/SYMLINK=keyword
/NOSYMLINK (default)
If an input file is a symbolic link, the file referred to by the
symbolic link is the file that is dumped.
The /SYMLINK qualifier indicates that any input symbolic link is
dumped.
The valid keywords for this qualifier are [NO]WILDCARD,
[NO]ELLIPSIS, and [NO]TARGET. Descriptions are as follows:
Keyword Explanation
NOWILDCARD Indicates that symlinks are disabled during directory
wildcard searches.
WILDCARD Indicates that symlinks are enabled during wildcard
searches.
NOELLIPSIS Indicates that symlinks are matched for all wildcard
fields except for ellipsis.
ELLIPSIS Equivalent to WILDCARD (included for command
symmetry).
TARGET Indicates that if the target file of the file
specification is a symlink, then the target file
is followed.
NOTARGET Indicates that the command operates on the target
file even if it is a symlink.
If the file named in the DUMP command is a symlink, the command
by default operates on the symlink target.
