I am getting a lot of

after upgrading to Trend 3.0.  If I run a 
load smdupd -debug 3
I get a debug file that tells me that the file downloaded is corrupt. 
Response is basically "situations" happen.  Suggested cleanup steps are:
1. Delete the /qibm/userdata/trend/smd/program/$Version/au_cache folder 
2. Delete the /qibm/userdata/trend/smd/program/$Version/au_log folder. 
3. Delete the /qibm/userdata/trend/smd/program/$Version/au_temp folder 
4. Delete the /qibm/userdata/trend/smd/pattern/vsapi/lptvpn.xxx 
5. Delete the new pattern file in the smency.nsf database 
6. Change the pattern number in the smency.nsf to a lower pattern number 
(i.e. 0.100.0) 
7. Do a pattern update (load smdupd) 

This usually works.

Trying to figure out why I am getting this.  I am concerned that, with 
multiple Domino partitions on one lpar if multiple dpars are trying smdupd 
at the same time.
