Well, it backs up databases..................... So it will backup the pointers and not the flat files the contents of the DB points to.
But those flat files will be backed up by the normal incremental, and if they remain static, should not be a lot of overhead. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/21/2005 3:22:42 PM >>> We are trying to estimate the resource requirements for TSM backups of a new clinical system. The system will have a MicroSoft SQL database. Most of the space used by the database will be occupied by scanned images of paper charts and digital images from diagnostic equipment. According to the application manager each image will reside in a flat file with some sort of pointer to the flat file inside the database files. How will TDP handle the images? Will it just back up the pointers in the database files, or will it read and backup all the flat files?
