hello all,

I need a brief clarification on what the dumpcycle is  and how it
involves incremental backup and full backups . Most of what I have read
online have been confusing thus far.

dumpcycle is the maximum number of runs between full dumps (eg, max number of days between full dumps since backup is done daily typically)


Thanks
Amin
