EASY fbackup question

Just being carefull. I'm doing a weekly level 0 and a daily level 1 backup. I'd like to know if I need to use the -u option on the level 1 backups. I'm using it on the level 0.
Here are the two commands:
fbackup -f /dev/rmt/1m -0u -g $GRAPH -I $BUINDEX

fbackup -f /dev/rmt/1m -1 -g $GRAPH -I $BUINDEX

As always, your colective help is appreciated.

It's not impossible -- it'll just cost more...

Re: EASY fbackup question

May I point out there is no question in your post.

the implied question is is this okay?

Being a good Jew(this is a common characteristic of my people), I reply to a question with a question.

Does it work?
Can you verify the finished tape with a listing?


If it works, I see nothing obviously wrong with the command line, other than not knowing what values are in the $GRAPH and $BUINDEX variables.
