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
See Also
backup(C), restore(C), default(M)
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.
