Domain search list



In CFGTCP, 12. Change TCP/IP domain information, I have:
Host name . . . . . . . . . . . 'MAIL1'
Domain name . . . . . . . . . . 'CORP.DEKKO.COM'
Domain search list . . . . . . . 'corp.dekko.com dekko-1 dekko.com'
Host name search priority . . . *LOCAL

From the command line I can type in:
ping traveler01.dekko.com
and it will find it's IP address and ping it successfully. However if I
just type in:
ping traveler01
I get: TCP3202 - Unknown host, TRAVELER01.
Why isn't it using the Domain search list?
7.1 with recent cume and group ptfs.

I ran this again in an attempt to flush it through
CHGTCPDMN HOSTNAME('MAIL1')
DMNNAME('CORP.DEKKO.COM')
DMNSCHLIST('corp.dekko.com dekko-1 dekko.com')
HOSTSCHPTY(*LOCAL)

The three "Domain name servers" (aka INTNETADR on CHGTCPDMN), match
between this new lpar and the old lpar that can ping this name.
The host search priority matches.
There are no host table entries on either lpar for this server.
The Domain search list on the old lpar is only slightly different:
CHGTCPDMN HOSTNAME('GDIHQ')
DMNNAME('corp.dekko.com')
DMNSCHLIST('dekko-1 corp.dekko.com dekko.com')
HOSTSCHPTY(*LOCAL)
