Not sure about AIX, however I experienced this problem when I upgraded my Windows TSM Server. The database started to get corrupted and I needed to issue some cleaning commands against the database

Did somebody ever had similar problem? Archive from AIX node is hanging up. For half an hour it sent only 1.5k from 50Mb. We repeat the situation many times and the result is always the same. The act log shows the only sesion start message, and 'q ses' shows IdleW constantly. The Archive is the only TSM process running on the node.There are no problem with performance neither on network nor AIX machines. We run TSM4.1.4 version on AIX4.3. There are no new messages in either log files server's or client's. Yuriy Us
