I seem to recall seeing messages in the forum about this before.

Try searching on www.adsm.org. As I recall there might have been a patch for
PCanywhere, but I could be wrong.

        Has anyone over noticed strange behavior when using PCAnywhere and
the ADSM
        Windows NT GUI
         backup client? We have experienced this problem where, if we don't
keep moving
        the mouse once an a while,
         the backup seems to freeze in a sendw state.  At first I thought
PCAnywhere was
        not detecting changes on
         the screen and the refreshed window would appear when you moved the
mouse.
        Today we started a restore
        and walked away. An hour later the session had been in sendw status
and hardly
        any data was transfered.
        As soon as we moved the mouse we could see the session start running
from the
        admin client. No prompt
        from ADSM was displayed on the client like, do you want to replace
files, etc.
        The session just seemed to
        be frozen. Wierd eh?  Anyone else using PCAnywhere experienced
anything like
        this and if so what did you
        do to fix it? We are running ADSM NT client level 3.1.0.6 with ADSM
for MVS
        V3.1.2.40. I also realize that
        using the web client is an alternative but we didn't use it because
there is a
        bug at 3 1.0.6 with restoring an
        entire inactive directory and all its files by clicking the
selection box next
        to the directory.

        Thanks
