Hello All,

Yesterday, my linux server got hardware problem, and we fixed it,
After reboot my TSM server and prepare to backup data, I get error:

Node Name: NETAPP
ANS2050E TSM needs to prompt for the password but cannot prompt  because the 
process is running in the background.
ANS2050E TSM needs to prompt for the password but cannot prompt  because the 
process is running in the background.
ANS1025E Session rejected: Authentication failure

I find answer in  TSM "Message", and  say "You may use RUNASSERVICE option with 
PASSWORDACCESS PROMPT. Turn off RUNASSERVICE to be able to get prompted"

So should I modify "passwordaccess generate" to "passwordaccess runasservice" ?

But why it was ok before this fix ???

Any idea?   Many thanks!

This is my dsm.sys:
