I've been advised by TSM support to run these 2 commands against the
nodes that are having problems displaying their archived files &
directories:

UNDO ARCHCONVERSION <node_name>
CONVERT ARCHIVE <node_name>

Has anyone out there had to use similar commands.  Support says this is
a "known" problem.

Thanks again,

Scott
