Geoff - If TSM is slow to respond to anything on that system, it is likely that the system in general is hurting, perhaps due to a runaway process or virtual storage shortage. Your AIX Error Log and /var/adm/ messages are worth checking, as well as 'topas'. If it's only TSM, then there may be a looping thread in the server process. Do Query PRocess and Query SEssion to see what's happening, and the Activity Log for general circumstances. Don't overlook network causes...where other people in your shop may be pondering the same problem.
