we are using it with a Wangtek cartridge, and have stress-tested it 
pretty vigorously over the last few days.  It works really well, 
with a single caveat: the date of the backup just does no get properly
recorded, rendering partials (differentials or incrementals) a null
issue.  However, for FULL backups, this puppy works really great!

we use the following command:

	dump -0auf /dev/wt0

Please feel free to write off-list if there is anything we can help with!

Subject: 	how about dump??

does anyone use dump and restore for backups??
any rules of thumb for using it.
I guess I would always want to do full backups of all filesystems.
(this is just a web and mail server)
what are the recommended options etc??
I seem to be having a hard time finding examples in any man pages or
faqs.
thanks in advance
Robert
