Hy all,

last days we had (and have) some problems with clients on Novell.
Every night one or two (of about 20) novell-server hang after starting a
scheduled backup-operation.
The logs say 'unable to connect ...' and it looks as if the client
continuesly tries to transfer data (but gets no connection to the server).
On the TSM-server no session to the client is alive after 900 sec
(CommTimeOut-Parameter).
If we then try to unload the TSM-Client with "unload dsmcad.nlm" and "unload
dsmc.nlm" a message pops up, that you should be sure that there is no
activity on the client, otherwise the system may hang. If you now unload the
nlm's the system breaks and reboots.

Has anybody seen this before and knows how to solve this problem

Thanks

Christoph
