Hi, Do a Backup of universe on snapshot ; to perform a binary backup.
Yes, if you don't use Type30 / dynamic files because while a T30 file is open, some header file's information stays in memory. You must close the T30 files (all users) to be sure the header is flushed. I prefer using uvbackup. To avoid the 2gb limit, I prepare files-list to uvbackup and run multiple uvbackup -cmdfil . For uvfiles which are greather than 2gb himself, I use Distribution (DEFINE.DF) then I manage only files smaller than 2gb (a easy solution to make resizing administration regarding administation of 64bit nGb files).
