HP SMH

[Ismail Azad · Accepted solution]

Hi christian derek,


The hpsmh "user account" is a system account also known as a "pseudo account" used for supporting subsystems, in this case the hpsmh subsystem as a whole and the UID of pseudo accounts are very much critical for supporting the subsystem in this case hpsmh. Although HPUX has a reserved range of 0-99, in most of the servers I have seen hpsmh has a UID a little above 100. A change in the system account will hamper the subsystem in this case SMH.

I say this because you have mentioned...

> since the hpsmh have a different one on the old system,

And by that I think you mean the 'hpsmh account' on /etc/passwd... Is it possible to make that as it was on the server you are transferring it from or is that UID is not free? {although I have never touched a system account}? But it's puzzling why you have the 'hpsmh pseudo account' having a different UID on both servers... Hope info helps.

try change the userid of the user hpsmh. Keep the same user id of the original user having.
