useradd complains that the UID already exists
Description

When creating local users with the same UID as users in Active Directory useradd complains that the UID already exists.
Resolution

As root unconfigure QAS in nss while you create your new local users.
To do so you would run:
/opt/quest/bin/vastool unconfigure nss

create your local users and run:

/opt/quest/bin/vastool configure nss
