Can anyone tell me whether a incremental backup of a virtualmountpoint
sets the last backup date/time stamp?

David - Yes, same as for a real file system.

Domain or Virtualmountpoint?

2002-12-19 Thread Mahesh Tailor
Hope fully something simple . . .

Unix Clients (5.1.5.x): how do you determine when to use domain and
when to use virtualmountpoint?  Is one better than the other? Thanks.

The two are not mutually exclusive.  A domain is a set of meta file collections
(volumes, file systems, etc.) defining your default incremental backup objects.
A virtualmountpoint is a way of subsetting a file system, to have a directory
regarded by TSM as it were a meta collection.  The virtualmountpoint object
would usually be then named in a Domain definition.
