Aubrey,
Try reseeding the password between the Oracle client node and the server
with the "adsmpw" utility &/or through TSM?  I am running AIX 4.3.3 and
TSM 3.7, so this may not be applicable for you.

Did the DBA's do any upgrades? Or, has this been running just fine until
now?

        Subject:        Trusted Communication Agent termination



I have a dilemma. We have purchased TSM upgrades for our ADSM 3.1.2.40
servers, but they are not installed yet. I received a message from my DBA
this week. His SQL-Backtrack backups of Oracle were failing with the
following message:

[dtobackup 27287] [dtocheck 27291] obsi/adsm: FATAL: ADSM: dsmInit failed,
unable to validate password, ANS1505E (RC294)  Trusted Communication Agent
has terminated unexpectedly.

I checked the doc, and it said something about incorrect permissions on
the
executables. So, I removed and resintalled TSM 4.1.1 client on this
Solaris
2.8 server. Authentication is turned off on the ADSM server, so I cannot
setup a password.

Does anyone have any hints on what I can try ?

Aubrey
