One way to force a full ad-hoc backup of diskentry bar on server foo is by:

amlabel backupsetname newtapename
amadmin backupsetname force foo bar
amdump backupsetname foo bar

I want to back up one filesystem on one server, to a new tape, now. How
to do this? My guess is:

1. cp DailySet1 ad-hoc
2. edit the config files in ad-hoc to include the server filesystems &
label of the new tape only
3. run amlabel using the tapename specified in the config files
4. run amdump ad-hoc.

Or, something else that I'm not aware of. ?) Any suggestions?
