Actually, the cleaning up part leaves something to be desired with
ndmp. I regularly have to delete inode map files in BPFSMAP_TMPDIR that
were used days or even weeks ago. Sometimes it cleans up after itself,
sometimes not. In any case I can reclaim up to a couple gigabytes by
cleaning this directory up, after all ndmp backups have completed of
course. ;-]
