We've used NDMPcopy to do just that, and it works pretty well. In one of our more recent adventures with NDMPcopy, however, the level0 of a ~100GB directory worked, but the level 1 bombed out with a "volume too high" error. That was really irritating, espescially when NDMPcopy usually works. We resorted to a date-restricted GNU tar to capture the very rough equivalent of a level 1 dump.
Yeah...we had one die once, and we used PAX to take care of the rest. We've also had to play around with the dumpdates file by hand a couple of times, but all told...ndmpcopy's been great.
