and

.Fl R

allows you to restart a

operation that may have been interrupted, the temporary files should

be the same across different processes.

In all other cases, the files are unique because it is possible to

|
have two different dumps started at the same time, and separate
|
||||||
|
operations shouldn't conflict with each other.
