<domainname> {<ip_addr>,<ip_addr>,.... }

single NIS domain are supported per Data Mover. A Data Mover can
support only one NIS domain.
Each time an NIS domain is configured, the previous configuration is
overwritten.

with multiple NIS servers. If you configure only a single NIS server, a
problem with this NIS server could result in data unavailability.

address. Multiple hostnames or IP addresses can be queried. Prior to
performing a query, the NIS server must be activated and

server is not operational.
