I don't know what others' experiences have been, but I have run across something interesting. It appears that Netware does not tolerate more than 3 concurrent DSM threads. I can reproduce Netware abends when there are 4 or more DSM processes. As near as I can tell, the Netware modules that chokes is FILESYS.NLM. I discover this while the Netware client had the following processes going: DSMC SCHED, a web-based backup with DSMCAD going, a regular DSMC session (which was not doing anything), and a restore coming from another Netware node. I also could abend the node while running a backup from its console with RESOURCEUTILIZATION set to 5, which set up four sessions with the TSM server. The environment is: Netware 5.1 with the latest service packs TSM client 4.1.2 TSM server 4.1.2 (Windows NT) -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
