ITS Zenworks services restored, Windows computer logins back to normal

Update 1/13/15 7:30AM:

Verified this morning, all services provided to Windows computers by Zenworks have been restored.  Login times should be back to normal, and login on a computer you have not used previously should work.  If you see an issue with either, please reboot the computer.

 

Update 1/12/15 3:00PM:

ITS continues to work with the vendor to restore the Zenworks service. Emergency database maintenance has been scheduled from 5:30-7:30PM tonight with a target of having full functionality restored by 7:30AM Tues. 1/13/15. PLEASE CONTINUE following the workaround outlined below to log in to your Windows computer until service is restored.

Original Post: 

Due to the Zenworks outage, when you log in to your Windows computer at this time, a 2nd login window will appear which will not accept your credentials. Clicking the “cancel” button on this 2nd login will allow the Windows login to continue, with full access to your network drives and the Internet. 

Note: this will only work on Windows computers you have previously logged into. You will be unable to log in to a Windows computer you have not previously logged into until the Zenworks service is restored.

Attempts to restore the service are still in progress with vendor support.
