Those errors also occur in TSM server version 5.2.1.3. Luckily
the scheduled clients immediately connect back up and complete their
backups. It's annoying, but not really broken.

Hi list,

I've just upgraded my server from 5.1.6.2 to 5.2.2.1, and noticed a
strange behaviour during the start of our backups : it looks like all
nodes associated to scheduled backups are returning an error message
saying the connection was severed, as soon as they've been contacted by
the server. On client side I have "schedmode prompted" for all the nodes
that sent me this error. Activity log looks like :
Date/Time                Message

This is just a snippet of it, but I got the same message for all
scheduled backups defined on our server and associated with several
nodes. Backup operation though, was performed properly. I never saw that
message before, so I suppose it is related to our upgrade ... What gives
? An additional question : what does that "(SESSION: 198)" mean, that is
repeated for all operations ? Thanks for your input ! Arnaud Brion
