Adding a WPAR client to the NIM environment using the command line

Use this information to add a WPAR NIM client to the NIM environment from the command line.

The following are prerequisites for using this procedure:

The NIM master must be configured. For information about configuring the NIM master, see Configuring the NIM master and creating basic installation resources.
You must know the subnet mask, the default gateway for the client machine, and the default gateway for the NIM master.

To define a WPAR client, enter the following:

 -a mgmt_profile1=ManagingSystemDescription \
-a if1=InterfaceDescription \
<optional resources and attributes>\
MachineName

For example, the command to add the wpar1 WPAR client that is managed by the nim_std1 NIM stand-alone client to the NIM environment is as follows:

nim -o define -t wpar -a mgmt_profile1="nim_std1 wpar1" \
-a if1="find_net wpar1 0" wpar1
