We're getting exactly the same problem.  TSM Server 5.1.5.1 on W2K with 
SP3.
Currently using a work around of setting  "First Failure" = "Restart 
Service" in the Recovery tab for the TSM Scheduler service.  It does the 
trick, but not happy that we're having to do this.

AW: Error initializing TSM Api






We see the same error on our W2K machines with TSM 5.1.5 using CAD.
No idea who to fix, but it seems to run fine.

Betreff: Error initializing TSM Api


I see this message on a node when the scheduler service starts: Error
initializing TSM Api, unable to verify Registry Password, see 
dsierror.log.
 
1.      There is no dsierror.log being created, I searched all the drives.
2.      I tried updating the password dthrough the GUI and the dsmcutil 
but
the error remains.
3.      I've removed and reinstalled the schedule service but still see 
this
error an still no dsierror.log
 
Client WIN2K TSM V5.1.5.2
Server AIX 4.3.3 TSM V5.1.5.2
 
Anyone else seen this?
