I have used dump (ufsdump for Solaris) for years. The basic syntax to do a full backup is: dump 0f <dump device> <filesystem> Dump Device can be a tape device, filename, etc. The file system is whatever file system you want to dump. You can either specify by the device (/dev/hda1) or by the name ( / ). You can write a script to dump all file systems on your system, something like this: ---cut--- !#/bin/sh FS="/dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3" for f in $FS; do dump 0f /dev/nrst0 $f done ----cut--- In this case I used /dev/nrst0 as the dump device, the n specifies no rewind and rst0 is a tape device.

Greetings,
Does anybody run batch files with a "dump" of the system? f yes what exactly do you use.
