Known Problems, Workarounds, Limitations
Following known problem is applicable for the current release:
Problem: If the permission for /tmp and /var/tmp directories are changed during HP-UX
installation phase, the sfmdb user cannot write temporary files. As a result, WBEM events are not
logged at the following locations: EventArchive, syslog, email and /var/opt/sfm/log/
event.log.
Workaround: To enable logging of WBEM events, the directory permission and ownership for
/tmp and /var/tmp must be reset to the values 1777 and root:root respectively.
