I have 3 partitions to backup. The tapedrive is 12 gigs, and the drive on the server is only 8 gigs. So, I've tried dumping with the command....... dump -0au -f /dev/nrsa0 / dump -0au -f /dev/nrsa0 /usr dump -0au -f /dev/nrsa0 /var Are all the backups going to be made on the same tape? So I could restore with little effort?
