Asset Record Merge Failures

  • 1.  Asset Record Merge Failures

    Posted Feb 10, 2016 01:04 PM

    We recently upgraded to Altiris 7.6 and following the upgrade, some asset merges have been failing with the error: "Merge failed. Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier."

    This seems to be a SQL error and we have found some solutions that involve executing a SQL script to re-cast the string as a uniqueidentifier, but we would rather not change the database that way if possible.

    Has anyone else experienced this error? If so, how has it been fixed?

    Any suggestions are appreciated.
