Del, thanks for answering. For the last question, the database runs on
Oracle. I've checked the page you mentioned and with the interface with
RMAN, TSM is able to perform the backup of transation logs. Is it the same
for "file groups"? By the way, what does "file groups" means?
For the first question, do you think that the "copy storage pool" option
can do the job?
Regards,
Mauricio

I can answer a few questions...
TDP for Exchange does not do individual mailbox or brick level
backup and restore.
TDP for Notes (supported only on R4) backed up at the item level.
But, since it only works with R4, it will being going away soon.
TDP for Domino (supported on R5) backs up at the database level
and since each user has their own database in Domino, then
the answer would be yes, you can restore each user's mailbox individually.
TDP for Domino supports archival transaction logging in
Domino R5 and will back up the transaction logs.
Your last question does not specify what database system you
are referring to. If you are referring to Microsoft SQL Server,
then the answer is yes. With TDP for SQL version 2.2, you can
back up transaction logs and filegroups.
For more info, I highly recommend:

Thanks,
Del
