Has anyone else been experiencing an issue with client backup hangs on either 
the Win32 or Win64 v5.4 B/A clients?

TSM server is 5.4.1.0, client is either 5.4.1.2 or 5.4.1.2.  There's nothing 
obvious in the error log, and the dsmsched.log just shows the client stopping 
in mid-backup with no further progress messages.

The schedule is currently running off of the client acceptor (managedservices 
webclient schedule), but running the scheduler standalone does not seem to help.

When this occurs, the scheduler service will still be running (normally stops 
after backup completes when under control of the CAD).

Stopping/restarting services will make it run for another couple of days, then 
it hangs again.

It appears to be related to either SYSTEMSTATE or SYSTEMSERVICES...if I exclude 
these, it seems to work OK.

Temporarily, I'm using a postnschedulecmd that stops/restarts the CAD.  This 
works around the problem, but is obviously a hack.

dsm.opt file:

TCPCLIENTADDRESS mynode
TCPSERVERADDRESS        tsm01
TCPCLIENTPORT           1501
NODENAME                mynode

SCHEDMODE       PROMPTED
PASSWORDACCESS  GENERATE
MANAGEDSERVICES WEBCLIENT SCHEDULE

POSTNSCHEDULECMD        c:\progra~1\tivoli\tsm\baclient\restart_services.cmd
