Subject: ADSM Recovery log growing

1. I have noticed a condition where the ADSM recovery log keeps growing
   when a client backup process is waiting for access to a tape being used
   by a migration process.  The log's %Util goes up until either the migration
   process releases the tape or the log hits 99.9% which causes the server to
   perform "recovery log compression".  Then the log goes back to below 1%.

2. I can recreate this regularly by backing up two large Solaris clients
   from scratch.  Has anybody else seen this?  We have a similar, but less
   well defined problem on one ADSM Version 1 server which causes the
   server to hang and all sessions to fail.

3. We are running ADSM/6000 2.1.0.7 on AIX 4.1.4 with collocation on.
   Backups go to disk with files over 5MB direct to tape.  The recovery
   log is 800MB on mirrored raw disks.  TXNGROUPMAX=40, MOVEBATCHSIZE=128,
   MOVESIZETHRESH=100, TXNBYYELIMIT=25600, LOGMODE=NORMAL.
