Yes, it's working fine here. You just have to use tar. Obviously you
can't use dump, because you don't have access to the raw disk (and even if
you did, Solaris wouldn't have any idea what to do with it).
Another hint: If you have snapshots enabled, you will probably want to
exclude them (amanda documentation explains how to exclude directories).

It is customary to specify this in your mail headers (either From: or
Reply-To) so that respondents don't have to type it manually (and maybe
forget to do it).
