We have a server that has been getting the following sporadic dsmerror.log errors:
12/19/09 14:07:02 ANS9020E Could not establish a session with a TSM server or client agent. The TSM return code is -50. 12/19/09 14:07:02 ANS1017E Session rejected: TCP/IP connection failure 12/19/09 14:13:00 ANS9020E Could not establish a session with a TSM server or client agent. The TSM return code is -50. 12/19/09 14:13:00 ANS1017E Session rejected: TCP/IP connection failure Normally, backups work just fine. We just get this in spurts. I'm thinking it's a DNS resolution problem in the ip lookup for dsm.sys:"tcpserveraddress tsm4.fenetwork.com". q) Is there some way to get the BA client to list the IP address it's trying to use?
