Agreed.

And have you done dbpause etc? While *RECENT* versions of UV shouldn't
be a problem, you'd be ill-advised to run cpio (or any non-MV backup
tool) over an older version if it's in active use. That's a guarantee of
corrupted files when you restore ...

For belt and braces (plus being a native tool it's a lot safer), look at
using uvbackup or the UD equivalent. The resulting output is text so it
should compress well.

Cheers,
