This is current/amd64. After cleaning my machine I reconnected two of my disks in reverse; what was sd0 is sd1 now, and vice versa.
I do nightly dumps of the filesystems, starting with level 0 on early Monday morning, continuing with incremental 1, 2 etc through the week. Usually this means that the Monday dump -0 is big, and the subsequent incrementals are relatively small: > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 299G Feb 23 03:26 dump.biblio.0 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 19.7M Feb 24 01:32 dump.biblio.1 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 1.4G Feb 25 01:32 dump.biblio.2 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 674M Feb 26 01:32 dump.biblio.3 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 240G Feb 27 02:55 dump.biblio.4 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 16.7G Feb 23 01:40 dump.home.0 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 326M Feb 24 01:32 dump.home.1 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 54.5M Feb 25 01:32 dump.home.2 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 59.4M Feb 26 01:32 dump.home.3 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 52.3M Feb 27 01:32 dump.home.4 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 93.9M Feb 23 01:30 dump.root.0 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 100K Feb 24 01:30 dump.root.1 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 80.0K Feb 25 01:30 dump.root.2 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 80.0K Feb 26 01:30 dump.root.3 > > -rw------- 1 hans wheel 7.4M Feb 27 01:30 dump.root.4 > > [...] Now, on the night after I interchanged the disks, the dump -4 of sd1a (/biblio) is huge again; apparently, dump -4 is dumping everything again. Is this simply because /etc/dumpdates deals with device names, as opposed to duids? Jan
