Hello All.
I have discovered something which may be the problem...
On the client I want to make my managed node, I cannot do(i.e cannot find
it) a:
nslookup server_IP
But I can do a nslookup server_hostname
Also, on the TMR server side...
I cannot do(i.e. cannot find it) a: nslookup client_IP
But I can do a: nslookup client_hostname
Could this be my problem ???
Gord.

You didn't mention if you are using DNS or flat file /etc/hosts for name
resolution. I am using /etc/hosts for name resolution and had exactly the
same
problem in creating a managed node for a NetView client. After much
investigation, the solution is to "fake" out Tivoli by copying the
/usr/bin/nslookup command to, say, nslookup.ORIG and then create a fake
nslookup
file containing the following commands:
echo "Name: <hostname of TMR server.domain.name>"
echo "Address: <ipaddr of TMR server"
In my particular case, the fake nslookup file contains:
echo "Name: nvhost.hq.giantofmaryland.com"
echo "Address: 161.247.21.237"
After the install, copy back the original file to the nslookup file.
