7. Verify the user's authorizations:
#cimauth -l
Example Output:
hpirs, root/PG_InterOp, “rw”
hpirs, root/PG_Internal, “rw”
hpirs, root/cimv2, “rw”
Creating WBEM Privileged Users with WBEM
A.02.09.08 or Later
Specifying privileged users in WBEM release A.02.09.08 for HP-UX 11iv2 and 11iv3 servers has changed
and no longer requires the use of cimauth commands. HP WBEM Services version A.02.09.08 and later
supports Insight Remote Support configuration on HP-UX 11i v2 and HP-UX 11i v3 operating systems.
After installing WBEM version A.02.09.08 on previously functioning HP-UX 11iv2 and 11iV3 servers
monitored by Insight Remote Support, monitoring functionality may be broken. This is primarily due to how
privileged users are specified. In previous versions, root was the default user and additional users with
root privileges had to be added and configured with the cimauth command on the HP-UX server. With
WBEM release A.02.09.08 and above, this is now done with an Insight Remote Support configuration file,
which contains a default user called hp_irs.
This update removes the need to provide root credentials for WBEM access or the creation of special
users with root privileges and no system access to be used with WBEM.
To configure root privileges for Insight Remote Support users on an HP-UX system, perform the following
steps:
1. Install HP WBEM Services version A.02.09.08 or later on HP-UX 11i v3 and 11i v2 operating
systems.
2. Edit the Insight Remote Support configuration file located at: /var/opt/wbem/hp_irs_
users.conf on an HP-UX system and enter the required user name. By default, the hp_irs user
name is added in the Insight Remote Support configuration file.
Note: Only system administrators can modify or create user names in the Insight Remote Support
configuration file. Ensure that the user name exists on the HP-UX system before configuring in the
Insight Remote Support configuration file.
3. Change enableSubscriptionsForNonprivilegedUsers to true:
# cimconfig -s enableSubscriptionsForNonprivilegedUsers=true -p
4. Stop the WBEM Services:
# cimserver -s
5. Restart the WBEM Services:
# cimserver
Note: Users configured in the Insight Remote Support configuration file can perform WBEM
