[ADSM-L] Problems with Oracle TDP

Gents, I'm having some weirdness with the TDP that's driving me crazy
because my DBQ is wearing me out about it.

The problem is that we're seeing errors that a transaction failed,
mainly with the "Requested data was not found" errors.  My contention is
that these jobs are getting retried, as was the case in times past.
However, I don't see that in the logs in later versions of the TDP.

 

Here are some snips from the logs:
>From dsmerror.log:

08/07/10   23:00:31 ANS0278S The transaction will be aborted.

08/07/10   23:00:31 ANS1309I The requested data is offline.

08/07/10   23:00:33 ANS1303E Client ended transaction

 

-- These are warnings, unlike the ones on 8/7 and 8/10

Information from the Client/Server:

Client OS:  AIX 5.3.11

TSM BA Client: 6.2.1

TSM Server: 5.5.3

TSM TDP: 5.5.2

 

I found the doc about the "Requested Data not found" and I understand
what that means.  However, the TDP is reporting the backup completed,
(as shown by looking at the details of the filespaces), and this is
coming from a full backup.  

My stance is that the backups are getting done, and that this
transaction is being retried, but the DBA doesn't see it that way, and
since I can't show it definitively in the log I need some help on this.
