Alan, Yes, you can do this. I back up incrementally to a 3490 cartridge pool and fulls to a 9840 cartridge pool Works fine.

I've never done that but I wouldn't think it matters. The volhist file keeps track of where these backups are.

Re: DB Backup question re: Incremental vs. Full
We do this on some of our larger TSM servers and it works fine, have been performing full backups to tape and incrementals to one of our VTSs. Works fine and have performed DB restores from these backups also.

DB Backup question re: Incremental vs. Full
Hello List, I have a question on Incremental DB backups. If I take a full backup to storage pool "A" one day can I take an Incremental backup to storage pool "B" the next day or must the incremental backup go to the same storage pool as the full backup?
