NAME
wsdumptable - static information about dumping filesystems
DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/wsdumptable contains descriptive information
about various workstations and filesystems that will be
dumped by wsdump(8n). The file is split up into two
sections. The first section contains information on how
often to dump at each level.
level (dump level number, range 0-9; see dump(8)).
frequency (how often to dump at this level - in days)
groups (how many groups to dump at this level each night)
The second section contains information on each filesystem
to be dumped.
workstation (workstation that the filesystem resides on)
filesystem (name of the filesystem)
levels (the levels to dump this filesystem at)
group (the group that this filesystem belongs to)
This is an ASCII file. Each field within each entry is
separated from the next by a colon. Each entry is separated
from the next by a new-line. Lines starting with the '#'
character are treated as comments. Lines starting with the
'-' character are treated as section delimiters.
/etc/wsdumptable is only read by programs, and not written;
it is the duty of the system administrator to properly
create and maintain this file. This file can be maintained
using the program viwsb(8). The order of records in
/etc/wsdumptable will reflect the order in which filesystems
will be dumped.

In this example level 0 dumps are done every 30 days, level
1 dumps are done every 7 days and level 9 dumps are done
every day. Level 0 dumps are done to at most 1 group each
day, level 1 dumps are done to at most 2 groups each day and
level 9 dumps are done to at most 9 groups each day. The
file system /dev/dw00a on kokomo participates in dumps on

system /dev/dw00a on duke participates in dumps on levels 0,
1 and 9 and is a member of group 'B'. The file system
/dev/dw00a on pejs participates in dumps on levels 0, 1 and
