Hi all,
I am still new to this big backup world of TSM and am a bit confused on how I should properly implement my backup requirements.
- daily backup (able to rollback 14 days)
- monthly backup (able to rollback 2 months)
- quarterly backup (able to rollback 2 quarters)
So I start to create a domain "daily" with a policy, mgmt class, copy group.
Then I create a schedule based upon that domain to run daily, at night
Register a node with the domain and schedule, and I start testing...
- Ok, it works, but not completely. TSM will not hold backups for a number of days, but a number of versions, right? Can live with this.
- How do I automate the other 2 backup requirements of the same node ? (monthly and quarterly).
Help me to see the light please.
Best Regards
Tom

-Do I use different options files on the same client?
-Am I able to use multiple copygroups,
-do I need different schedulers,
-can I copy backups already taken by the daily backup and use them -once a month/quarter in stead of all of the above
or am I now asking questions that are not valid with TSM logics? -Am I able to use multiple copygroups,
-do I need different schedulers,
-can I copy backups already taken by the daily backup and use them -once a month/quarter in stead of all of the above
