  Gerrit,

  did you look at the first entry of the candidatelist? I found three years ago
  a giant bug in the HSM-processing. If the first entry of the
  candidatelist was a 'bad entry', HSM-processing stopped, without given any
  error- or warning message (which, btw, HSM-processing still doesn't do, even
  after 3 years and many releases later...).
  That 'bad entry' arised when there was some silly control character in the
  file name. To make it clear to IBM I just put the string "HSM will stop now"
  as the first "filename" into the candidate-list. And indeed, HSM did
  stopped...
  This was a bug in version 2, but as we all knows, sometimes 'old' bugs come
  back the moment you don't expect them....

  Cheers,
  Henk ten Have.

  PS. This problem doesn't exist at 3.1.2.40, I just tested it, but I'm not
      sure about 3.1.2.50....
