APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The following error message is erroneously reported in the
dsmffdc.log during  client backup sessions:

[ FFDC_GENERAL_SERVER_ERROR ]: (admactlg.c:5684) Client Type for
node=<node name> is not system nor VM. Skipping.

Customer/L2 Diagnostics:
This should be an informational logging message rather than an
error level logging message.  By default informational messages
will not be included in the FFDC.

Basically, that message tells that there will be no security
alert for this client in the Operations Center if the amount of
data backed up is not in line with the average backups for this
client.
At this time, clients that use the API (including Data
Protection clients) are not included in this detection.


IBM Spectrum Protect Server version Affected: All IBM Spectrum
Protect Server v8.1.6 on all platforms

Initial Impact: Low

Additional Keywords: FFDC_GENERAL_SERVER_ERROR  admactlg.c
Client Type dsmffdc.log 8.1.6 tsm TS001565943

Local fix

  • None. The message is just an information and it can be ignored.
