Hi,

The answer is yes.

But also consider Marks answer, Archive or Backupsets.

Hendrik,

thanks for the answer.

One final question:

If I use 2 different node names will the incremental backup "Use" the
full backup or not? In other words:

Will TSM store a file that is already backed up in the full backup a
second time when the incremental backup runs?
