ok .. thank you very much Cook. But if I have to use a scratch volume, why
appear with the name dbbk.1
I've been meaning to configured the backup trigger with 0 incremental
backup so always start a full backup.

I should probably further qualify that...
With that it will trigger an incremental db backup to clear the log and
every so many incrementals it will do a full...
TSM won't let you shoot yourself in the foot...
that is, an old db backup (set, full & following incrementals) until you
have at least another "FULL" backup that is good.
So you can't use a single tape, because any backup operation (full or inc)
will always write FILE#1 to the tape and it won't let you overwrite a db
backup file and you can't clear it until you creat a new one
yadayadayada...
Now this is all with logmode rollforward...
If you use logmode normal you can't define a db backup trigger.

hope this helps a little...
