This is from the man page of restore(8) in 1.4.1 (BUGS section):
A level zero dump must be done after a full restore. Because restore
runs in user code, it has no control over inode allocation; thus a full
dump must be done to get a new set of directories reflecting the new in-
ode numbering, even though the content of the files is unchanged.
What does this mean? running dump on the restored machine will
reset the inode numbering?
