Is your root/cimv2 namespace populated?  I'm guessing that 
CIM_HostedResourcePool is not added to the root/cimv2 namespace during 
the make preinstall because CIM_SystemComponent is not there.

You can check to see if the root/cimv2 namespace is populated by doing 
the following:

/var/lib/Pegasus/repository/root#cimv2/classes

You should see a number of classes there.  CIM_SystemComponent should be 
present there as well.

I uninstalled Pegasus on my RHEL 5.2 system, removed the repository, and 
then reinstalled Pegasus.  The tog-pegasus-2.7.0-1.el5 rpm populates 
root/cimv2.

My guess is your Pegasus install isn't populating the root/cimv2 
namespace.
