Hi all.. A few months back we upgraded to TSM 5.2.6 (AIX) and since then we've noticed some client sessions "hang" from time to time. These stalls do not appear to be related to a particular client or proccess. We've seen similar behaviour on both on WINDOWS and AIX clients, on archives sessions and restore sessions.
For example, right now I'm seeing this session (a restore session) - 1,071 Tcp/Ip SendW 23.7 M 4.7 G 1.3 K Node WinNT This particular client is a W2K 5.1.5 client. Typically, when we identify a session like this. We cancel the session, then restart it and it will run successfully. The VOLUME the session 'wants' is loaded in a drive and is seen as such by both TSM (q mo) and by AIX using the mtlib command. The particular session state is always either SendW or RecvW. Usually these situations occur when the system is busy but not always. I realize it is a general question but I'm wondering if I missed a partiuclar APAR or fix... or if someone has experience with 5.2.6 being a little flaky in this regard. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance!! Scott I
