FOMN0080
localaddr: service/protocol: getaddrinfo errdesc

Explanation

A getaddrinfo() issued by inetd initialization or restart processing failed. This can happen if localaddr is not a valid IP address, if TCP/IP or the resolver is not started or if service/protocol is not defined in /etc/services or the TCP/IP services dataset.

In the message text:
localaddr
The local IP address specified in the configuration file. An asterisk indicates INADDR_ANY (an "*" in the configuration file) was requested or defaulted.
service
The name of a service specified in the configuration file.
protocol
The protocol specified for the service in the inetd configuration file.
errdesc
Error description associated with the return value returned from getaddrinfo().

System action

inetd continues with the next configuration file entry. It will retry those that fail every three minutes.

System programmer response

Start TCP/IP and the resolver, if necessary, and check and correct the inetd configuration file, /etc/services file and/or the TCP/IP services data set. If the inetd configuration file is changed, it will be necessary to either stop and restart inetd, or send it a SIGHUP signal to pick up the changes.
