Problem description: --------------------------------------------------------------------- In a NIM environment where a NIM master is setup with multiple network interfaces, installing a NIM client throught one of these interfaces may be problematic. The problem is seen when the dsm.core fileset is installed on the NIM master and the NIM management class objects (hmc, ivm, bcmm) are defined and referenced by the NIM client object. When an install is initiated via the "bos_inst" operation, NIM resolves the network information for the client and the SPOT server and then attempt to hardware control the client machine for a network boot via access to the management class object. Due to the resolution error with the NIM network objects, the install will fail resulting in the following error message: 0042-001 nim: processing error encountered on "master": 0042-513 m_bos_inst: Not able to perform a network boot for . 0042-515 m_bos_inst: NIM is unable to determine the gateway between the and networks.
