Exporting and Importing with Multiple Tapes-  

This topic is documented in "ORACLE7 Server for UNIX - Administrator's Reference Guide" under Chapter Backing Up and Recovering a Database.  

The gist of the matter is :  

$ imp file=/dev/rmt0 volsize=100m ---- for importing from tape  

$ exp file=/dev/rmt0 volsize=100m ---- for exporting to tape  

This should clarify your question regarding export to multiple tapes.
