- Hello everyone,
-
- I'm working on a project that needs to know and estimate of
- the time and the space that a backup of a filesystem using the
- dump(8) command. The dump command itself issues a estimate of
- how many tape blocds it will use, but I would like to know how
- long this will take in hours, minutes, ... Any help will be
- appreciated. Please e-mail me and if there is enough interest,
- I'll summarize.
