Keep in mind that TSM is intelligent enough that you can use a combination of image backups and (standard) incremental backups; if you call for a drive (or filesystem) restore, TSM will restore the last image backup, and then use the incremental backups to restore files created/modified since the last image backup. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627
