Del, Thanks for your help. I created a new node and created a new schedule that does a full selective backup. But then, I realized that I am still using the same management class with the normal retention period of my incrementals. Does this mean my selective backups are of no use since they just get expired. Do I need to create another Management Class, if yes, would I also need to create a backup copy group? Or can I just create/copy another dsm.opt file which refers to the new management class and then refer to the new dsm.opt file in the dominc.cmd script.

Rodolfo, TDP for Domino does not support "archive." Do you mean monthly backups outside of the normal backup schedule? There are probably a number of different ways to do this. Some of the customers I have talked to set up a second NODENAME (like DOMSERV99.MONTHLY) and run a full selective backup using that NODENAME.
