which Apple seems to be granting on this issue?

    Avoiding image persistence on Apple (IPS) displays
    Avoiding image persistence on Apple LCD displays
    If you cannot resolve the issue yourself, then return the computer for a replacement. You may do this freely within 14 days from date of purchase, so don't delay.

  • Problem: codebase, jar and image reloading problem please help!

    Hi Java Gurus,
    I have written an applet that extends JApplet for viewing webcam. In order to reduce the download time I put my classes into a doorcam.jar file. The following is my <applet> tag in my html file.
    <applet code="CameraApplet.class"
    archive="doorcam.jar"
         codebase = "webcam/classes"
         width="375" height="475">
    <param name="imagePath" value="http://judge/webcam/images">
    <param name="webCamImage" value="door.jpg">
    <param name="COMPort" value="COM2">
    <param name="frameRate" value="10"> <!-- could not exceed more than 10-->
    <param name="host" value="judge">
    </applet>
    The fist problem is that my class file does not get loaded from the jar file if i provide the "codebase" attribute as above. Instead the browser load every single class file from the webserver. This has some problem too. Coz the browser sometimes just thorough NullPointerException or ClassNotFoundException. After much of debugging I found out that the problem is the IE browser which seldom fails to load classes or image file from the server. If i referesh the browser the applet and all its classes loaded successfully and runs smoothly. This behaviour never occurs when running with "appletviewer".
    I wanted all my classes to be loaded from my jar file. After much of trial and error I found out that if i remove "codebase" attribute the browser loads the classes from my jar file and applet loads very fast. This is where the second problem comes in. The browser does not reload my webcam image file so that the webcam become alive with live images, like before.
    If I run on "appletviewer" everything works fine my web cam is displayed properly. But in IE browser the image does not get reloaded when I refresh my image to give live to my webcam display. The refresh method is given below.
    private void refresh(final URL url) {
    Image webCamImage =getImage(url);
    webCamImage.flush(); // flush out the previous image
    webCamImage = getImage(url); // get a new image
    webCamImageIcon.setImage(webCamImage); webCamImageIcon.paintIcon(webCamLabel, webCamLabel.getGraphics(), 15, 15);
    When I add the "codebase" attribute back, the image gets reloaded for every refresh() and everything works fine. But the classes are also loaded from the server. And occasionally also suffers Class loading and image loading problem. As I presented earlier, when I do refreshing in the browser everything gets loaded and the applet function correctly with web cam displaying very well.
    The problem is so strange that I could not find any way to solve it.
    It would be a great help to me if somebody provide me some work around to the problem.
    I tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, IE 5.5, IE 6 with J2SDK 1.4.0.
    Thank you all very much in advance.
    best regards,
    Judge

    Thank you so much for the suggestions. I did tried the way u suggested. The problem still the same.
    I think its the problem between IE browser and Java Plug-in.
    I which SUN would find these incompatibilities and solve these problems.
    I even tried using java SDK and plug-in 1.4.1 it even worst. It can't even load an applet. And it does not show any loading messages nor any error messages. It just show a cross sign on the upper left coner.
    I would be so glad, if Sun would try to eliminate the inconsistancies such as caching, loading, initializing etc between browser and its Java plug-In. For example, applets behave well in appletviewer and behave unpredictably in browser environment.
    I have seen so many people in the forums with all sorts of problems because of this.
    Right now I m desperately looking for work around to my problem.
    If somebody would provide me with the solution to my problem it would be a great help to me.
    thank you all so much.

  • SSRS indicator image display problem!!

    Hello ALL;
    I am having problem with displaying indicator image in DEV report manager. but same rdl works in QA environment. Both server has SP1 installed. Any Idea? Appreciate for your help. Thanks,

    Hi Techchi,
    Based on the limited information, I cannot figure it out for this issue. As per my understanding, I think this issue can be caused by the browser that run the report manager. If you use IE explorer to render the report, I suggest that you can try to run
    it in compatibility mode. If you are using another browser, I recommend that you should use IE explorer to render the report to check the issue again.
    If this issue still exists, in order to solve the problem more efficiently, I need to clarify some information.
    Are all reports with indicator image cannot render well in DEV report manager? Or just this one report?
    What is the phenomenon about the indicator image display problem? Could you please post a screenshot about this?
    It is benefit for us to do further analysis. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Having a image alignment problem using clearbox

    Hi,
    I'm having an image alignment problem. I cannot figure it out. I'm using the clearbox - lightbox dreamweaver widget. Using Dreamweaver CS6.
    Actual page located here. Any help would be appreciated.
    http://dirtysouthink.com/gallery/dustin2.html

    This has very little to do with Dreamweaver. DW is merely a tool to assist you in building a web site. It is purely a matter of styling (CSS).
    When I look at the structure, I see
    BODY-CONTENT (width: 490px)
         GALLERY (width: 452px)
              CONTAINER (width: 500px)
                   ITEM (width: 150px)
    From this I can deduce that:
    GALLERY will fit inside BODY-CONTENT
    CONTAINER will NOT fit inside GALLERY or BODY-CONTENT
    ITEM will fit three times into CONTAINER
    To start with, I would reduce the size of the CONTAINER so that it fits inside of its parent. Then I would adjust the width of the ITEM so that only two of them fit inside of the CONTAINER.

  • How to solve the image display problem in the iTunes Store

    Hi guys!
    I just want to give a work-around for all of you having the image display problem in the iTunes Store. In my case only the square images in the slider sections won't load:
    I had this in my last W7-installation and got it again in W8 after the first few weeks.
    There are a lot of reports about this problem out there and adhoc solutions like 'clear the cache' or 'reinstall and drink ice tea' that do not work. It is obviously a file request error. It is all about finding out which server addresses get blocked by your computer.
    Solution: Go to your firewall and your Anti-virus-program. There must be a whitelist option. In Kaspersky, check the web-options, the banner-options and the firewall-options, because the all have whitelists. The following addresses have to be whitelisted:
    *.apple
    *.mzstatic.apple.com.akadns.net
    *.mzstatic.com.edgesuite.net
    *.da1.akamai.net
    *.itunes.apple.com
    se.itunes.apple.com
    upp.itunes.apple.com
    ax.init.itunes.apple.com
    xp.apple.com
    *.mzstatic.com
    client-api.itunes.apple.com
    www.apple.com.edgekey.net
    www.isg-apple.com.akadns.net
    Press Ctrl + R in the iTunes Shop then and browse throught the music sections. All images should be displayed correctly now.
    If not, there might be more Apple servers involved in your case. You can find them by running a DNS sniffing tool like the DNS query sniffer by Nirsoft or Wireshark.

    Phone restarting randomly could be loose battery. Tighten by putting a small strip of electrical tape on the back edge.
    THE BITTERNESS OF POOR QUALITY, LINGERS LONG AFTER THE CHEAPNESS OF PRICE, IS SOON FORGOTTEN.

  • Decompression error's with Zenworks Imaging v6.5

    As part of our re imaging process, policy requires us to backup all
    workstations before re imaging. this often results in images ~25GB in size.
    (I am aware that it is not good practice to save data locally and ideally
    backup images should not be huge. Unfortunately due to policy this is
    unavoidable.)
    ZENworks imaging works great, except that occasionally individual files
    cannot be extracted from the image.
    When i try to extract a file in the above situation i am prompted with the
    following error:
    "A decompression error occured while attempting to extract the file from
    the image (-112). This file may not be extracted."
    In the past i have noted that the file in question tends to be quite large,
    (280MB) and is compressed in a fairly large image, ~20GB.
    Have checked on the original PC and the file is intact and working fine.
    When i backup the machine via Ghost the file is able to be extracted fine.
    Any help on this topic would be great as its difficult to test individual
    files and once the PC has been re imaged, if a file is corrupt in the
    image, it is impossible to retrieve.
    Cheers, Leon

    Is the file compressed using NTFS compression?
    It may be colored blue if you look at it in Windows Explorer.

  • Image reading problem in servlet

    Image reading problem in servlet
    I am reading an image in servlet and writing it to ServletOutputStream
    The following code works fine unless I change the size of the byte array (for increasing download speed) from 8 to something like 128 or any other higher value
    If I change the value of byte array size the image does not get downloaded properly, I mean the quality of the image changes, it does not looks like the original imageURL url = new URL("http://www.mysite.com/images/img1.jpg");
    URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
    con.setUseCaches(false);
    BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(con.getInputStream());
    BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
    byte b[] = new byte[8];
    while(in.read(b) != -1)
         out.write(b);
         out.flush();               
    out.close();
    in.close();what do I change
    byte array size
    or use the constructor of BufferedInputStream with 2 parameter
    or use the constructor of BufferedOutputStream with 2 parameter
    or use flush outside while loop or what else

    Change your while loop to:
    int count;
    while((count = in.read(b)) != -1)
         out.write(b, 0, count);
         out.flush();               
    }The penultimate time read is called, it may not fill the entire byte array. You only want to write out however much was read into the array.
    For better performance, you should move the flush() outside of the loop too. BufferedOutputStream will flush automatically when its internal buffer is full.

  • Netinstall image  installation problem

    Hi, I'm new in MacOSX Server and trying to do image file with System Image Utility 10.6.2 - MacOS10.6 and additional packeges (MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.2, iWork'09, iLife'09) with "AddPackages and Post-Install Script". By making a image no problem but when I start the installation occurs the following problem.
    MacOs10.6 install correct but other programs added in "AddPackages and Post-Install Script" is not installed, and in Macintosh HD is created a folder named Install.76443 with locked directories.
    Where is the problem why the additional packages not installed.
    My SIU configuration is :
    Define Image Source: MacOSXInstallDVD
    Add Packages and Post-Install Scripts
    - MacOsx10.6.2. Update Combo
    - iLife'09.pkg
    - iWork'09.pkg
    Create image
    type: Netinstall
    Install Volume: Macintosh HD
    Save to: Documents
    Image Name: Netinstall of Mac OS X Install DVD
    Network Disk: Netinstall of Mac OS X Install DVD
    Image Index: 1533
    Description: Netinstall of Mac OS X Install DVD
    i want to create one image for all packages and updates and install it from network to all computers in my office.
    thanks

    I think this is covered in a different thread but, in short, the 10.6.2 update will fail to install on top of the 10.6 DVD. YMMV with the iLife & iWork packages as they may run pre-install scripts that will also cause them to fail.

  • RH8 image map problem

    I created an image map back in RoboHelp 6 and it worked perfectly. When I converted my project recently to RoboHelp 8, the image map pop-ups are not working correctly. I've checked the properties of the image map and they are correct. But the pop-up boxes do not display correctly. I'm going to attached an example of how the same one displays in RH6 and RH8 and a screen shot of my settings.
    Can anyone help me with this?

    After much trial and error testing around this image map issue, I cannot seem to find a fix for image maps within RoboHelp 8. No matter what I've tried (and it was a lot), nothing seems to fix the image map problem. Even creating a new image map on a new page with totally different info, pop up pages, image, etc. and turning OFF all breadcrumbs - the image map does not display correctly once generated (nor in preview).
    I have found a VERY TEDIOUS workaround for this (that I'm not happy about). If I take my original pop-up topic htm pages (9 of them) from my RoboHelp 6 project and the original eHlpDhtm.js file from RH6 and place them in my output Help file from RH8 (overwriting the RH8 with the RH6 files), then the image map works correctly.
    The eHlpDhtm.js file has many more scripts in it than just the image map triggers, so I'm not sure what all else I'm affecting when I'm fixing one problem (i.e. not sure how many more problems I'm creating at the same time when fixing one problem.)
    It's almost like the "breadcrumbs" feature in RH8 has broken the image maps feature in RH8.
    I'm still up for more suggestions as how to fix this if anyone has any ideas.
