What if evey month you were to rename the filespaces of a node to a name containing
the month? e.g /data becomes /Feb02_data on 1 Feb.
Then, the next incremental would be a full on the /data filespace. Delete the renamed
filespace whenever the appropriate retention period ha

In my experience
How about month-end exports? You can keep them for as long as you need,
but there is the extra step of re-importing them to be able to restore from
them.

full-incremental-incremental scheme with TSM, explain how TSM works,

Dave,
I am puzzled, but willing to learn--Why do you say that backupsets
and archiving are not viable ways of doing PIT backups? Backupsets
are more oriented to a PIT restor
snapshot to me.

disagree with the anecdotal statement that PIT restores can completely
eliminate the need for point in time backups. However, if I'm missing

What do you want to accomplish???
There is no such thing in TSM as Point In Time Backups.
There is only Point in Time RESTORES.
What are you really asking for? (I know Monthly, Weekly, etc)

Dave,
I am curious about alternatives you keep in mind
when writing about this beeing "an increasing inhibitor".
It would be of some use for me as well
if I could combine quarterly backups with incremental forever paradigm,
but I am not aware

I have numerous customers who are requesting that, in addition to their TSM
daily incremental backups, I also provide them with "point in time"
backups of their data on significant days like month end, quarter end,

Daily Incremental and a Monthly Archive.
Some thoughts.

You might be looking for different retention periods for these
point-in-time backups from the rest of your data. You can do this handily
with archives, or you can use multiple nodenames per system to manage
different incremental series. This has been discussed at length before,
check the
If you manage your RETVER and VEREXISTS and RETONLY parameters
properly, this can be accomplished with point in time *restores*,
rather than point in time backups.
