I had this happen once on one of my TSM servers running 5.1.5.2. It just
looked like the scheduler process on the TSM server gave up and didn't even try to
contact any of the clients.
I restarted the TSM services on the server and have not seen it since ( that
was about 2 months ago). My intention was to open up a case if it happened again, but
"knock on wood" it has not happened again.

Hi David,
Haven't seen this on v5.1.1.6 -- would sure like to know how it gets resolved... have
a customer running 5.1.6.2 since last week, and wants to start using server-prompted
mode (for more precise scheduling). Keep us posted, eh?!!
Thanks,
Don

Subject: Prompted mode backups did not start
We've been running prompted mode backups for a few months and have been
running the AIX TSM Server 5.1.6.2 for about a month and life has been
good. Last night, NONE of our prompted mode backups started. There
were no server side "ANR2561I Schedule prompter contacting VHOST3
(session 23462) to start a scheduled operation." messages that we
normally get at the start of the backup window. Other than backups not
being started, the server appears to be responding normally and complete
the daily administrative tasks without error. There are no entries in
the client dsmsched or dsmerror logs for the clients that did not run.
Our lone polling mode backup did run normally.
Any ideas what might have caused this or things to look for? I've sent
logs to TSM support and if no one comes up with things to check, we'll
restart the server before tonights backups and hope that clears things.
