Hi,

I've been having some issues with dump on a 3.2 machine - it seems to 
get itself stuck accessing /usr/home ........ 

  DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files]
  DUMP: 56.32% done, finished in 0:03
  DUMP: 168.82% done, finished in 0:-4
  DUMP: 281.51% done, finished in 0:-9
  DUMP: 394.54% done, finished in 0:-14
  DUMP: 507.46% done, finished in 0:-20
  DUMP: 621.00% done, finished in 0:-25

if I look (with fstat) at what inodes dump has open, I continuously 
get five dump processes listed as follows:

root     dump       57079   wd /usr     358760 drwxr-xr-x    7680  r
root     dump       57078   wd /usr     358760 drwxr-xr-x    7680  r
root     dump       57077   wd /usr     358760 drwxr-xr-x    7680  r
root     dump       57076   wd /usr     358760 drwxr-xr-x    7680  r
root     dump       57074   wd /usr     358760 drwxr-xr-x    7680  

358760 corresponds to /usr/home

and this is the state it seems to stay in indefinitely - any 
suggestions as to what is going on?

thanks in anticipation,
