See the dump(8) man page and use the B and b options to specify the # of blocks and the blocksize. Other than rst0 will rewind the tape when done, your dump command looks sane. For a Connor 2GB SCSI tape we have, we use the following: rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 resnet2.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 / rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 resnet2.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 /var rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 resnet2.uoregon.edu:/dev/nrst0 /usr rdump 0uBbf 2000000 10 resnet2.uoregon.edu:/dev/rst0 /usr1 (we're using rdump but just change the rdump to dump and the host:path to just path and you should be good. Unless your /home changes a lot you don't have to unmount it.)
