[SunHELP] vfsdump and ufsdump

The companies DBA has just hit me with this problem, which I now next to
nothing about....

Basically I need to now if it is possible to run an incremental back up on a
server with both UFS and Vertias file systems. Has anyone any experience of
this? Our DBA seems to think that you should be able to run vfsdump and it
will backup boths file system types - but that he's never managed to get it
working. At the moment he's running a combination of ufsdump and vfsdump,
which although is supposed to do an incremental backup, is doing a full
backup everyday.

Of course, I know nothing about Veritas or vfsdump....I'd appreciate some
input from someone "in the know".

Thanks,

Howard.
