Hi.

Is it correct that dumpwallet does not include watchonly addresses, but backupwallet does?

Greetings,

Alex

Yes,

dumpwallet dumps all private keys. Of course, wallet doesn't have private keys for watchonly addresses

backupwallet simply flushes wallet.dat to disk and copies it to different location. So, all wallet addresses and keys are transferred
