Operating Systems AIX NIM NFS file system cannot unmount Post 302747135 by MichaelFelt on Thursday 20th of December 2012 03:50:37 PM

A "simple" solution, at least to try, is to delete the machine definition in the nim server, then on the client, use "smitty nim" to recreate the client.
If the nim master is missing a network resource, that is, thinks it is, you should get a message, and/or nim master will make one for you.

When you telnet/ssh to the nim master IP address, does "who" give you the expected hostname/IP address for the client?
