...I don't know the solution for "cpio", but with "afio" the following
would work:
afio -ofzBZv -M 50m -G $G_factor -T $T_factor -b32k -c1024 -s10g \
-E /tmp/exps -@ root@localhost \
-L /var/log/afiolog /dev/nst0 > /tmp/afio-backup.1 2> /tmp/afio-backup.2
-s states the size of the tape. Both programs are quite similar, maybe
this helps a bit.
