APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The host command fails to match hostname provided when netcd is running if the case is different from the /etc/hosts file. /etc/hosts 1.1.1.1 test 2.2.2.2 test61 # host TEST test is 1.1.1.1 # startsrc -s netcd 0513-059 The netcd Subsystem has been started. Subsystem PID is 405634. # host TEST host: 0827-801 Host name TEST does not exist.
Local fix
Either disable netcd or make sure both upper AND lower case versions of the hostname are stated in the /etc/hosts, or related db file.
Problem summary
host cmd becomes case sensitive when netcd is running.
Problem conclusion
Changed hash algorithm and compare logic.
Temporary fix
