It depends on the tape and if your drive supports hardware
compression. I used dump for 90m (2GB) Tapes with hardware
compression the following way:
# The dump level is the first and only parameter to this script
LEVEL=$1
TAPESIZE=$((3200*1024))
FILE_SYSTEMS="/ /opt /usr /var /home"
mt rewind
for i in ${FILE_SYSTEMS}
do
dump ${LEVEL}Bf ${TAPESIZE} /dev/tape $i
done
