Hi all

This is a big issue for me.

We run linux datamovers to back up our VMWare vms.  Passexp is set to zero, 
but, for some reason every so often the password tries to change.  It does this 
in the middle of a VE Schedule and all subsequent backups for that schedule 
fail with a security error ( sorry I have no detail at the moment).  We reset 
the node password and recycle the dsmcad and its solved until next time.

I have not subbed a support ticket as it is intermittent and not reproducible 
on demand and also because the likely fix would be to update the client and we 
are wedged by backlevel vcenter and certain bugs at the current client version. 
Server is 7.1.1 client is 7.1.2 with VE at 7.1.1.

We've had this issue intermittently as well, but not often enough to spend time 
tracking it down. We just have an alert that makes a ticket if an ANR0424W 
message is seen in the TSM server activity log.
