I'm not a Novell guy, but we do something here using a Novell function called 'GWCOPY'. Apparently, this makes a snapshot of the PO while it's running. We then backup the copy of the PO. I don't know all of the details, but apparently it can do some sort of incremental copy, but isn't aware of the files in the PO that may have been deleted since the last GWCOPY. This means the copy gets bigger everyday and eventually you have to start from scratch. Meaning, the backup of the copy ends up being a full backup periodically. Check with your Netware people.
