To All,

After configuring multiple NIM servers, I have encountered a problem
which is baffling me.

NIM Server:
AIX5.2 ML2
Machine configured as Master and ability to load 4.3.3 and above.

I have loaded apprx 120 machines with AIX 5.2ml2 with a bosinst.data
file and customization script. These boxes were loaded remotely.
The last 30 boxes I started to load a couple of days ago have loaded
but the network on the client was not configured automatically like the
others......why?
Nothing has changed.....the only thing I noticed is that the systems
never ran the customization script at the end probably due to network
not being configured.
During troubleshooting, I have deleted the machines that were having
trouble
from the NIM master and reconfigured them - still doesn't work.
Also, I have loaded them without any customization or bosinst.data
file....
(I have console servers on the remote end so loading them with bosinst
was
not a problem)...this still didn't work.

I am confused......what happend?.......
My testing has been very robust. Each test I ran was with a different
machine and network
according to NIM.

HELP!!! : )
