FMV1809W
A session with the Tivoli Storage Manager server has been disconnected. An attempt will be made to reestablish the connection.

Explanation

This message is issued after the session with the Tivoli Storage Manager server is unexpectedly lost. Some possible reasons that this message might be issued:
- There is a problem with the network.
- The Tivoli Storage Manager server was shut down.
- The Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator cancelled the client session.

System action

The client will try to reestablish a connection with the server. If the Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator cancelled the session, then the attempt to reestablish the connection will fail and message FMV1369E will be issued. If the attempt to reestablish the connection is successful, then processing will continue. If the attempt to reestablish the connection fails, then the client will continue to try to reestablish a connection according to the COMMRESTARTDURATION and COMMRESTARTINTERVAL client option settings.

User response

If the session was cancelled by the Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator and you do not know why, or if the client is unable to reestablish a session with the Tivoli Storage Manager server, then contact your Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator for further information. Frequent occurrences of the FMV1809W message can indicate a problem with the network. If this message is repeatedly found in the dsmerror.log, investigate possible networking trouble, such as a failing network interface card or router problem. One common problem is the media speed of the network adaptors: If the network adaptors are set to "auto-negotiate", try changing them to "100%% full duplex". If the problem persists, then as a temporary measure ask your Tivoli Storage Manager server administrator increase the COMMTIMEOUT and IDLETIMEOUT option settings on the Tivoli Storage Manager server. This might reduce the frequency of this message.
