Re: [ADSM-L] Tivoli Flash Copy Manager for Custom application backup mod

Hi Wira,

FCM exploits the B/A client backup group functionality to treat 
all the files from each backup as a logical entity.
Backup group supports Full and Diff modes.

If you want to do file level backups, you can use the
FCMCLI mount function and drive the dsmc incr command.

Thanks,

Del
