Call IBM. In our case the fix involved manually changing values in the TSM
database. It's not something I'd want to do without Tivoli Support on the
other end of the phone. We actually ran some commands, and sent them the
output. Then, they called back and talked us through the exact steps to
take. The problem was fixed rather quickly once we got them involved.

Hello,
Please, let me know what the fix is, we have had this problem in the past
and we reinstalled some clients.

Hmm,

this troubles me a bit. It's a good thing to warn people about the
dangers of certain operations, especially those infrequently used. OTOH
I don't think not documenting those in the manual is the right approach,
better to have good documentation than to have to explain these things
over the phone when the procedure is needed...
