Problem:
When you try to mount an NFS share, you get the error message:
Cannot find address for specified system name.
When you press F1, you get the error code CPFA1CE.
Solution:
The iSeries local host file (the Host Table entry) must include the iSeries's own name in both long and short format.
Note: RJS Software also recommends that that you enter the remote NFS server in both formats.
- On a command line, run:
CFGTCP
- Choose 10. Work with TCP/IP host table entries.
- If you system name is S10A1234, your host file must include the following lines:
192.1.1.10 S10A1234
S10A1234.MYDOMAIN.COM
- If you are adding a Unix Server with the name UNIXSVR as well, you must also include the following lines:
192.1.1.100 UNIXSVR
UNIXSVR.MYDOMAIN.COM
- Save and try to mount the NFS share again.
