Hello All,

We are running ADSM 3.1.2.50 under Solaris 2.6 and the HSM client version
3.1.0.8 also under Solaris 2.6.

Recently we've developed a problem accessing our space managed files.
Regardless of permissions and ownership we get errors like:

shannon[80]# dsmrecall 16fxyd03.3dv
ADSTAR Distributed Storage Manager
space management Interface - Version 3, Release 1, Level 0.8
(C) Copyright IBM Corporation, 1990, 1999. All Rights Reserved.

 ** Unsuccessful **
ANS4007E Error processing
'/shannon/d3/lgcproject/3dvs/kileuea/16fxyd03.3dv': access to t
he object is denied


I can migrate files but once they are in server storage, cannot recall
them, regardless of when they were migrated.

Other seemingly related symptoms of the problem are that I cannot
successfully reconcile the space managed filesystem, it hangs indefinitely
with no errors reported.  I also cannot generate a list of files for
recall via the HSM GUI.
An incremental backup of the space managed file system also fails with
"Internal Error:  Please contact your service representative", which we
have.  This issue has currently gone to IBM level 2 support but I figured
I would run it by the list as well on the chance that someone else has
experienced this problem.

 We believe it started shortly after we hit the default quota for the HSM
storage pool.  When I discovered that we had done so I immediately doubled
it and files started migrating.  At the time I didn't believe there was
any fallout but in retrospect we don't think anything has been
successfully recalled since then.

The storage pool in question has the following attributes:


q stgpool 3590HSM f=d
ANR2017I Administrator SERVER_CONSOLE issued command: QUERY STGPOOL
3590HSM f=d

               Storage Pool Name: 3590HSM

The Pct Logical 100.0 value has me concerned.  Is that a problem?


Anyway, if anyone has any insight into this problem we would appreciate
comments and suggestions.  Thanks alot.
