Hello Chris,
with 3.1, things do not appear very nice. You have to take weekly archives
or force weekly selective of every files. Both will put a high load on your
network.
With TSM, looks better. You can, without taking any new backup/archive,
create backup sets or even better, instant archives.
Best regards,
