01 May 2008 - Initial release of ZENworks 7.0 Asset Management PRU G
details
Overview: Product Recognition Update for ZENworks 7 Asset Management
System Requirements: System Requirements: See System Requirements for ZENworks 7 Asset Mangement Installation Documentation
Installation: This update must be extracted near the root of the drive, because it contains directory paths that could exceed the DOS limits.
Only an enterprise administrator can manage PRUs. The inventory process must be stopped before installing the PRU. Novell recommends that you perform this procedure between inventory cycles (when collections are not taking place). Not only is it faster to stop the inventory process when workstations are not being scanned, but also the new product data will then be available to all workstations during their next inventory cycle.
Note: The process of applying the PRU may take up to an hour depending on your system and network traffic.
After you download the PRU, extract the PRU files to a folder to which you have access from the ZENworks Asset Management Manager.
In the ZENworks Asset Management Manager, shut down the inventory process from the Control menu.
Click on the Administration menu, and then click on Product Recognition Update.
In the Apply Product Recognition Update dialog, specify the path to the PRU files.
Click on the Apply button.
After the process of applying the PRU has completed, then start the inventory process again.

ZENworks | Knowledgebase Update | May 2008
eReaders
-----
Are your users downloading eBooks at work?
While eBooks have yet to catch hold in a big way, with Amazon's recent introduction
of the Kindle, many expect more consumer and enterprise adoption in coming years.
Most eBooks are protected by Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology but it
is less than fullproof and as with any Intellectual Property, organizations must
be concerned if this type of content is downloaded to corporate assets, even
if it is then transferred to a mobile device.
That is why in this month's ZENworks Knowledgebase update, we focused on
popular software from the likes of Microsoft and Adobe that is used to
download, read and transfer eBooks.
