Hi y'all,

Under the description of the Define Copygorup Frequency parameter, the book
says "ADSM does not perform an incremental backup unless the specified
number of days has elapsed since the last backup."

Does this only apply to scheduled incremental backups, or does it also
apply to manually run incremental backups?

If I set FREQ=1, does it simply use 24 hrs as the required elapsed time,
or does it use some other algorithm?  (If my scheduled backups run randomly
between 7PM and 7AM, and they happen to run at 1 AM and again at 11 PM the
same day, will the 11 PM backup do nothing?)

Thanks for any clarification.
