Lawrence, We're running TSM 5.1.7.0 on AIX 4.3.3.
What we've seen is that if a TSM process that reserved the drive dies, those reservations are not cancelled. I had an export job abort on dismount failure, and *three days* later the input and output mount point reservations were still listed in the Q MOUNT report, even though the export was not restarted. It took a TSM reboot to clear those reservations. Could that be the cause of your problem?
