remote ufsdump to share a single tape drive

TO All Helpers:

Platform: E450 system running Solaris 2.8

Two servers (A and B)
Server A has a tape drive. Wanting to ufsdump the file systems from Server B and append the dump to server A after server A completes its ufsdump

Question:

I was able to do ufsdump from server A to tape drive without problem.

But when issing ufsdump remotely from server B to A, the ufsdump will overwrite the Server A ufsdump dump.

I have tried to mt -f /dev/rmt/0 eom after ufsdump from server A either from Server A or rsh from Server B but it does not help.

Any tip to make it work will be greatly appreciated.
