We ran a selective backup on 5 of our NetWare 5.1 servers.  After that the
servers would ABEND whenever the scheduled or a command line incremental
backup was issued.  After 3 months of working with TSM "support" I opened an
incident with Novell in June.  At first they said that since it was a third
party NLM causing the issue there was little they could do but would contact
TSM "support".  Last month (September 13th) they took the bull by the horns
and requested a core dump.  They found that the SERVDATA.NDS file had been
corrupted by the Selective backup.  The fix is to rename the SERVDATA.NDS
file.  When the TSM client loads again it loads the DSBACKER.NLM and
recreates the file.
