Hi Bill,
Apologies, I had not noticed the 'conntype NONE' parameter
Though worth mentioning that command still failed, this was because the fileregistry xml file had not synchronized to the node!
I assume bacause of https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/apar/PI83149
Fix: copy the fileregistry xml file to the profile, run wsadmin commands as you suggested
Many thanks
