In this example I don't understand which is the volume and which is the 
device!  I am still confused.  To review:
Device: backup (mounted at /backup)
Volume: oink-Incr-0001
Device: tape
Volume: oink-wed-1

I have tried the following with no success:
bcopy backup/oink-Iscrl-0001 tape
bcopy backup/oink-Incr-0001 tape/oink-wed-1
bcopy -v -i backup -o tape oink-Incr-0001 oink-wed-1
bcopy -v -i backup -o tape oink-Incr-0001 oink-wed-1 -w /backup
bcopy -v  -i oink-Incr-0001 -o oink-wed-1
bcopy -v  -d -i oink-Incr-0001 -o oink-wed-1
bcopy -v  -d -i oink-Incr-0001 -o oink-wed-1 backup tape
bcopy -v  -d -i /backup/oink-Incr-0001 -o oink-wed-1 backup tape
bcopy -v  -d -i /backup/oink-Incr-0001 -o tape/oink-wed-1

I am nothing if not persistent!

By the way I finally had a subscription notice in my inbox today after all the 
trouble last week.
