You may want to put your INCLUDE/EXCLUDE lists, 6 of them, in CLIENTOPTION
sets.  Then write a server script that will associate and dis-associate the
desired node before/after the scheduled backups.  I realize that you are now
synchronizing the server schedules and client schedules but it should work.
I do a synchronized duel schedule to control when my FULL
(copymode=absolute) and INCREMENTAL (copymode=modified) are run.

Subject:        Multiple Sessions for Netware backups

Don't laugh....
I am trying to set up a backup schedule for a Netware server.  I will be
backing up approx 500 Gig once a week.
Why 500 gig? Our lotus notes storage is out of control.  As a fix (yea
right) the notes admins are going to make
everyone do local archives of their mail to their share drive.  Yes.. there
moving the problem from one platform to
another. Brilliant minds.  Regardless.. I have to back this server up once
a week.. I want to create multiple backup
scheduled sessions each with separate option files.  For example: optfile 1
: incl [a-p].nsf  excl *.nsf  and optfile2 :
incl [q-z].nsf excl *.nsf..   This way I can hopefully make my backup
window.. I will probably set up 6 schedules.  So
my question is how can I use the TSM Server scheduler to start multiple
scheduled operations each looking at different
option files ( or different inclexcludes).  I may even spread the backup
across 2 TSM servers.
Any feedback would be much appreciated..
