Hi list, environ is TSM server 4.1.2.12 on S/390 with 3494 library connected via FICON, 3590E tape drives, 60+ SQL Servers using TDP 2.2 and Oracle server on AIX 5.1 with 1,5TB of backup data (no Oracle TDP is being used), the 390 is connected via gigabit ethernet to the clients, the issue is when the backup sequence starts at night, the TSM server process "freezes" from time to time, that is, it doesn´t receives data nor responds to command line, it lasts for some seconds and then it comes to live again, have you seen this kind of behavior before? it doesn´t prevent the backups to complete but affects the total backup window and we are trying to isolate the error, 390 guys say that it seems that this "contention" occurs when TSM tries to access 3590 drives, is it normal? did I misconfigured something? any comment will be helpful.
Thanks
Luis Tapia
