[comp.unix.questions] Dumping live filesystems

adamm@encore.UUCP (08/30/87)

A short while back there was a discussion about the problems and/or
dangers of dumping mounted (live) filesystems (esp. level 0 dumps).
Was any concensus about this ever reached?  If so, could somebody
please mail me a summary or post it?  Even if there is still some
disagreement, I'd appreciate any info people could mail me.

Thanx,
AdamM

Oh yeah, mail should be sent to adamm@multimax.arpa or
