Re: Using FreeBSD snapshots during backups

Thanks I'll check into it.
I assume there is no way to pass dump options in via the dumptype to get
different options for different partitions. Like it's recommended that
if you use -L you should use -C which takes a size parameter that you
may want to be different for different partitions or hosts.
I'll take a look at the dumper.c file and try and get the -L option
enabled on the FreeBSD hosts.
Thanks
