Thank you Fred and Jack for first responses.
With your encouragement in mind I tried to halt the server.
adsm> disable sessions
adsm> halt
However the server just doesn't halt. As documented it seems to try to cancel
the existing sessions (which is not succesful explicitly) and doesn't stop
before this is succesful. In the meantime a few more client session have been
opened this night.
I also tried to cancel the client sessions from the client side.
e.g.
mrclx #> cancel <dsmsched-pid>
The client processes were successfully stopped. However the server sessions as
seen by
adsm> q sess
did not terminate.
Though halt has been issued I stll can connect to the server with a dsmadmc
session.
Regards
Heinrich Hartl
============================================= initial call for help
I've run into a problem and I would be very obliged if someone has an idea what
I could do about it:
ADSM Server for AIX-RS/6000 - Version 3, Release 1, Level 2.20
seems to be in a strange state and nomore doing what its expected to do.
dsmadmc shows the following informations:

## sessions 2072, 2119...2122 have been cancelled however they continue to hang
around
## The sessions arose from dsmadmc commands that would not finish and were
terminated with ^c
## such commands are
## q stg
## q vol
adsm> q pr
Process Process Description Status
Number
-------- -------------------- -------------------------------------------------
95 DELETE FILESPACE Cancel in Progress.
95 DELETE FILESPACE Cancel in Progress.
96 Database Backup Cancel pending.
## Both processes were still executing showing no errors when the problem first
came up
## process status showed around 115k files deleted (prior to my cancel pr 95
request)
## process 96 was an incremental backup of the database with the last message in
the actlog that the output volume was dismounted
Trying to solve the problem (q vol, q stg no more responding) I subsequently
cancelled processes and sessions.
However processes did not end, sessions did not terminate.
I have not yet tried to halt the server.
(I am afraid the halt might hang as well since the processes/sessions do not
terminate)
A suspected reason for the problem is that a high volume of incremenatal backup
data may have been coming in while the delete filespace for a different node was
running.
