dump - restore



sorry because of last message, coincidentally i pressed send key ....
the complete message is :
hi guys
thank you all for your answers to my last questions.
i found how dump - restore works. but i have question :
i did this :
   dump -0aj -f /tmp/1.bak /
in order to run a dump to back up the whole system ( did i do it in a right way ? )
and after the dump is finished, i do this to restore it :
   restore -if/tmp/1.bak
it says :
   Dump tape is compressed.
   restore>
what should i do here ?
i checked out the man page, i used this :
   restore> extract /tmp/1.bak
after enter, i see this :
   you have not read any volumes yet.
   unless you know which volume your file(s) are on you should start with last volume and work toward first.
   specify next volume # ( none if no more volumes ) :
what should i do i this step ?

thank u all ...
