Hi Del,

Yes it help me.

Sorry but I'm not english naturaly speaking so I need "plain" explanation... 
And your's are perfectly clear.
I already know the rebinding of incremental data's when changing the management 
class.
But, with some "naiveté" I thaught that the management binding by TSM was 
different with DP for Exchange.
In fact, what I understand is that, whatever data's are sended by the ba/client 
or a TDP or an other one, at the moment TSM manage data's with a backup 
management class, it is obvious that it will rebind them if the management 
class change.
So if, for example, it is a MQSQL backup, using TDP For MSSQL, the same 
phenomenon happend.

Thanks,

Pierre

Hi Pierre,

Sorry I was not very clear the first time.
Since many people are familiar with the TSM Backup/Archive client, I was trying 
to relate the policy management of an Exchange backup with how the TSM 
Backup/Archive client handles "file-level" 
policy management. With the TSM Backup/Archive, if you back up a file with one 
management class, and then back it up again tomorrow with a different 
management class, the TSM Server will "rebind" yesterday's backup to the new 
management class. The same is true for Data Protection for Exchange FULL type 
backups. 
I hope this helps explain what I was was trying to say.

Thanks,

Del
