I'm trying to use dump -L option to dump with snapshot on
-current/RELENG_5_0 family.
I found dump -L needs writable permission to the device (that's
reasonable because it *writes* snapshot file). But when I try to dump
by operator group, it's impossible to dump with -L option (target
device has root:operator and crw-r-----).
This behavior is understandable. But in actual backup operations,
what should we do? I'd like to hear what you thought in design.
(1) Do dump as root with -L option.
(2) Do chmod g+w for device.
(3) Other ideas?
