Hotfix for Sequential Tasks

A hotfix has been developed and tested to resolve this issue.  The hotfix can be found here.  The hotfix upgrades the Task Synchronization Agent and updates the collection assigned to the Task Synchronization Agent Upgrade Task to incorporate the version change.

NOTE!  If you've previously installed a version of the hot fix prior to 2/18/2009 you will need to uninstall the previous version of the hot fix from Add/Remove Programs before reapplying with this newer version.

To apply the hotfix, simply run the attached EXE on the Notification Server (located in the right-hand pane).  Note that processing will be paused during the application of the hotfix.  It is recommended to either log directly on the Notification Server or use the /console switch if using Remote Desktop.

To finish the fix, use the Task Synchronization Agent Upgrade policy to roll out the new version of the Task Synchronization Agent.

1. In the Altiris Console, browse to View > Solutions > Software Delivery > browse through Configuration > Task Synchronization Agent.
2. Right-click on the Task Synchronization Agent Upgrade task and choose Enable (if not so already).
3. If an upgrade has occurred previously, please set a schedule to roll out the new Agent as the option for Run as Soon as the Computer is Notified only ever runs once, regardless of changes in version.
