4.1 zlman

The zlman utility lets you perform the same tasks you can perform in the ZENworks Control Center,
with the exception of imaging and preboot tasks. It is installed on ZENworks Servers in the
following location:
/opt/novell/zenworks/bin
For more information about zlman, view the zlman man page (man zlman) on the ZENworks Server
or see zlman (1) (page 547).

4.2 zlm-debug

The zlm-debug utility lets you gather information to help you troubleshoot and solve problems you
encounter using ZENworks Linux Management. By default, zlm-debug gathers cache, server, client,
configuration, hardware, and package data as well as log files. The information is packaged into a
tarball file and placed in the location you specify. It is installed on ZENworks Server and managed
devices in the following location:
/opt/novell/zenworks/bin
By default, zlm-debug creates a tarball, zlm-debug-
yearmonthdate_of_file_creation.tgz in the /tmp directory.
For more information about zlm-debug, view the zlm-debug man page (man zlm-debug) on the
ZENworks Server or see zlm-debug (1) (page 538).
