we have a TSM server under AIX 5.1 and a client AIX under SAN network.

when we make a backup of the file sytem /main we get this message :

When posting, please include TSM server and client software levels.
(Some problems are readily solved by software boosts.)

This is an obscure error, so you won't get many responses.
I would inspect the Activity Log for that time period to look for
some indication of the problem there.  Beyond that, perform
Query Filespace for that node and look for something suspicious
with that file system name, and in the same theme check the client
for any odd specs it may have influencing the processing of that
file system (especially any Virtualmountpoint specs).
If nothing turns up, start experimenting to probe the problem, as
in doing 'dsmc archive /main/something' and/or
'dsmc selective /main/something' to see what works, what doesn't,
and what results on the server.
