Example--Full Backup to Remote System (SunOS 4.1.3 Data to Solaris 7)

The following example shows a full backup of a local root (/) file system on a Sun 4.1.3 system (mars) to a remote tape device on a Solaris 7 system called pluto.


Note -

Notice that when you back up data on a system running SunOS 4.1.3 or a compatible version, you must use the dump command--not the ufsdump command.
