use the dsmcad, client acceptor daemon (managed services). It stops the
scheduler until the backup time is actually scheduled to happen then shuts
it off again. We had the same problem but instead of going through client
system performance analysis we just implemented cad, and the potential
performance issue went away. thanks!.

Are the dsmerror.log or dsmsched.log stored outside temp, and not excluded?

Hi,

a short update on this problem: the process "dsmc sched" is looping, using
50% of 2 proc's, meaning it uses 100% of 1 processor ! (seen with topas)

The loop consists of a serie of LOCK / UNLOCK / LOCK /UNLOCK etc...

Any tips ?

our TSM server: AIX: 4.3 / TSM: 5.1.5.4
the TSM client: AIX: 5.1 / TSM: 5.1.5.15 and also 4.2.1
