I successfully updated 16 of our 17 servers from 11.2.3a to 11.2.4 today. I cannot get the last one to update though. It just stays at "Update Assigned". I've done "zac ref", refreshed from ZCC, rebooted multiple times, did a manual assignment with zman sui, etc. I have the logs set to DEBUG level, but don't really see anything that stands out in the zmd-messages.log. I also do not see anything in loader-messages.log and of course nothing has updated in the system-update directory.
After a refresh, these are the only entries in zmd-messages that contain "systemupdate" (as mentioned in another thread):

"hpes-zcm" is the server that is not updating. This last bit seems to indicate it is assigned (that's the correct GUID for 11.2.4), so I am not sure why the process isn't kicking off on this server.
loader-messages did not update anything after the last refresh.
Anything else I can try? All but our central office primary server were installed as VMware appliances using the exact same settings and all 16 of those have been updated at the same time since the original installs. So, there is nothing particularly special about this server.
Thanks,
Jason
