who installed cimserver? Not a Proxmox VE component. Did you install any third party hardware management tool?

Fix error, yes cim server is a part of adaptec software. Reinstall fix this problem. Problem appear when i change root pass. Also Adaptec software for 6405 and 6408 series work only with 15 simbol pass, it's not good, so i del this soft.
