What is Linux dump Command?



Explanation

dump COMMAND:
     dump command makes backup of filesystem or file and directories.

SYNTAX:
  The Syntax is
     dump [options] [dump-file] [File-system or file or directories].

OPTIONS:
     
-[level] The dump level any integer
-f Make the backup in a specified file
-u Updates /etc/dumpdats file for the backup made

-e Exclude inode while making backup



EXAMPLE:
     
  1. To make a backup for a directory or file :

    This command creates a dump-file called databackup which is the backup of /home/user1/data directory.
    In above command:

  2. To make a backup for a directory or file which is already backedup with dump level 0:

    This command backups all the new files added to /home/user1/data directory after level-0 dump is made.
