EZZ8245I

Explanation
 The Network SLAPM2 subagent was unable to resolve
the local host address and is  using the IPv4 Loopback address to
connect to the SNMP agent instead of to the  host address.
 The
Network SLAPM2 subagent uses the gethostid() socket function to retrieve
 the local host address. The IP address returned by this function
is the primary  interface address of the TCP/IP stack associated with
the subagent. If the  returned IP address is loopback, or the gethostid()
function failed, then the  subagent uses loopback to connect to the
SNMP agent and issues this message. 

System action
 The Network SLAPM2 subagent tries to connect
to the agent using the loopback  address. 

Operator response
 Contact the TCP/IP administrator. 

System programmer response
 If the Network SLAPM2  subagent should
not use loopback to connect to the  agent, ensure that there is a
non-loopback IP address defined as the primary  interface to the TCP/IP
stack associated with the subagent. The primary  interface is either
the first LINK in the HOME list, or the LINK specified on a  PRIMARYINTERFACE
profile statement. You can use the TSO NETSTAT HOME or  z/OS® UNIX Netstat
-h commands to determine which LINK is the primary  interface for
a stack.
 If the loopback address is used to connect to the
agent, and a password other  than the SNMP agent -c default password
is used by the subagent when  connecting, then the password used by
the subagent must be defined for the  loopback address 127.0.0.1 in
the SNMP agent PW.SRC or SNMPD.CONF file.
 If a non-loopback
IP address is defined as the primary interface, re-create the  problem
with the Network SLAPM2 subagent -d trace option. The trace messages
 indicate the error that the subagent received when it attempted to
retrieve the  primary interface IP address.
