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

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

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?

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?
