 nim pushing mksysb? I have the possibility of getting p650 for partitioning, but I want to make sure that I have the migration procedure down. I am running the following: #!/bin/sh nim -o allocate -a lpp_source=520_lpp drtest nim -o allocate -a spot=520_spot drtest nim -o allocate -a mksysb=txspf111_mksysb drtest nim -o reset -a force=yes drtest nim -o bos_inst -a source=mksysb -a installp_flags='-agX' drtest nim -o reset -a force=yes drtest nim -o deallocate -a lpp_source=520_lpp drtest nim -o deallocate -a spot=520_spot drtest nim -o deallocate -a mksysb=txspf111_mksysb drtest Seems this should work but the target server is not getting the image through tftp. It seems like the target server is not even sending a bootp broadcast to the nim master. Any thoughts? AIX 5.2.0-2 nim master 100 Mb/s network      |

Then you can see if there are any bootp requests and from which MAC address. I also tend to allocate all resources at one go. e.g. nim -o bos_inst -a boot_client=no -a lpp_source=510_lppsource -a spot=510_spot -a bosinst_data=510_bosinst_data -a source=mksysb -a mksysb=510_mksysb couxmak01 Then issue "bootlist -m normal ent(x); reboot".
