This method is equivalent to the SELective and is off topic;  he wanted to
use command line.  Also, Paul's point is a good one -- selective does not
update the last-incremental date on the filespace... so, we're back to
ABSOLUTE in the management class.

We use a fourth, the manual way with the GUI and using the "Always Backup"
button.  Our 3rd shift operators key it off usually after a automatic
incremental and before some special project on that particular client.  The
client requests a "full" and we will do a manual "Always Backup."

There are THREE "sure" ways to trigger a (traditional) FULL backup:

1 - run "dsmc i" (incremental command) but use a management class which
maps
to a copygroup which specifies "absolute" (rather than modified) for
"mode",
AND frequency=0 (to allow on demand);  this is the "easiest" way to force
FULL (for data mapped to the appropriate management class, via INCLUDE
specs.);

2 - use the archive command (but you must specify each file system);

3 - selective will also work, but you must specify each file system.

That should do it.

Hello,

Is there an easy way to do a full command line backup.   I have an NT
client
version 4.2.15 and I would like to do full backups instead of incremental.

Thanks

Chad
