Strange, I have not seen this 6/7 message. This means that the test
domain has less RASD types than RASD types found on the system.
Can it be that you have some domain already defined before you run
cimtest? This might explain the behavior (but would be a bug in
cimtest).

As for the patch grouping, it was meant to make the patches more
readable rather than to be technically necessary. In fact, the provider
patches (5,6,7) and the MOF/schemal patch (2) must go together.
I can squash them in a V2, but this could in my opinion wait until
I get more feedback.

Could you do me a favor and apply this here, rerun the RASD test group
and paste the resulting cimtest.log from the RASD directory? Thanks!
