I'm running Novell NetWare v4.11 with SP6 along with ADSM client Version 3
Release 1, Level 0.7 PTF IP21617 and ADSM server MVS Server Version 3,
Release 1, Level 2.0.

Every two to three weeks I get an abend on one of my NetWare servers like
the one below:

Server VALIANT halted Tuesday, January 11, 2000  12:09:56 am
Abend 1: Server-4.11a: Free called with a memory block that has a null
resource tag.
Registers:
    CS = 0008 DS = 0010 ES = 0010 FS = 0010 GS = 0010 SS = 0010
    EAX = 00000000 EBX = 1B493010 ECX = 002AF000 EDX = 1F97F010
    ESI = 00000000 EDI = 1F9756CC EBP = 1F975690 ESP = 1F975684
    EIP = 00000000 FLAGS = 00007246
Running process: DSMC.NLM        0 Process
Created by: DSMC.NLM
Stack pointer: 1F9756D8
Stack limit: 1F96B010

It's always "Free called with a memory block that has a null resource tag."
and it's always DSMC.NLM running.  The abend always occurs while ADSM is
doing its scheduled backup.

Am I correct that ADSM is causing the NetWare abend?  Is this a known ADSM
problem?
