       The fifth field, (fs_freq), is used for these filesystems by  the  dump(8)
       command  to  determine  which filesystems need to be dumped.  If the fifth
       field is not present, a value of zero is returned  and  dump  will  assume
       that the filesystem does not need to be dumped.
