Starting the CIM Extension Manually
The management server can only obtain information from this host when the CIM extension is
running.
Keep in mind the following:
• You must have root privileges to run the CIM extension. The CIM extension only provides the
information within the privileges of the user account that started the CIM extension. Only root
