Pat,
I'm running 3.1.2.40 on AIX 4.3.2 (yes, were upgrading shortly) and I've
encountered a similar problem. What happens is that after a DB backup the
recovery log is not reset to zero and will eventually fill up. The only way
around this problem is to halt the server and then restart. I talked to IBM
about this and it has been fixed in 3.1.2.58 and subsequent *SM versions. Were
planning to upgrade to TSM 4.1.1 shortly, so in the interim I'm living with it.

We have never seen any issues with long running ADSM servers
(note we're further down level than you are!):

Folks who recommend periodic reboots and restarts are offering
solutions that simply mask or alleviate any problems that may
exist.
