  13. I have a dump tape created with AIX 3.1 using the backup script.
  14.  
  15. Since creating that tape, the machine has been upgraded to
  16. AIX 3.2 and the backup script now uses tar.
  17.  
  18. Is there a way to access manually the tape created with dump?
  19. dump complains the tape is not in dump format.  Has dump changed
  20. in 3.2?
