Whoops! that should be -9 not -3:
dump -9u -z -M -B 650000 -f /bkp/home/daily.dump /home
The -9 switch causes dump to archive only files that do not exist in the
backup with the next lowest number - in this case the backup for week1 (-5). You could make a backup for week2 using the -6 switch, and the next daily backup (-9) would contain only new files not contained in the week2 backup.
Ht is clearer,
