Hi Chris Thanks for responding. The documentation implies that the Cross Mount Points is a UNIX specific parameter and also says not to use it with the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES directive. I guess you may end up with two copies of all local drives if you do that! If it is UNIX specific though I wonder wh

FORCE_MEDIA_SERVER entry in bp.conf would be sufficient for the same drives on another media server in the same SSO config. By "newer and cleaner" drives it sounds as if you're using a different storage unit so I'm not sure what that would require. The entry in bp.conf would be: FORCE_RESTORE_ME

Greg TSM is *very* different to NBU. One big difference is that it works on a forever-incremental methodology. Although I believe these days it is able to work in a Full/Incremental fashion as NBU does, just as NBU is now able to do synthetic backups, which is similar to TSM. There's also a fairl
