Just want to dump the whole server image to an external hard drive.
If anything goes wrong with the server I can restore this image back.

What is the syntax for flar?

You should better define what you mean with "whole server image".
How many disks ? How many filesystems ? What size ? Is UFS or ZFS used ? Are zones used ? What kind of server is this ?

Why aren't you simply mirroring your disks ?
