ehh well true.

But since this place gets tons of hits and in case someone else is looking for this answer I did finally get one from IBM. It's funny I sometimes have to call them multiple times to get a good answer. The guy I spoke to yesterday was clueless today I couldn't get off the phone the guy was very excited to talk about rsct and hacmp for over 40min. But I got some good info! :D *bats lashes*

TS_NIM_ERROR_STUCK_ER
Explanation: One of the threads in a NIM process was blocked.
Details: This entry indicates that a thread in one of the NIM processes did not make progress and was possibly blocked for a period of time. Depending on which of the threads was blocked and for how long, the adapter corresponding to the NIM process may be erroneously considered down.

The standard fields indicate that the NIM was blocked and present possible causes and actions to prevent the problem from reoccurring. The problem may have been caused by resource starvation at the node, or possibly excessive I/O activity. The detailed fields show the name of the thread which was blocked, the interval in seconds during which the thread was blocked, and the interface name which is associated with this instance of the NIM.

If there is no false adapter down event caused by the blockage then no action is needed. If there is then the cause for the blockage needs to be understood. To investigate the problem, follow the same steps as those taken to investigate the error entry TS_LATEHB_PE.
