Rather than use BackupPC_dump, use BackupPC_serverMesg.

Here's a crontab example. a '1' means do a full backup; a '0' would mean
incremental. This particular example goes off once a year.

00 05 7 9 * backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg backup 
host.example.tld host.example.tld backuppc 1
