Darren Dunham already gave you pretty much everything you needed to know about this elsewhere.

This is your disk:
Code:
[root@sol8-ssw01 /]# prtvtoc -s /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0
* First Sector Last
* Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory
0 2 00 0 141476928 141476927
1 3 01 141476928 1872384 143349311
2 5 00 0 143349312 143349311

141476927 < 143278112

As you can see from this you have tried to restore a dump which contains more data than can fit in the slice you tried to restore it into. Re-layout the disk and try again.

NAME
prtvtoc - report information about a disk geometry and partitioning SYNOPSIS
prtvtoc [-fhs] [-t vfstab] [-m mnttab] device DESCRIPTION
The prtvtoc command allows the contents of the label to be viewed. The command can be used only by the super-user. The device name can be the file name of a raw device in the form of /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?s2 or can be the file name of a block device in the form of /dev/dsk/c?t?d?s2. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -f Report on the disk free space, including the starting block address of the free space, number of blocks, and unused parti- tions. -h Omit the headers from the normal output. -m mnttab Use mnttab as the list of mounted filesystems, in place of /etc/mnttab. -s Omit all headers but the column header from the normal output. -t vfstab Use vfstab as the list of filesystem defaults, in place of /etc/vfstab.
