Thanks for the response.

Here are the server messages I found, around that time:

06/09/04 20:34:28     ANR9999D imutil.c(4127): ThreadId<42> Primary row
for Backup.Objects object 0.233632121 not found(rc = 2).
06/09/04 20:34:28     ANR9999D imgroup.c(1121): ThreadId<42> Error 19

06/09/04 20:34:38     ANR0403I Session 1130 ended for node

FYI, in case this is server related, it is AIX 5.2.1.3 !

Re: Useless (to me) error needs explanation......






What messages do you see in the server actlog when this occurs? The only
APAR that I know of that comes close to matching this is IC38377, but that
is supposed to be fixed at the level you are running (I'm not convinced
that's it, either, but it's worth a shot...). Make sure your API is at the
current level as well. Otherwise I suggest contacting IBM technical
support for further assistance.

As to the message.... yes, not very helpful. API messages are sometimes
intended more for application developers; so for TSM application
developers (be it our own Data Protection products or other vendor
products that use the TSM API), the message may make more sense. With that
said:

- If the message is geared for other than end user, we should indicate as
much.

- Message explanation should NOT restate the message text. It should be
"None" if there is no additional explanation, or else try to offer
additional insight into the error.

- User response needs to be.... er.... usable.   :-)    Caveat: it won't
always be able to give you a *solution*, but it should always at least
point in you a direction where you can move the problem forward.

We are aware of these issues and efforts to address them are underway,
even as I type this response

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
