Depending on your set-up you can always arrange a crontab to "ufsdump" backup your systems. You have to check your hard disk partitions (slices) with mount, fdisk, df, bdf etc. Then you will be able to backp whatever you need.

two NDMP servers.
By default, ndmpd is disabled.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-d
Debugging mode; log file will be created.
EXIT STATUS

1 An error occurred that prevented the ndmpd daemon from initializing, such as failure to fork a process, mutex initialization.
2 Invalid command-line options were specified.
FILES
