Enhancemnt request for setup.sh in TDP HANA 8.1.1.0 for non-local sidadm users support

We had opened case (TS001622349) as we were getting user related error while running setup.sh for Data Protection for SAP HANA 8.1.1.0 because we are not using local user.

hanatest02:/opt/tivoli/tsm/tdp_hana # ./setup.sh
IBM Spectrum Protect for Enterprise Resource Planning
Data Protection for SAP HANA(R)
Version 8.1.1.0 build 732
(c) Copyright IBM Corporation, 2011-2017, All Rights Reserved.
Please enter the SAP HANA(R) system ID [TR3]: IL4
ERROR: SAP HANA(R) system user 'il4adm' can not be found on system.
If you want to protect a tenant database within a Multitenant Database Container (MDC)
then provide the SID of the system database that contains the tenant database.
Rerun the setup script and provide correct input for SAP HANA(R) system ID

Please note that il4adm is not local user but it is Centrify user which is mapped from Active directory.
hanatest02:/opt/tivoli/tsm/tdp_hana # more /etc/passwd |grep il4adm
hanatest02:/opt/tivoli/tsm/tdp_hana #
hanatest02:/opt/tivoli/tsm/tdp_hana # adquery user |grep il4adm
il4adm:x:25335:201:il4adm:/usr/sap/IL4:/bin/bash

In case TS001622349 , support informed us to create enhancemnt request for including support related to non-local sidadm user in setup.sh script since all our hana systems are having Centrify <sid>adm users. So we are opening this case. Let us know if any other input data is required.
