.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBdump\fR function writes the contents of an \fB\s-1RRD\s0\fR in human
.IX Item "filename.xml"
The (optional) filename that you want to write the \s-1XML\s0 output to.
If not specified, the \s-1XML\s0 will be printed to stdout.
-.IP "[\fB\-\-no\-header\fR|\fB\-n\fR]" 8
-.IX Item "[--no-header|-n]"
-In rrdtool 1.3, the dump function started producing correct xml\-headers.
-Unfortunately the rrdtool restore function from the 1.2 series can not
-handle these headers. With this option you can supress the creatinon of
-the xml headers.
+.IP "\fB\-\-header\fR|\fB\-h\fR {none,xsd,dtd}" 8
+.IX Item "--header|-h {none,xsd,dtd}"
+By default rrdtool will add a dtd header to the xml file. Here
+you can customize this to and xsd header or no header at all.
+.IP "\fB\-\-no\-header\fR" 8
+.IX Item "--no-header"
+A shortcut for \-\-header=none.
+.Sp
+If you want to restore the dump with rrdtool 1.2 you should use the
+\&\-\-no\-header option since 1.2 can not deal with xml headers.
+.IP "\fB\-\-daemon\fR \fIaddress\fR" 8
+.IX Item "--daemon address"
+Address of the rrdcached daemon. If specified, a \f(CW\*(C`flush\*(C'\fR command is sent
+to the server before reading the \s-1RRD\s0 files. This allows \fBrrdtool\fR to return
+fresh data even if the daemon is configured to cache values for a long time.
+For a list of accepted formats, see the \fB\-l\fR option in the rrdcached manual.

To transfer an \s-1RRD\s0 between architectures, follow these steps:
.IP "3." 4
Run \fBrrdtool\fR \fBrestore\fR to create a new \s-1RRD\s0 from the \s-1XML\s0 dump. See
\&\fBrrdrestore\fR for details.

+The following environment variables may be used to change the behavior of

+.IX Item "RRDCACHED_ADDRESS"
+If this environment variable is set it will have the same effect as specifying

+line argument takes precedence.
