how to correct slow TSM logins after going to TSM 5.2
Description
After going to TSM 5.2 or higher, you can experience some delay with the web admin session or dsmadmc. In particular, after logging in with your admin username, there is a 30-60 second delay waiting for the password prompt.
The cause could be a name resolution problem (DNS). At TSM 5.2.x, additional system calls are made in TSM server to get information from DNS.
To correct the problem:
1) Add all applicable server entries to your DNS
OR
2) Modify the dsmserv.opt file to add the following line:
DSNLOOKUP NO
Note: You must restart the TSM server to make the change take effect.
