Would have been nice if you told us what platform you are using...On any flavor 
of Unix, just halt TSM, even it you have to do it with a kill.  Start again, 
but run it manually by just cd'ing to /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin and running 
./dsmserv.  After TSM starts, you will be at the TSM prompt without having to 
enter a password/username, see if you can trouble shoot it from there.  If not, 
call IBM.

Hi *SM'ers,

I have a problem with our freshly upraded TSM server (is now 5.2.2.1) :
as I was trying to delete an old empty storage pool, using the web
interface, I did not got any response anymore. I then tried to log in,
using "dsmadmc", but once I provided my username the server would not go
further, and did even not ask me my password ... Opening a new web
session is also impossible : server page is there, but I can't log in.
Server is still alive, as I can see some activity using topas, but I
can't log in anymore to control what's happening.
Could anyone help me ? 

Arnaud Brion
