[SLE] Is there a ZMD deadstart capability



While adding the Kde repositories to Install sources in yast I get this error:

--------
Your service was added successfully in YaST, but could not be synchronized
with ZenWorks.:
ERROR: Could not
add 'http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1/':
Failed to parse XML metadata: database disk image is malformed
-------

So it seems my Zen database is hozed. (Not surprising, since there was a power
failure while an update was in progress last thursday).

I suspect I need to re-start or re-build what ever database it is complaining
about.

How is this done?


(Note that Yast System Update still work, it found 24 updates to be applied,
but Zen-Updater will not start )
