RE: Network setup for sharing imagecatalog.

A suggestion to verify that it's working without trying to apply PTFs:

Log on to the target system and vary on the network optical device. I
always call mine "OPTNETxx). So assuming OPTNET01 is the device defined
over the image catalog directory then:

WRKOPTVOL

You should see an optical device with the name OPTNET01. If not you'll most
likely find an error in QSYSOPR that indicates a device error has occurred
on that device.

Assuming it's there put a "5" in front of it. If it comes back with volume
information you're good to go. If not back to device error.

Re-verify the IP addresses. Make sure the host partition can ping the
target partition IP address.

I usually will rerun the program I use to set up the NFS shares and
re-export the files. Ordinarily that will clear up the problem.

Thanks. I've got it up and it appears to be all set up correctly. We will
see when the next HIPER/SECURITY comes out. This is the first time I've had
our two LPAR's on the same release in many years, so first chance to give
this a try.

Yea, I don't think I've ever added the host table entry for the

reverse look

up. We have literally 100s of these set up all over the world. I

have one

customer that pushes the images between countries in the EU. (slow

but it

works....)

Good document there but one comment. They speak about adding host
table entries but I've done a hundred of these easy and never added a

host

table entry for this even once.
