dump (dump and restore backup commands)
|
|
|
|
Dump examines files in a filesystem, determines which ones need to
|
|
be backed up, and copies those files to a specified disk, tape or
|
|
other storage medium. Subsequent incremental backups can then be
|
|
layered on top of the full backup.
|
|
|
|
The restore.dump command performs the inverse function of dump;
|
|
it can restore a full backup of a filesystem. Single files and
|
|
directory subtrees may also be restored from full or partial backups
|
|
in interactive mode.

You might want to read this post by Linus:

Slackware's tar package already has rmt, therefore this SlackBuild
|
|
excludes it. It also has a "restore" command, so dump's restore
|
|
command (and man page) has been renamed "restore.dump".

|
|
This SlackBuild disables the SELinux functionality and dependency.
