veritas vxfs and ufsdump

hi guys,
I am studying for the solaris scsa and i want to practice with ufsdump and restores, fssnaps etc...

my question is, i finally found a server with a tape drive attached that i can mess arouund with because its not a critical box.
its running solaris 8, and i want to do a ufsdump, but it has vxfs file systems on it, no UFS. so, can u use ufsdump on veritas?

Look for vxdump and vxrestore - use those instead for vxfs file systems.
