NAME
       rdump - file system dump across the network

SYNOPSIS
       rdump [ key [ argument ... ] filesystem ]

DESCRIPTION
       Rdump  copies  to magnetic tape all files changed after a certain date in the filesystem.  The command is identical in operation to dump(8)
       except the f key should be specified and the file supplied should be of the form machine:device.

       Rdump creates a remote server, /usr/sbin/rmt, on the client machine to access the tape device.

DIAGNOSTICS
       Same as dump(8) with a few extra related to the network.
