All those check out fine...going to reboot the adsm server machine
to see if that corrects the problem (when in doubt hit the button!).

Probably.
1.  Find out the address of your ADSM server - the admin may have set up
a DNS alias for it, or find out the numeric IP address.
2.  From the AIX command line, make sure you can PING that address.
3.  Look in usr/lpp/adsm/bin/dsm.sys.  The TCPSERVERADDRESS parm should
specify the alias name or IP address of the ADSM server.
(If you don't have a dsm.sys, you will probably find a dsm.sys.smp.  You
have to copy dsm.sys.smp to dsm.sys and customize it for your AIX node.
Same for dsm.opt.sys.)
Hope that helps.

        We're just setting this up on our AIX node, and we get the
        above message. I know what the text of the message means
        but don't see how it applies to us. Can anyone offer a
        novice some help here?
        What do I look for? Is a config file incorrectly setup?
        Thanks
