yes you are right !! and not only that .. but also Lotus .. just about to post one question on the policy .. i am confusd in policy for retention.
Right now .. i want to just take backups of the backups taken by their application. LAter on i will automate using TSM. Can anyone kindly give me the knowledge as to what folders should i exclude from backup if: 1- I have bd2 database backup with me. 2- System state backup with me. 3- I want to restore complete system with DB2, with DB2 database backup ONLY availbale with me in a file. 4- What folders/files should i exclude from backup using BA Client, so that i don't mess up with open databases.
