HP WBEM Services Version A.02.11.00 Release Notes HP-UX 11i v3 (766167-001, March 2014)

Running the CIM Server
After installation, the HP WBEM Services CIM Server process (cimserver) is active. To restart it,
first stop CIM Server with the cimserver -s command. Use the cimserver command, with
no options to start the cimserver daemon on the system where the command is issued.
Once the CIM Server has been installed, the CIM Server automatically starts as part of the system
reboot process.
When starting the CIM Server using the cimserver command, the <configProperty=value>
syntax can be used to set configuration property values to be used by the CIM Server. The values
specified in the cimserver command apply only to the current CIM Server process that gets
started. The cimconfig command can also be used to set configuration property values to apply
each time the CIM Server is started.
To see if the CIM Server is running, use the following command to check for the cimserver
process: ps -ef | grep cimserver. You will see the following processes: cimserver,
cimservermain, and cimserverd. The cimserverd process is a daemon process that monitors
cimserver to ensure it remains available.
WARNING! HP recommends not to disable cimserver at startup. Doing so, will impact other
HP products such as; iCOD/iCAP, HP SIM, VSE, and System Fault Management, as these HP
solutions depend on HP WBEM Services (cimserver) to be running.
Removing HP WBEM Services
Before removing the software, back up any files that you want to retain, such as the repository,
log files, configuration files, and certificate files. If these files are removed or overwritten during
the re-installation, you cannot restore them.
To remove HP WBEM Services, run the following HP-UX command:
# swremove WBEMServices
When there are providers in your environment that have a dependency on the file sets of HP WBEM
Services, then this command results in an error. In such cases, run the following command to remove
HP WBEM Services:
swremove -x enforce_dependencies=false WBEMServices
