Hi again,

I think you should focus on getting this working before adding more sources to youre NIM server.

As faruk mentions there are a lot of things that can go wrong.

Not sure what he means with "run this command in client.". This is used to allocate resources to a client for a BOS installation on the NIM master.

These protocols are typical to NIM

1 ping
2 bootpd/dhcp
3 tftp
4 nfs
5 nimsh
6 nimaux

You can find a lot of info on NIM is this document
IBM Redbooks | NIM from A to Z in AIX 5L

But sumathi.k please post more info on the error so we can help you ;-)

gems-client

GEMS-CLIENT(1)							gems documentation						    GEMS-CLIENT(1)

NAME

       gems-client - Show data transmitted by gems-server (1)

SYNOPSIS

       gems-client [-i] host [port]

       gems-client -h | -v

DESCRIPTION

       Connects to a computer running gems-server(1) to show in the local terminal the data transmitted, in real time.

OPTIONS

       host   Hostname or IP address where the server is running.

       port   TCP port used by the server. Default: 6666.

       -i     Ignore  server  terminal size. If this option is not supplied, gems-client disconnects itself whenever the local terminal is smaller
	      than the terminal associated to the server.

       -h     Show a short help message.

       -v     Show version information.

FUNCTION KEYS

       While gems-client is running, some keys have special functions:

       q      Quit.

       a      Enable/disable alarm blocking. When active, if the server transmits an alarm character ('a'), the client ignores it, so	the  alarm
	      does not play. This is specially useful when many clients are present in the same room, to avoid the annoying simultaneous beeps.
