Was something else running that was using one of the tape drives you normally use? The wait is basically saying that you exceeded the number of connections specified in the exhpdm parms. (CONNECTIONS x DEVICELIMIT) where connections is the number of conncurrent dumps per drive and devicelimit is the max number of drives, although this can also be limited by availability - thus the first question. How are you controlling the number of dumps that are executing concurrently?
