Although almost no response to my question I'd like you to know we finally
solved the problem.
It appeared that TCPIP.HOSTS.SITEINFO had the same DCB as
TCPIP.HOSTS.ADDRINFO (lrecl 156).
After deleting the files and recreating them with MAKESITE command the
ADDRINFO file had lrecl 56.
Then everything worked fine and the local host table was found and being
used.
Although I think it's strange that in the situation it did not work there is
no message indicating the ADDRINFO file is unusable instead of "Unable to
find any local host table".

Subject: TCPIP local hosts table not found
I have a problem getting a local hosts table being used .
I generated a local host table with the MAKESITE command.
It generated datasets TCPIP.HOSTS.xxxxINFO datasets.
Settings in TCPDATA (member):
DATASETPREFIX=TCPIP
LOOKUP DNS LOCAL
When in TSO I try to PING a hostname only known in the local hosts table I
get "unknown host"
Using the TESTSITE command the name is resolved.
I put on TRACE RESOLVER in TCPDATA.
The trace output tells me:
res_init Resolver values:
Global Tcp/Ip Dataset = None
Default Tcp/Ip Dataset = None
Local Tcp/Ip Dataset = SYS1.TCPPARMS(TCPDATA)
Translation Table = TCPIP.STANDARD.TCPXLBIN
UserId/JobName = BAKKERG
Caller API = TCP/IP Sockets Extended
Caller Mode = EBCDIC
(L) DataSetPrefix = TCPIP
(L) HostName = XAT3
(L) TcpIpJobName = TCPIP
(L) DomainOrigin = rf.rabobank.nl
(L) NameServer = xxx.xx.xxx.10
xxx.xx.xxx.11
xxx.xx.xxx.10
xxx.xx.xxx.11
(*) NsPortAddr = 53 (L) ResolverTimeout = 5
(L) ResolveVia = UDP (L) ResolverUdpRetries = 1
(*) Options NDots = 1
(L) Trace Resolver (*) SockNoTestStor
(*) AlwaysWto = NO (L) MessageCase = MIXED
(L) LookUp = DNS LOCAL
After it tries to resolve the name through the DNS's there is the nessage:
GetAddrInfo Searching Local Tables for IPv4 Address
Unable to find any local host table
I must be missing something simple.
Any idea's what I am doing wrong ?
