HP System Account and Directory Naming Structure 

by The Release Delivery Team 
Commercial Systems Division 

Since the MPE operating system originated, Hewlett-Packard has developed
and maintained a number of system accounts that are considered reserved.
With the addition of POSIX, this idea is extended to include a number of
Hierarchical File System (HFS) directories as well.  Each time you
perform a system installation or update, the new information added to
your system is placed in these reserved structures.

Hewlett-Packard recommends that you do not use reserved names to
avoid overwriting your user accounts and directories.  Rename all
non-Hewlett-Packard accounts and directories that use any of the reserved
names.
