Example 1 � Performing a Full Backup of root (/) The following example shows how to do a full backup of the root (/) file system. The system in this example is brought to single-user mode before the backup. The following ufsdump options are included: 0 specifies a 0 level dump (or a full backup). u specifies that the /etc/dumpdates file is updated with the date of this backup. c identifies a cartridge tape device. f /dev/rmt/0 identifies the tape device. / is the file system being backed up. For example: # init 0 ok boot -s # ufsdump 0ucf /dev/rmt/0 / DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Tue Oct 07 16:23:08 2003 DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch DUMP: Dumping /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 (starbug:/) to /dev/rmt/0. DUMP: Mapping (Pass I) [regular files] DUMP: Mapping (Pass II) [directories] DUMP: Writing 63 Kilobyte records DUMP: Estimated 296644 blocks (144.85MB).
