Have a look at "Performing an incremental, selective, or incremental-by-date 
backup"
in manual "IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows - Backup-Archive Clients 
Installation and User's Guide"
or have a look at Richard Sims marvelous TSM website - topic "backup" etc.

Hi Win200x Server Backup Techs,

I'd be interested in info on this too. I just went through this, forced
to move NT disks around. Our one big shared network disk on Win2003
Server filled up and first we split off to a 2nd disk, then moved to a
much larger single disk chunk again, all on an IBM SAN. I kept the disk
id E: the same on the same server name etc, but just couldn't stop
Tivoli from backing up the whole thing again and again. After doing our
normal 6 week incremental and an image backup in case etc, I created a
FLUSH domain with 2 day retention and smaller version settings etc,
moved the Win2003 server to that domain, and flushed out the older FULL
backups. I then moved it back to the domain it was in.

So what "flag" does the Win200n Tivoli client use to backup a file
again, besides update date or archive flag?

Thanks..
