Error description
Due to processing an invalid internal list, the Tivoli Storage Manager 6.1 server may get into a non-terminating loop causing the Tivoli Storage Manager server to hang. At the time of the hang, no sessions/processes are able to run nor can be started. The situation is pretty much as a standstill until the Tivoli Storage Manager 6.1 server will be terminated and restarted. . Due to the nature of a hang, no SHOW commands can be issued against the Tivoli Storage Manager server anymore to identify the problem. The only possible way to do so, is by forcing a dump of the Tivoli Storage Manager server which then has to be analyzed by Tivoli Storage Manager server development. . . Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: Tivoli Storage Manager servers 6.1 on all platforms . . Initial Impact: High . . Additional Keywords: zz61 hang stall unresponsive
