That's a tough problem. While not specifically for TSM, I've scripted several things for other systems. 1) through the cmd in background and have a loop that waits for it to complete. If too long, throw an error. 2) count how many dsmadmc cmds are running on the box. If over some number, throw an error.

We have been monitoring our instances for some time by connectiong, doing a command, and exiting. We ran into a situation with an AIX hang, where the connection was made, but then the scripts hung because nothing came back. How are you checking for instance availability, and TSM server availability?
