Question:

problem with nim installing a node 

Response:

Env:
AIX 4.1/PSSP 2.1/SP-9076

Desc:
Customer (IBM SE) is installing a node and is getting nim related 
errors.  He wants the commands to re-configure nim.

Action:
Had the customer do the following:
   \# nim -o unconfig master
   \# installp -u bos.sysmgt.nim.master
   \# setup_server.

First run of setup_server errored off with:
   0042-082: nim config, this machine is already configured as a master
Found that he had a niminfo.prev in /etc. Had him remove the file and
run the above steps again.  setup_server ran past the point where it
got the 0042-082 error.

Next:
Will leave open for call back pending agreed closure 10/29PM.

Env: AIX 4.1.4 PSSP 2.1 PTF Set 16
Desc: Node did not customize and pssp_script will not update the node.

Action: Had the customer set NIM_CUSTOM=NIM and run pssp_script. Node
      customized just fine. host responds was red on several nodes. 
      After investigating, the /etc/SDR_dest_info file was pointing to
      the wrong partition. Updated it and ran "hb reset". host responds
    came up fine. One node could ping other nodes but not the CW and the
    CW could ping other nodes but not this node. FLushed the route table 
    on the node and it began to work. 

NEXT: CWCA

Testcase: None.
