BUT, something is not right. The activelog files seems to be in the wrong

Hi,
This is probably a Del question, but how can I do a Point-In-Time restore to a
PST file?
When I browse in the new TSM for Exchange 6.4 client, I can either only restore
the latest version to a PST or do a Point-In-Time restore to a SMTP Server or
the Original destination.
Maybe I'm blind
In my experience much of the time to restore when using tape is traversing the
actual tape to get to the file(s) that TSM is to restore.
You may want to think of colocation for your primary storage pool and copy pool.
Restore time seems to be one of the trade offs vs. shorter backup time, fewer

There is no option... That's the whole point - it's unqualified:
of this, is to run full
backups on a periodic basis so that when I have to perform a Point in
time restore it does it quickly and does not have to traverse a huge
transaction log and restore files that were later deleted.

From what I read the standard incremental backup is restricted in that it only
backs up new or changed files since the last
incremental backup.
However I have been told that we need to run absolute incremental backups on
a periodic basis

Hello all,
I can't answer this question because I have never had to use a point in time

Henrik,
You are correct .
Point in time restore will enable recovery to the same state as if you had
taken a full backup on that particular day.
This is the way TSM was designed to work.
Using absolute mode would have significant impact both on your media use
and the size of your database.
