Hi,
This is probably a Del question, but how can I do a Point-In-Time restore to a
PST file?
When I browse in the new TSM for Exchange 6.4 client, I can either only restore
the latest version to a PST or do a Point-In-Time restore to a SMTP Server or
the Original destination.

In my experience much of the time to restore when using tape is traversing the
actual tape to get to the file(s) that TSM is to restore.
You may want to think of colocation for your primary storage pool and copy pool.
Restore time seems to be one of the trade offs vs. shorter backup time, fewer

However I have been told that we need to run &qu
d result I want to achieve from all of this, is to run full
backups on a periodic basis so that when I have to perform a "Point in

Hello Arna
Henrik,
You are correct .
Point in time restore will enable recovery to the same state as if you had
taken a "full backup" on that particular day.
This is the way TSM was designed to work.
Using absolute mode would have significant impact both on your media use
and the size of your data

Hi,
Point in Time Trouble's on AIX.
It seems that TSM expires dir's on the same way as the files;
The policy's says: 3 extra versions.
hen a dir changes regular (by new or
changing files) after 3 backup's the dir disapaers
So, when i want to do a point in time restore, all the dir's with activity older than
3 day's are gone also ALL the files in that dir.
