     DUMPDIR(C)               XENIX System V                DUMPDIR(C)



     Name
          dumpdir - Prints the names of files on a backup archive.

     Syntax
          dumpdir [ f filename ]

     Description
          dumpdir is used to list the names and inode numbers of all
          files and directories on an archive written with the backup
          command.  This is most useful when attempting to determine
          the location of a particular file in a set of backup
          archives.

          The f option causes filename to be used as the name of the
          backup device instead of the default.  The backup device
          depends on the setting of the variable TAPE in the file
          /etc/default/dumpdir.  The device specified as TAPE can be
          any type of backup device supported by the system (for
          example, a floppy drive or cartridge tape drive).

     Files
          rst* Temporary files

     Diagnostics
          If the backup extends over more than one volume (where a
          volume is likely a floppy disk or tape), you will be asked
          to change volumes.  Press RETURN after changing volumes.
