the user to trigger replication at will, outside the replication schedule. For more information,

Visual Icon to Determine if Newer Packages are Available If the updates available icon
displays in the Updates column of a device list, packages and bundles are available to be
installed on the device. Click the
icon to display the Updates Available dialog box. Click
the Help button for more information.
If the column is empty, all packages and bundles installed on the device are up-to-date with the
packages and bundles in the ZENworks package repository (the
/var/opt/novell/
zenworks/pkg-repo
directory on the ZENworks Server). Additionally, if this column is
empty and the selected device is a Dell PowerEdge server, it is assigned to the correct Dell
system set (assuming that the system set exists in the repository for the device's model).
For more information, see “
Determining If Newer Dell Package Updates Are Available for
PowerEdge Servers ” in the . Novell ZENworks 7.27.3 Linux Management Administration
