PermissionVersionTypeName
A wrapper process that is used by the
cimserver to load the shared libraries of
individual providers as separate processes
distinct from the CIM Server and other providers.
This process provides protection for the
cimserver in the event of a failure that occurs
with a provider as only that specific provider is
affected.

provides the CIM Server with PAM
Authentication services. This daemon is
controlled solely by the CIM Server and has no
user interface.
No user
interface
A.02.07Daemoncimservera
This daemon is used by HP WBEM Services to
automatically restart in case of a failure. This
daemon is not intended to be used by operators.
However, you can set the interval for this
daemon.
Normally, the CIM Server is started and halted
using the cimserver command. If you halt the
CIM Server using the cimserver command,
the daemon does not automatically restart it in
the event of a failure.
For more information on using this command,
see cimserverd(1M).
Cannot be used
by users.
A.02.07Daemoncimserverd
This process is the main executable for the
WBEM server. This process can only be used
with the cimserver command. The
cimserver executable runs as the root user
to perform privileged operations for the WBEM
Server. The cimservermain runs as cimsrvr
user to perform all WBEM Server functions that
do not require privileged access.

The cimtrust command is used to add,
remove or list X509 certificates in the PEM
format in the WBEM Server trust store. If the
HTTPS connection and client verification is
enabled on the WBEM Server, clients must use
this command to add their certificates to the
WBEM Server trust store.

The cimsub command provides a command
line interface to manage the CIM indication
subscriptions on the local CIM Server.
