Thanks Warren, >> Is there any reason why dump would not do incremental when used with -f -? > -u to update /etc/dumpdates after a success? That was it. But I now wonder what was the twisted reason behind that behaviour (that is not documented, man pages mention the various levels, not saying they are not working unless -u); I understand one may want to not implement the incremental dumps, but the default should enable them. Best regards, olivier
