Read the message please:

User-defined pre-add task customizatio0n command faile(returned non-zero) when addind user"test".see the SAM log file for details.The user was not added.

Check your pre-add task customization and see the log file.

Hi Suresh,

please read the error message, it is asking about "see the SAM log file for details."

see the man pages for"useradd â add a new user login to the system"

Instead of using sam, try with command line
#groupadd -g gid
#useradd -u uid -g gid -m -s /usr/bin/ksh -c "user details"
#passwd

you might have some conflicting pre-add customization. try to check you sam log file for anamolies. if you see errors, post it here.
