Cris,

Your wish for FULL backup has been (essentially) answered in TSM 3.7... look
at backup sets.  Alternatively, see Kelly Lipp's document contrasting backup
versus archive versus "full" backup.  The need for "full" backup (in the
true sense of the old days of grand-father, father, son rotations of
complete copies of the universe) becomes highly questionable, given these
two references.

INCRemental (forever) minimizes backup window after initial instance for a
given client-node;  backup sets (in v3.7.1) consolidates a copy of a given
node's backup data without the network.

You realize, of course, this has become a religious discussion, right?!?
Hope this help...
