Hi Rick,

thanks for your answer but in our case we have 5 tapes that shall be
recycled every week...

Jean-Baptiste,

I have some rather good news for you: you only do a full backup once. After
that, only incrementals. That's the difference with TSM... :)

Regards,

Rick

Hello,

big question by a newbie:

we want to put in place backups with the following scheme: One full backup
of client nodes done Friday and the backup during the other days shall be
incremental. The backups shall be kept for about 7 days.
How have I to define the policy in ADSM. Can someone give me examples
because I'm really new to this product.
Another question: Does ADSM take care about holidays?

Thanks a lot for your help,
Jean-Baptiste
