Insufficient security privilge to add a row - SunMC 3.5.1

Hi All,

I've a strange behaviour with my SunMC server.

Yesterday, I've made a fresh install and push a common config on some agents (+/-40) without any problem of security.

Today, I've tried to add a new process row to monitor but I received back an error like "Insufficient security privilege to add a row" on all my agents. I did nothing since yesterday. I've checked if my user was in the esadm group, it is.

Do anyone have an idea ?

Thanks in advance !

Quentin.

-are you using the same user that you used yesterday to load the modules on all 40 Agents?

-are all 40 Agents reporting the security error, or just one/some of them

-was the "fresh install" just a fresh install of your SunMC Server, or the Agents as well?

-have you tried to add the row manually? Or have you only tried with a Task/Managed-Jobs?

I've found a workaround just now.

I've relaunched on all my agents the command /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/configure -r, to force the change of the seed password.

Now it's working correctly but I'll keep an eye on it as I don't see where I've made a change.

For your questions :

-are you using the same user that you used yesterday to load the modules on all 40 Agents?

YES

-are all 40 Agents reporting the security error, or just one/some of them

YES ALL

-was the "fresh install" just a fresh install of your SunMC Server, or the Agents as well?

Only the server but it was working for hours because i've reloaded the metrics on agents without any problems.

-have you tried to add the row manually? Or have you only tried with a Task/Managed-Jobs?

Both with the same results.

I've add the patch 118389-09 which apparently didn't correct anything but at least removed some doubts.

Many thanks,

Quentin.
