Troubleshooting
HP WBEM Services Messages
Chapter 7 85
•Message: Unable to connect to CIM Server. CIM Server may
not be running
To see if cimserver is running, enter: ps -ef|grep cimserver
Perhaps an operator stopped it by command, but did not restart it. To
start it, do one of the following:
HP-UX: cimserver (no options).
Linux: /sbin/service pegasus-wbem start
Perhaps someone has disabled both types of connection (HTTPS and
HTTP). To start it in that case, enter either:
cimserver enableHttpsConnection=true (default)
cimserver enableHttpConnection=true
•Message: Failed to shut down server:
CIM_ERR_INVALID_NAMESPACE: The target namespace does not
exist “root/PG_Internal”
The cimserver command cannot stop the CIM Server. The only way
to stop the CIM Server is to kill the CIM Server process:
1) Find the process ID (PID) of cimserver. Enter ps -ef|grep cimserver
2) Kill the process: kill -9 <PID>
The most likely cause is that the CIM repository was moved or
deleted, or that it is empty or corrupted. Try replacing all the
directories and files in /var/opt/repository/ for HP-UX or
/var/cache/pegasus/repository/ for Linux with your backup
copy.
If you cannot replace the repository directories, you can use the
init_repository script to restore your repository to what it was
when you first installed HP WBEM Services. You will need to
re-install any providers you added since you installed HP WBEM
Services. (You do not need to re-install the providers that are bundled
with HP WBEM Services.)
