An old trick I used for many years:
to investigate a "problem" filesystem, do a "find" in that filesystem.
If the find dies, tsm definitly will die.
I'll bet your find will die, and that's why your backup will die/hang or
whatever also. A find will do a filestat on all files/dirs, actually the same
the backup does.
So your issue is OS related and not tsm.
