Data Domain connectivity to IBM iSeries (AS/400) as NFS mount

We are attempting to use a DD-530 as a means of writing iSeries save files to it mounted as an NFS.  I am able to successfully mount the NFS on the iSeries but I have been unsuccessful in being able to perform any operation to the mount from the iSeries.

Does anyone else have the connectivity scenario and the issue that I have described?

What follows is a chronological sequence of iSeries commands and responses from the DDR-530 as captured by the log watch debug/ddfs.info command.

The net effect of all that preceded is not being able to read or write to the mounted NFS on the iSeries.

Did you get this resolved? If you wanted to send Save Files to the datadomain, I would have mounted the NFS to a windows server and then scripted a CL to ftp to the Windows server.
