Hello TSM experts,

I've got a TSM server 4.1.4.1 running on Windows NT SP6a. In the weekend a full 
export is taken with the command:

export server filedata=backupactive devclass=DLTCLASS1 scratch=no 
volumenames=000375,000383,000009

This has been running fine for quiet a period (a few years), but now the export 
fails with following messages in the activity log:

07/26/2003 05:18:11   ANR9999D xibf.c(664): Return code 87 encountered in

Does anybody have an idea what is going wrong here? What is the mentioned 
return code 87? Is this a known APAR fixed in a later release of TSM (the 
client didn't want an upgrade yet).

Thanks for any hints, guidelines how to solve this problem!

regards,
