Keith's response that just came in is the only feedback I've received. I ended up having my first data mover backup up all the rest (with a different schedule) and my second data mover back up the first. My data movers are all VMs.
My options for the first schedule is: Options: -vmfulltype=vstor -vmbackuptype=fullvm -asnode=mitc -domain.vmfull="VMHOSTCLUSTER=MI- TC;VM=tsmpbw*;-VM=tsmpbw01" -MODE=IFIncremental The options for the second schedule is: Options: -vmfulltype=vstor -vmbackuptype=fullvm -asnode=mitc -domain.vmfull="VMHOSTCLUSTER=MI- TC;VM=tsmpbw01" -MODE=IFIncremental -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Prather, Wanda Sent: Monday, May 20, 2013 12:18 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Backups of TSMVE Datamovers Hi David, Just wondering if you ever got any feedback on this. I'm backing up my data mover with the standard backup client, because that's what the book said. Wondering if anybody else had done it from a different datamover...
