Specifies user read permission when writing to a disk image file. “u” indicates
only this user can read the file. “a” indicates any user can read the file.
-r host=[h|a]

-R
Indicates the file list and table of contents file, if any, are to be removed after
the command is complete.
-S
Indicates the backup should be performed using a sequential write-policy. In
this case, the backup is written to the first device. When full, the next device in
the list is used for the second volume. Only when all specified devices are full
are you prompted to change the media in all drives. This option should be
used by default when only one device name is specified.
-t “type”
Indicates the type of backup being performed. Valid types are d
(file/directory), l (raw logical volume), v (volume group), 0 through 9
(incremental filesystem level)oro (other).
-T “file”
Indicates the table of contents, included in the file specified by the “file”
parameter, should be included on the backup.
-v Indicates summary header information should be displayed before writing the
data. This information is sent to standard error.
-x Indicates the progress indicator should be displayed as the files are being
written. If -x is used, the command sending the data to sbwrite should not
update the screen.
