Error Host unknown UNUSED

When using any of the lfc-* commands, you get this error:

$ lfc-ls /grid
send2nsd: NS009 - fatal configuration error: Host unknown: UNUSED
/grid: Host not known

Solution

You need to set the $LFC_HOST environment variable to point to your LFC server. For instance:

$ export LFC_HOST=lfc.grid.sara.nl
