The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Maybe I interpreted wrong, but I think his question was about whether the NSLOOKUP command would be still supported since it appeared to be part of option 31, dns server.

Not dropping NSLOOKUP ... the DNS server is to make your IBM i be a DNS server which it seems nobody does anymore.
Not having a DNS server does not stop DNS exploratory utilities from working. For instance, nslookup just goes to whatever you've configured to be the dns server you do lookups against, usually some VM in the data center, or 8.8.8.8 for Google.

Not sure what it means for the NSLOOKUP command, but FWIW there is also a PASE version of nslookup available.
