Have you tried a -console session prior to issuing halt? Jim Schneider

I had to kill -9 to stop the dsmserv process. I restarted the server (via service .. start) and there didn't seem to be any damage done. However, attempting to stop/halt it, again, produced the same result - dsmserv using 200% CPU and after 2-hours I had to kill -9. So, obviously there are big enough changes in 6.3.3 vs 6.3.2, to cause problems like this, since none of my 6.3.x or 6.2.x servers exhibit this behavior. Any suggestions on how to diagnose this "issue" before I contact IBM and open a PMR?
