I agree with Andy don't change include/exludes between backups of the same
system!

Use TSM 'archive' function to get the data once per week to the TSM server
instead of TSM 'backup'

exclude's are ignored by the TSM archive function (unless you are using
exclude.archive)

You definitely should not use multiple include/exclude lists. Here is a
post I made a while back on a similar topic:

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

I've got a set of files, a database, that I want to do a cold backup on 1
time a week.  I also want the nightly backups to keep excluding those DBF
files.  Can I do this within one include exclude file?  Do I need a
second include exclude file, and how go about doing that?
