Hello Richard, I do not think problem is so simple.

I have an idea about a source of problem. I have MS SQL database on the same server. There is dedicated node name and scheduler for SQL database. So I am running two schedulers and only one CAD service. Everything was working fine with TSM Client 6.1.3.2, but I have upgraded this server to 6.2.0.0 recently and started to have this problem. I have found something strange on server. Command "netstat -a" gives: TCP sms-prodsrv:ms-sql-s sms-prodsrv.KUWAIT.AUB.NET:0 LISTENING TCP sms-prodsrv:1501 sms-prodsrv.KUWAIT.AUB.NET:0 LISTENING TCP sms-prodsrv:1501 sms-prodsrv.KUWAIT.AUB.NET:0 LISTENING TCP sms-prodsrv:1581 sms-prodsrv.KUWAIT.AUB.NET:0 LISTENING As you see there are two (???????!!!!!!!!) LISTENNING for port 1501. My minimal knowledge in TCP/IP says it is impossible. What do you think about it? Regards, Grigori G.

Check the dsmerror.log on the client for possible error indications. Assure that the TSM server parameters for the client have it going at client port 1501 for the session, and not some odd port. >From the TSM server system, at an OS prompt, do 'telnet <ClientNetname> 1501': When you do Ctrl+], then press Enter to get the "telnet>" prompt, and then quit, the client dsmerror log should contain like: 04/13/10 07:13:24 sessInit: Starting communications initialization 04/13/10 07:13:24 sessInit: Transitioning: sInit state ===> sTRANSERR state This verifies physical connectability from server to client, as in no firewalling preventing access. Use the TSM server command 'DEFine CLIENTAction' to perform a test command which will leave evidence on the client, such as a command to report time of day, directed to a file. (DEFine CLIENTAction may take a while to kick off, so give it some time.)
