I think that if the log is growing, it's from other sessions that are
still running.  You should be able to cancel those without delay.
Before I halt a server, I always try to cancel all the active sessions and
give it 10-15 minutes to free up, while monitoring the log.
Seems to work for me.

Shawn

It may well be that the log isn't 'supposed" to grow but that isn't what
I experienced. I ended up halting TSM and restarting as I did not want
to take a chance that it would fill completely even though I do have
headroom to extend the log further.

The administrator of the server tells me he stopped all TSM services
that were running but that didn't seem to cancel the sessions either,
and I thought it would. If it was supposed to then I'd have to question
the system he was on.
