Two ways to handle this. The Archive should work.
The second way is to create another node to house only your selective backups. This requires another stanza in your dsm.sys and dsm.opt. Then use the -se and -optfile options as applicable to make that same client look like another client from a TSM server point of view. Paul D.

Oh most excellent TSM'ers, who have been there and done that! Using 4.x client talking to a 4.x host: If I exclude.dir a subdirectory, can I archive files from beneath that directory and have them last? The "Using the B/A client" manual says that you can perform selective backups from underneath an excluded directory, but the files expire with the next incremental. Will archives work anyway, or do I need to set up another "node" on the same box with a complementary inclexcl list? Thanks, Kai.
