finc(1M)                                                 finc(1M)



     NAME
          finc - fast incremental backup for System V file systems

     SYNOPSIS
          finc [-a n] [-c n] [-m n] [-n file] disk-device-file
          device-file

     DESCRIPTION
          For System V file systems only, finc selectively copies the
          input disk-device-file to the output device-file.  Mount the
          input device-file read-only to ensure an accurate backup,
          although you can obtain acceptable results in read-write
          mode.  The tape must be previously labeled by labelit (see
          volcopy(1M)).

          We recommend using the ff command to produce an index of the
          tape's contents before using finc.  You can recover files on
          a finc tape with the frec command.

          The argument n in the following options is a decimal integer
          (optionally signed), where +n means more than n, -n means
          less than n, and n means exactly n.  A day is defined as 24
          hours.

          -a n      true if the file has been accessed in n days.

          -c n      True if the inode has been changed in n days.

          -m n      true if the file has been modified in n days.

          -n file   true for any file which has been modified more re-
                    cently than the argument file.

     EXAMPLE
             finc -m -2 /dev/rdsk/c5d0s0 /dev/rmt/tc1

          writes a tape of all files from the specified file-system
          that have been modified in the last 2 days.

     FILES
          /bin/finc
