I do not understand the hard to manage argument, I use scripts to do all of that sort of work. It is nice to be able to fine tune the disk pool sizes. We have started resizing the pool volumes to reduce the threads TSM uses, but it will take more than a week to complete. It will take 2 days to do enough resizing to determine if this is the problem which is why I asked the question.
It appears that our TSM servers can only handle about 2060 threads. Does that sound right for an AIX server?

I would say 'Hell yes!', but not from a technical-constraint perspective; I'd emphasize the management overhead involved in keeping track of such things. Strong suggestion: during the times you _can_ get the server to keep running, one-by-one upd vol [foo] acc=reado move data [foo] del vol [foo] Then remake the involved storage in a larger size. Hopefully this will get you under your pain threshold quickly, and then you can gradually reform the rest. - Allen S.
