 Hello,
 We have just installed TSM 6.3 on AIX 7. We are seeing a serious
 slowness when we login to TSM with DSMADMC on AIX. The ID prompt comes
 up fast enough but it takes anywhere from 6 to 30 seconds for the
 password prompt to display. Once in everything is fine. If I use the
 Windows DSMADMC to access the AIX TSM 6.3 server I do not see the
 problem, the password prompt displays immediately. If I run DSMADMC from
 our TSM 5.5 AIX server to access the TSM 6.3 Aix server the password
 prompt comes up immediately. Putting passing the ID/PW to DSMADMC does
 not help. My peers at other sites are not seeing this issue on their TSM
 6.3 servers. This is killing my scripts. I've search ADSM.ORG, but did
 not find anything that helped. Does anyone have any suggestions on how
 to correct this problem?


What I found that would fix this issue on our AIX host on a P7 was documented 
here:
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/entdocview.wss?uid=swg1IC80341

i.e.
* make sure GSKit version 8.0.14.13 (or newer) is applied,then
* export the following environment variables:
(gsk8capicmd_64 -version)

*export ICC_IGNORE_FIPS=YES
*export ICC_TRNG=ALT

I would probably add it to the Root's .profile and also add it to the TSM 
servers instance's environment.
In my case, that was adding those 2 exports to the 
/home/tsminst1/sqllib/userprofile .

Re: DSMADMC login slow on TSM 6.3 update

2013-12-18 Thread Andrew Raibeck
Hi Ben,

Take a look at this one:

http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IC96357

A fix is planned for TSM level 6.4.2. Meanwhile, see if any of the
workarounds described in the APAR provide relief. If that does not help, I
recommend contacting IBM support for further assistance with this APAR, as
it is suspect #1.

Best regards,

- Andy

Just a suggestion, but firstly start looking at DNS/hosts name
resolution - including forward and reverse lookups for the client and
whatever you have in dsm.sys as the server hostname.
