rkbackup is just a script that you can use. It's not just for linux.
I use ufsdump in the rkbackup script to backup a v490 running Solaris 10

I've never used flars and I wouldn't even attempt using it as my backup solution.

I guess VxVM is the problem

Our server is configured VxVM volume manager.

that is not working with flarcreate.

I may choose rkbackup or other method to volume-backup.
