When starting the SA server on NetWare, I am getting the message “Could not determine local host name”, and the server does not start. What does this mean?
A. When starting up the TCP/IP link, SA asks the operating system for its own IP address. If the OS doesn’t know its IP address, we cannot listen for packets. To make sure the OS knows its IP address, either add an entry into the sys:etc/hosts file for this server, or use the MYIP parameter, for example: load dbsrv50 … -x tcpip{MYIP=1.2.3.4} This is only an issue for SA 5.5. ASA 6.0 and later versions determine the IP address of the machine differently.
