for fs in dsk/CY/db01 dsk/CY/db02 dsk/CY/db03

I just use the following line in a dump script:
vxdump -0uvf /dev/rmt/0n /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s4 # /data1
0 - level 0 dump (full dump)
u - update /etc/dumpdates
v - verbose
f - where to dump to
/dev/rmt/0n - dump device
/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s4 - file system to be dumped
Also take a look at the man page for vxdump.

Here is a portion of my script that backs up a system drive using ufsdump.
$ cat mirrall
#!/bin/ksh
# mirror all file systems on sys disk
#
# 03/16/98 IK
logfile=/export/home/ibesoper/logs/mirrall.log
#
#==========================================================
date > $logfile
echo "dumping
------------------------------------------------------1----root" >> $logfile
newfs /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0 >>
$logfile 2>&1
df -k | grep /mnt >/dev/null && umount /mnt
mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 /mnt
(ufsdump 0f - /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 | (cd /mnt; ufsrestore rf -)) >>
$logfile 2>&1
# move vfstab file
cp /mnt/etc/vfstab.disk1 /mnt/etc/vfstab
###########################################
umount /mnt
echo "***************** copy boot block *********** " >> $logfile
cd /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs

cd /
umount /mnt
Hope that helps.

Q. Why one should not use tar for backup of multiterabyte file systems..?
Has any one ever used "vxdump" in a script..?
Would really appreciate if some one is willing to share it.
TIA
