/dev/tape appears to be linked to a fixed-blocksize device, and xfsdump
expects a variable-blocksize device.

Please post (post, *not* mail me) the type of drive ls -al of
/dev/*tape* and result of mt status.

And if the tape drive is of type "unknown", search archives for
"/var/sysgen/master.d/scsi".
