The problem is that TSM depends on the netdb module, but will not auto-load it 
if not present.  In the past, other modules automatically loaded the netdb 
module, so it was already loaded.  With SP3, Novell modules no longer have the 
same netdb dependencies, so it generally doesn't get loaded anymore.  The 
Tivoli dsmcad module DOES require netdb, but as I stated will not load it 
automatically if not present.  It appears that it just assumes it will be 
there, since it has been in the past.  The result is the "unresolved" error 
message that you're seeing.  Unless IBM fixes the dsmcad module to load netdb 
if not already loaded, you will need to load it manually before loading dsmcad. 
 In my autoexec.ncf, I use the following three lines:

search add sys:tivoli\tsm\client\ba
netdb
dsmcad

Has anybody tried to running the 5.1.5.15 client on a Netware 6 SP3 node?
One of my nodes was upgraded from Netware 6 SP2 to SP3 last night.  Now when
we try to load dsmcad it says unresolved on the console.  The TSA600.nlm is
loaded & sys:tivoli\tsm\client\ba is added to the search path.  I also get
the same error when I try to load dsmc.
I am running TSM 5.1.1.6 on AIX 4.3.3.
