With the incremental... on the restore, rather than a single step restore
        dsmserv restore db dev=tapedevc vol=blah commit=yes        (as it
would be with all full's)
you would have to do
        dsmserv restore db dev=tapedevc vol=fullblah commit=no
        dsmserv restore db dev=tapedevc vol=incblah commit=no
        dsmserv restore db dev=tapedevc vol=incblah commit=no
        dsmserv restore db dev=tapedevc vol=lastincblah commit=yes
but this won't take a whole lot of extra time...
mainly saves you time on the front end when making the backups.
