If you can't make your TSM recovery log larger, then perhaps you need
a new TSM server instance.  Sounds like your problem is that you've
got other activity that is causing the head of the log to advance, in
combination with this long-lasting transaction that is pinning the
tail of the log.  You can either speed up the tail, or slow down the
head, or make the log larger.
