Progressive, incremental backups are intrinsic to the product. In that you're asking fundamental questions, I would guess that you haven't been through a lot of the introductory material about the product. Review the TSM Concepts redbook and the Admin Guide manual, both of which provide a solid overview of how the product works. You might also view the Flash-based demo of how the product works at: http://www.ibm.com/software/tivoli/library/demos/storage-mgr.html Richard Sims, http://people.bu.edu/rbs
