I'm not sure if this is what you mean but amadmin has the ability to force level 0 dumps.
amadmin CONF HOSTNAME [DISKLIST] For example: To force a level 0 of every disklist entry for the host backupserver in the config homes: amadmin homes backupserver To force a level 0 for backupserver:/export/home in conf homes: amadmin homes backupserver /export/home So if you wanted to run it every Friday you could put it in the crontab. There is maybe a more efficient way of doing this but this method will work. See the amadmin man page for further details.
