I was wondering if anyone else has ever seen these types of errors on their
TSM servers? We have multiple servers getting the same errors and they are
at different code levels ( i.e. 3.7.3.6, 3.7.3.8, etc):

ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1562): shm_init: Socket read
 failure...br 0, errno 0
ANR8294W Shared Memory session unable to initialize.
ANR0440W Protocol error on session 2804 for node  () -
 invalid verb header received.
ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1562): shm_init: Socket read
 failure...br 0, errno 0
ANR8294W Shared Memory session unable to initialize.
ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1839): No memory available in shared
 memory block
ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1574): Error obtaining storage for data
 buffers
ANR8294W Shared Memory session unable to initialize.
ANR0440W Protocol error on session 2805 for node  () -
 invalid verb header received.
ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1839): No memory available in shared
 memory block
ANR9999D shmcomm.c(1574): Error obtaining storage for data
 buffers
ANR8294W Shared Memory session unable to initialize.
ANR0440W Protocol error on session 2806 for node  () -
 invalid verb header received.

We do have Shared Memory enabled in the dsmserv.opt, but when looking in
the activity log, no sessions are using Shared Memory...excpet the ones
that have no node names like above. When looking through the activity log
before and after these errors, I see no sessions starting with those
session numbers. Its like they are ghost sessions. If anyone could help on
this situation, I would be most greatful. Thanks.

TSM Server: 3.7.3.6
AIX: 4.3.2
