Sun OS 4.1.3 and Exabyte 8500 tape drive

How do I check which tape device (dev/rmt?) will work with SunOS4.1.3 with
Exabyte 8500 8mm(5GB Native) tape drive?
I did a man on dump and it says /dev/rmt8 is default but I get error "cannot
open Volume".
I look at the listing in my Solaris 2.5 book (don't have SunOS book) and device
for that Exabyte is /dev/rmt/0m
but that does not exist on SunOS. How do I use the tape drive with SunOS?
