I have also seen paging space issues my server that runs only TSM. 

OS: AIX 5.1 ML 6
TSM server: 5.1 and 5.2.3.1
Memory: 2GB
Space: 2 GB (now 3 GB)

We have logged cases with IBM, to no avail. I have check all the settings 
myself. IBM has checked everything and found no problems. I'd also be 
interested in any help.

I'm running into issues with paging space utilization on my AIX based TSM 
system. 

Host OS                AIX 5.2 
TSM Version                5.2.2.3 
Physical Memory        12GB 
Dual CPU P630         
TSM Database 1         36.6GB 
TSM Database 2        59.7GB 

I have two TSM instances running on the same box and recently (after a reboot) 
I've seen the paging space utilization increase dramatically. I've gotten to 
the point where I have to stop one of the instances of TSM and let the system 
recover paging space, then restart TSM.  Anyone have any tips? I do think I may 
have my bufpoolsize settings a little high, at 1GB for each instance. I haven't 
experimented with lowering these settings. My cache hit is 99% consistently.

AIX Memory Settings: See Attached File (memsettings.txt)
