Have you considered doing tar based backups instead of dumps?

Hi all Thanks very much for the replies, especially Tim who pointed us to the rpms at the amanda website. It turns out the their prebuilt binaries also lack xfs support, but that the source rpms for the stable release do build (sort of) cleanly. We've now installed, configured and tested the rpms, backing up and restoring a 30GB file of /dev/urandom output in double-quick time, excellent! There are a couple of wrinkles involved in the rpm build, I've attached a script which created the ones that we use in case others come across the same problem. Thanks again all. Jim
