[comp.sys.sgi] Advice on Remote Backups

I would appreciate advice on techniques people are using to do remote
backups from sgi machines to exabyte or other drives sitting on Suns.

Well, we use RDUMP.  But, you can't get it from us, or from the
University that did most of the development, unless you have an
SGI source code license.

You might bang on SGI about wanting DUMP/RESTORE.

We also use GNU TAR for manipulating remote tar tapes with RMT.
Works great.
	Best,
