Known problems and workarounds
Following known problems and workarounds are for this release.
Users and groups of HP WBEM Services conflict with users and groups of NIS, LDAP and other
network services
What is the problem?
During installation, HP WBEM Services creates a user cimsrvr and a group cimsrvr. If you
are using Network Information Services (NIS), Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) or any other network service for managing user and group accounts, there is
a possibility that the user ID (UID) and the group ID (GID) created for HP WBEM Services is already
in use by other users. The duplication of user and group IDs results in a change in file ownership
and can stop applications working correctly.
