Bernard, I can't think of a direct way to prevent a node from performing an incr backup.
Here is a work around. >From the TSM server lock that node. This will prevent the node from accessing the server. Set up an two admin schedule. First schedule to unlock the node, so that schedule backup can be done. Once the schedule backup finsh, have another admin schedule to issue lock node. Hope this helps or give you some ideas.
