I have seen TSM nevertheless end up with volsers having 7 digits - where the fumbling fingers of the administrator so typed such a volser into a TSM command. (I can't remember which command; and as you may appreciate, I am loathe to try to reproduce that situation. :-) Look back in your Activity Log history to see what action introduced this anomaly.
