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 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:

|
|
and the counter-argument on:

|
|
Slackware's tar package already has rmt, therefore this SlackBuild
|
|
excludes it.
|
|
|
|
CONFLICT: The restore application conflicts with the tar package.
|
|
|
|
On installing this dump package "/usr/sbin/restore" will be overwritten.
|
|
|
|
Should you remove the dump package, you may note that this file will not be
|
|
deleted because it is "shared" with the tar package. You may opt to reinstall
|
|
the stock tar package after uninstalling the dump package.
|
|
Hint: # slackpkg reinstall tar
|

|
|
This SlackBuild disables the SELinux functionality and dependency.
