Export & Cpio

Hello,

[Quoted] how do I store an export.dmp file as a cpio archive on tape without placing the dump file
first on harddisk. I tried the using following script, wich doesn't do the job right.
First I did:
mkfifo xyz.dmp
mkfifo xyz.dmp.Z

this is the scriptfile:

[Quoted] exp user/pwd file=xyz.dmp log=xyz.log full=y consistent=y buffer=9999999 &
compress < xyz.dmp > xyz.dmp.Z &
cat xyz.dmp.Z | cpio -ocB -O/dev/rmt0h /* this line gives the problems */

[Quoted] how can I create a good cpio archive on tape?

system: DEC Unix V4.0B
[Quoted] db : Oracle7.3.2.3 Workgroup server
