We've used dump/restore for our backups since way back in RH7.x.
Unfortunately after our recent upgrade to FC3 I'm getting a ton of
errors from it due to the extra ACLs required for selinux.
$ more dump.09-12-04.log
DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Thu Dec 9 08:46:18 2004
DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda6 (/) to /dev/nst0

DUMP: ACLs in inode #208 won't be dumped
DUMP: ACLs in inode #212 won't be dumped
[and a LOAD more of these]
So a few questions:
Is there an option for dump which will fix this (I couldn't find
anything which looked useful in the man page)?
Is this a bug?
Am I going to have to look for another backup solution? If so what
other programs do correctly handle ACLs? Tar? Cpio?
Thanks for any info.
Simon.
