What exactly do you mean 'partial' backup?  Do you mean the standard TSM
incremental backup?  If so that would be in the copygroup mode
parameter.  But of course from the GUI or the CLI, your users can still
request a full backup without changing this parameter on the server.

Subject: Incremental Backup (full/partial)

Hi fellow listers,

So here I am, "Reading the Fine Manual", and it sez; an Incremental
Backup can either be "full" or "partial"..
How can I tell if my backup(s) are requesting a "full" or "partial"
backup?
