[Dump-users] dump label

[Shane K. <ske...@en...>]

I currently stage all my dumps to disk before I copy them to tape (via 
the dd command).  However, I can't span multiple tapes with dd.  I have 
been trying to think of a way to use restore/dump so I can copy the 
dump files to tape.  The problem I am coming across is how I can 
maintain the "label" (I know it isn't the label, but I am uncertain 
what to call it).
For example:
new-fs dump file (little endian), This dump Fri Jan 28 14:47:42 2005, 
Previous dump Wed Dec 31 16:00:00 1969, Volume 1, Level zero, type: 
tape header, Label /, Filesystem /, Device /dev/sda6, Host xxx, Flags 1
Does anyone have any idea how I can maintain this data?  The only thing 
I have come up with is to restore to disk, then do a dump to the tape 
(not a very nice way of doing it but I can't think of anything else).
I am using dump 0.4b37.

Cheers,
