We are occasionally seeing some odd behavior in our TSM environment. We write incoming client files to sequential disk storage pools. Almost all of our client nodes use the default maxnummp value of
AHA - so I am not loosing my mind (at least in this situation). I too have been seeing clients getting >3-sessions eventhough the NODE maxnumpoints is 1! I was always under the impression that maxnum
Might want to check resourceutil settings as that limits the number of sessions clients try to setup. It should match maxnummp or be lower. Op 31 aug. 2016 22:21 schreef "Zoltan Forray" <zforray AT v

Yes, do not use a RESOURCEUTILIZATION higher than the MAXNUMMP setting. Having said that, there is an APAR that might ("might" is the operative word!) be a match for this issue, IT16004: https://www.

We see this behavior. It happens once per week or so, usually with Windows servers, but not exclusively. I've seen servers with 20-30-40 sessions. It happens with enough regularity that I put in a sc
Thanks for the info. Yes the user does(did) have RESOURCEUTILIZATION 4 configured. I note the APAR you refer to is still open. It refers to v7.1 but how far back does it go? The client recently upgra

Hi Zoltan, Yes, if MAXNUMMP is too low to accommodate a non-default RESOURCEUTILIZATION value, then while the backup should work okay, you may see some warning messages about there being insufficient
Hi Andy, But my point is that the user is getting whatever they set for RESOURCEUTILIZATION vs what I set for MAXNUMPOINT, without the noise. This user is running 4-multi terabyte backup streams sinc

Hi Zoltan, Is your user doing proxied sessions? If yes, where is the MAXNUMMP configured: on the agent node (NODENAME aaaaa)? Or the target node (ASNODENAME bbbbb)? You need to ensure that the target

Keep in mind maxnummp is ignored when going to random access storage like disk pool. Op 7 sep. 2016 15:07 schreef "Zoltan Forray" <zforray AT vcu DOT edu>:
Say what? Where is that documented? From the book: *Server settings take precedence over client settings. If the client resourceutilization option value exceeds the value of the server MAXNUMMP setti
