Thanks for the info. The tsm server has nothing in the actlog during the time frames of the errors for this node. It DOES have sessions being started for other nodes. That's why I'm thinking it's a DNS/network problem.
Per suggestions . . .I'm putting together a little script to do tests every 60s for ping, nslookup, traceroute.

It is using tsm4.fenetwork.com. From inside tsm you can't see what ip# it resolves to, but here are a few other methods: Ping tsm4.fenetwork.com Nslookup tsm4.fenetwork.com. Or start a dsmc session (try to start at least) and use netstat -an | grep 1800 If you don't trust your name service you can use "tcpserveraddress ip#" instead. BUT: "Session rejected" looks like the client talks to the operating system on the machine that runs the TSM server, but the server isn't answering on the port (1800). The server may be down, or you have reached the maximum number of sessions. (hint: q status).
