0042-231 c_sm_nim:  Unable to generate the formatted list of software
to install.

This command is not supposed to be used outside SMIT. Use a simple "nim" command, which is done in two steps: first allocate the resource on the nim server, then use it on the client:

Code:
nim -o allocate -a lpp_source=<lpp_source> <client>
nim -o cust -a lpp_source=<lpp_source> -a filesets=<fileset> <client>

I hope this helps.
