RE: iSeries Navigator Inventory collection error

Just a glimmer of a memory here, but wasn't there supposed to be an entry in
the hosts table for the local system, that matched the domain configured in
the TCP/IP config?  Something like that......

I don't know if your problem is the same as mine (or what my problem is) 
but I got the inventory collection to run on one system and not another. 
  The failing system has a job QYPSJSVR that shows an error in the log:
CPFB9A1 Management Central connection failed.

I'm guessing that is why mine doesn't work.  It somehow is trying to 
connect to a host which it should not.  I just need to figure out *why* 
it's trying to connect to that host!

Hopefully this will get you closer to your solution as well.
