btcreate vdump failure on user_domain#users ?

Hi Tru64 Manger,

 we are trying to do a btcreate backup on 5.1 with the following script:

--
#!/bin/sh
TAPE=/dev/ntape/tape0_d1; export TAPE
/sbin/mt -f $TAPE rewind
/usr/sys/bin/btcreate -f -d /users/it -k HOSTNAME -m mfs -s /it/etc/fslist -t $TAPE 
/sbin/mt -f $TAPE rewind
--
The script complete successfully but end with the following errors:
Dumping the file system user_domain#users of type advfs
vdump failed for file system user_domain#users.
The content of /it/etc/fslist is:
root_domain#root / advfs
usr_domain#usr /usr advfs
usr_domain#var /var advfs
user_domain#users /users advfs
u0_domain#u0 /u0 advfs
Could user_domain#users be falling because "-d /users/it" is used as tmp ?
Beside saying that it failed, btcreate.log doesn't really help to troubleshoot this problem...
The full btcreate.log file can be reviewed bellow.
Any help or hint would be great !
Thanks,
