Hi Ian,

The process that you referenced was a NAS NDMP differential backup.  I
also had regular client backups occurring throughout all platforms of
servers such as windows, solaris, aix, etc.

I haven't changed anything in the current environment for approximately a
year, so nothing major has changed.  I also see that expiration was
running and I can see some of the "internal server error detected"
messages, but I'm not sure how to pinpoint what was causing it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Re: HELP: TSM has recycled itself...







What was happening at the time? Check earlier in the act log...

i.e. session 23037 and process 659?

Hi Everyone,

I have a TSM server on AIX 5.3 at 5.2.7.1.  This morning it recycled
itself.  The only message I could find that was suspicious was the
following:

08/29/06 03:30:21     ANR9999D pkthread.c(601): ThreadId<1145> Run-time
                       assertion failed: "inLen >= 0", Thread 1145, File

                       tbcol.c, Line 631. Callchain of previous message:

                       0x0000000100017e90 outDiagf <- 0x0000000100009934

                       _pthread_body <-  (SESSION: 23037, PROCESS: 659)

Does anybody have any suggestions/ideas on what caused the software to
recycle?  Or where can I look to find out?

Thanks in advance!
