Hello,

The workaround is documented in APAR IX77929.
Here it is:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
ADSM Development has recently discovered an incompatibility
ADSM Development has recently discovered an incompatibility
between an ADSM V3 Server and an ADSMConnect Agent for
Microsoft Exchange Server product and try-and-buy.
When attempting to store multiple files whose total size
exceeds 4 Gbytes within a single transaction the server
will fail the transaction.  As a temporary work around
perform the following command either from the server console
command line or from an Administrative Command Line client:

 update node node_name fileag=no

IMPORTANT! The above command should ONLY be used for
           MS Exchange Agent nodes.

This incompatibility will be fixed in ADSM Server PTF 3.1.1.3.
This PTF will be available for download from our
ADSM Web site at

 http://www.ibm.com/storage/adsm/adsercli.htm

When the PTF becomes available, please install it and then
perform the following command either from the server console
command line or from an Administrative Command Line client:

 update node node_name fileag=yes

IMPORTANT!!  The above command MUST be performed in order
             to ensure optimal storing of objects onto
             the ADSM server.
