https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hpsim-bug/m-p/3457203#M61618 Within HPSIM I've created a user, lets call him User A, with 'Server Configuration Rights' of 'none'. I've also created a custom tool called lockstat (which is actually the lockstat command). I tried the following:<BR /><BR />User A runs lockstat tool on User B, no response or stnd out.<BR /><BR />User A logs out of HPSIM<BR /><BR />I raise the rights of User A to FULL within HPSIM.<BR /><BR />User A logs into HPSIM<BR /><BR />User A runs lockstat tool on User B, gets full anticipated response.<BR /><BR />User A logs out of HPSIM<BR /><BR />I lower the rights of User A back to NONE within HPSIM. <BR /><BR />User A logs into HPSIM<BR /><BR />User A runs lockstat tool on User B, gets full anticipated response.<BR /><BR />User A runs lockstat tool on User C, gets full anticipated response.<BR /><BR />User A runs lockstat tool on User D, gets full anticipated response.<BR /><BR />Etc.<BR /><BR />Now that I've raised and lowered User A's perms in HPSIM, every user with rights of NONE can run the lockstat tool and get stnd out. If I create a new user with rights of NONE, he too can get the same results.<BR /><BR />Tomorrow morning I'll have to raise and lower User A's rights (or any user with rights of NONE) to get my custom command to work. It seems that HPSIM resets its internal permissions database everynight. Why? Why should I have to flip-flop perms to get this to work correctly?<BR /><BR />HPSIM version C.04.01.00.01 Thu, 06 Jan 2005 13:46:40 GMT Jeff Almaguer 2005-01-06T13:46:40Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/hpsim-bug/m-p/3457203#M61618 Within HPSIM I've created a user, lets call him User A, with 'Server Configuration Rights' of 'none'.

I'll give it a try. Hopefully I'll get more consistant results. Thanks for the info!
