Hi Richard,
It is a TSM server that have two instances.
Looking at the installation path we found the files dsmserv.lock and
adsmserv.lock but the size is 0, and the content is empty when TSM is running.
The same is happening with the second instance.
But one curious thing is that if we try to launch another TSM from the path's
that other TSM exists previously(and is up), it won't let you because the file
adsmserv.lock and dsmserv.lock exist -> but the content is empty and filesize
is 0.
The FS got enough free space.
In other way, what do you think about killing TSM with kill -9 <pid> script or
a "dsmadmc -se=<inst> -id=admin -pa=admin halt" script -> with this script
someone could find the admin password... :-(((
Any comments will be appreciated !!
Thanks !!

Your posting doesn't say where you looked for the lock file. In
Solaris, it is documented as being in /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/, as
dsmserv.lock.
Note that a zero-length file can be a consequence of a full file
system at the time of attempted file creation, so check that. Also
check the mtime timestamp on your lock files relative to the time
that your server started, to corroborate.
