TSM Storage Agent 5.4.3.2 on HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC

TSM Storage Agent 5.4.3.2 on HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC.
This is a legacy platform, so there are no updates.
When connecting to TSM 6.3, any restores need to be done without no-query.
If you do a no-query restore, the storage agent crashes with this:

ANR7821S Thread 12 (SessionThread, tid 26) terminating on signal 11 (Segmentation violation).

You’ll have to CANCEL RESTORE, then rm adsmserv.lock in the StorageAgent directory, then restart dsmsta.

No-query restore is via dsmj -> restore -> options -> disable no query restore
OR, from command line, make sure you have a question mark somewhere in your file path (an asterisk won’t do it).

Then, consider upgrading your legacy applications to a supported platform.
