I've upgraded my older ADSM 3.7 Novell 4.11 clients to TSM 3.7.2 . Most
of the servers work fine but a few Novell servers keep hanging and in the
SYSTEM CONSOLE this message keeps coming up.
An NLM has been loaded that does not allow Low Priority Threads to be run.
Low Priority threads are used for file compression, ect. Set 'Upgrade Low
Priority Threads' to ON or unload the NLM.
Now first of all I'm not running compression on any of my 12 Novell
Servers. It's only a couple of servers that giving me problems. At first I
though it was memory but two servers are about 512 Meg of memory, below is
a copy the the DSM.OPT file used.

* You may also exclude some operating system files. A recommended
* list is at the bottom of this file. These files typically are
* system level files that, even if backed up, could not be properly
* restored. If they are restored, they could corrupt the operation
* of the system. If you decide to use the list, simply remove the
* '*'.

* NetWare Screen option
* ---------------------------------------------------------------
* The following option instructs the NetWare client to destroy
* the ADSM screen when quitting the dsmc program.
*
* NWWAIT NO
* NetWare user ID and password option
* --------------------------------------------------------------
* The following option specifies a user ID and password to connect
* to a local or remote NetWare resource (server or NDS tree). The
* user ID must have NetWare supervisory equivalence. Use this
* option for each resource which will be managed by ADSM.
*
* If this option is not specified in the client options file, ADSM
* will check for a user ID and password in an encrypted file (if
* NWPWFILE is set to YES). If a correct user ID and password
* is not found in a file (or NWPWFILE is set to NO), ADSM will prompt
* for a user ID and password when a backup or archive operation
* is initiated.
*
* NWUSER server_1_name\user:password
* NWUSER server_2_name\user:password
* NWUSER nds_tree_name\user:password
* NetWare user ID and password file
* --------------------------------------------------------------
* The following option specifies that the user ID and password used
* to connect to a NetWare resource (server or NDS tree) will be stored
* in an encrypted file in the installation directory after the intiial
* prompt. An encrypted file will be created for each resource with the
* extension .PWD
*
* NWPWFILE YES
* Silencing screen output
* -----------------------------------------------------------------
* Use the QUIET option to keep messages from being displayed on the
* NetWare console and the schedule log file. This option will enhance
* the performance during scheduled backups.
*
Verbose quiet
* Note that by using this option, schedule event windows, schedule
* statistics and errors during schedule processing will still be
* written to the schedule log file.
*
* If this option is not specified, the default VERBOSE will be taken.
