Problem description: --------------------------------------------------------------------- With a NIM environment where the NIM master has the dsm.core fileset installed and the NIM client object has its mgmt_profile attribute configured to point to the ivm object, running a "nim -o bos_inst" operation against the NIM client will experience hang during the installation of the client. The problem is caused by the network boot script shipped with the dsm.core fileset and used by NIM. During install, NIM will network boot the client due to its management class object configuration. The boot script will open a virtual terminal connection to the client and cause the hang to occur during install. The hang usually occur during install and after the BOOTP process. Running a rmvt on the IVM against the installing client partition will close the connection and allow the install to continue.
