Hi,
The dump and restore commands are missing from this server under SuSE 11.4 for unknown reasons. What is the cleanest way to backup and restore filesystems? Clean means to keep all the original hard/soft links and timestamps. Is find/cpio clean enough?

FSTYP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual FSTYP(8)
NAME
fstyp -- determine filesystem type
SYNOPSIS
fstyp [-l] [-s] special
DESCRIPTION
The fstyp utility is used to determine the filesystem type on a given device. It can recognize ISO-9660, Ext2, FAT, NTFS, and UFS filesys-
tems. The filesystem name is printed to the standard output as, respectively, cd9660, ext2fs, msdosfs, ntfs, or ufs.
Because fstyp is built specifically to detect filesystem types, it differs from file(1) in several ways. The output is machine-parsable,
filesystem labels are supported, the utility runs sandboxed using capsicum(4), and does not try to recognize any file format other than
filesystems.
These options are available:
-l In addition to filesystem type, print filesystem label if available.
-s Ignore file type. By default, fstyp only works on regular files and disk-like device nodes. Trying to read other file types might have
unexpected consequences or hang indefinitely.
EXIT STATUS
The fstyp utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs or the filesystem type is not recognized.
SEE ALSO
file(1), capsicum(4), glabel(8), mount(8)
HISTORY
The fstyp command appeared in FreeBSD 11.0.
AUTHORS
The fstyp utility was developed by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation.
