That won't happen. However, what they have done is to create some views over XMETA that use somewhat more meaningful identifier names.

Check that the XMETA password has not expired. Check too that connections to be made via LDAP to the user registry if that's what you're using (this test can be made in console for WebSphere Application Server).
