Ubuntu: 2023-05-15 Important: Patch Data Integrity Error Resolution

fedora
Calendar Grey February 2, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Enhanced dump tool rectifies data loss issues and prevents accidental overwrites, improving filesystem backup reliability in Fedora Core 2.
Updated dump packages contain fixes related to possible data corruption, unintentional writes to target partition and many other bugfixes

Summary

The dump package contains both dump and restore. Dump examines files

in a filesystem, determines which ones need to be backed up, and

copies those files to a specified disk, tape, or other storage medium.

The restore command performs the inverse function of dump; it can

restore a full backup of a filesystem. Subsequent incremental backups

can then be layered on top of the full backup. Single files and

directory subtrees may also be restored from full or partial backups.

Install dump if you need a system for both backing up filesystems and

restoring filesystems after backups.

Updated dump packages contain fixes related to possible data corruption,

unintentional writes to target partition and many other bugfixes. The

updated dump also contains support for Extended Attributes/Access Control

Lists.

- Updated to dump-0.4b39.

- Add patch for EA/ACL support.
