I appreciate all of the ideas that were posted on the list, and will send
an update out to the group when we make our final decision on how to handle
this.
For those on this who think PIT restores are the answer.... While I
certainly see the value in PIT restores and in fact use them myself, I
disagree with the anecdotal statement that PIT restores can completely
eliminate the need for point in time backups. However, if I'm missing
something here I'd be happy to listen to anyone who can give me a DETAILED
layout of how to EASILY set up MANAGEABLE policies so that I can ensure my
customer that I can get his directory back for him as it looked 1, 3, 12 or
15 months ago.
Tivoli - this is definitely an ISSUE with your customers. Is this ever
going to be addressed?

If you manage your RETVER and VEREXISTS and RETONLY parameters
properly, this can be accomplished with point in time *restores*,
rather than point in time backups.
