As of 9/22... Yep... this is a problem -- which we have, also, recently experienced!
It appears to be related to a level-sensitive ssi (daemon) that runs on the TSM server, arbitrating communication with the ACSLS server -- according to Stephen, after discussing this with him (and researching thru many trial-and-error cycles of testing last week). Won't know for sure until we upgrade to 5.1; in the meantime have a Sev. 2 PMR open, and developed a work-around that involves clearing the locks and restarting the rc.acs_ssi before restarting TSM server. I understand numerous STK customers accept this as "normal operating procedure", but I disagree,,, and hope to determine that it is a maint. level issue, as it was for you. STATUS_LOCKID_NOT_FOUND is another symptom of the problem; main issue is "ANR8851 Initialization failed for library 9310LIB..." -- also, AUDIT LIBRARY fails, even after clearing the locks so we can use the drives! Typical message sequence upon starting TSM: ANR8860W Volume D00000 is already locked by . ANR8852E Initialization failed for ACSLS library 9310LIB. PVR & MMS trace sent to Tivoli Level 2 support on Monday; will await their response, probably in another week. TSM -- 4.2.2.10 ACSLS - 6.1 SN6k -- 2.01 Fast-forward to October --- STK solved a separate problem with ACSLS-6.1 that "fixes" this problem; seems the code didn't properly maintain the owning server's identity (ie, ACSACCESSID?), so at TSM restart init failed due to mismatch with the server that owned the existing volume locks... we are sssoooo happy, now!

I have recyled the TSM server and the ACSLS daemon, the ACSLS app and server, and I even rebooted both boxes. Still no luck. Any ideas? TSM 5.1.1.1 Solaris 8 ACSLS 6.0.1 Thanks for any help.
