5. While still on NIM master, issue lsnim -l <client_name> to list the NIM
client definition for the node that is having the problem:
# lsnim -l sp2n03
sp2n03:
class = machines
type = standalone
Cstate = ready for a NIM operation
Mstate = currently running
Cstate_result = success
prev_state
= not running
platform = rs6k
if1 = spnet sp2n03 10005AFA082C ent
cable_type1 = bnc
cpuid
= 000116875700
6. From the first step (output of
splstdata -b -l 3
), node 3 (sp2n03) had a
response (bootp_response) of
disk. The Cstate
attribute for the client
Ready for nim operation from the output of
lsnim -l sp2n03
is correct.
Based on the bootp_response for the node, the Cstate attribute is fixed and
will have fixed NIM object allocations for the client. The following table could
be used as a ready reckoner for NIM client definition information.

2.9.1.1 Export Problems
Following is an example of a successful export by the
exportfs
command from
NIM master node sp2n01 of a NIM client sp2n08, which is ready to be installed.
