Fbackup to multiple files

I suffered a fault on a tape drive and would like to redirect my fbackup from /dev/rmt/0m to a NFS Share. I have mounted a NFS share in /mnt/NFSShare. When I run the following command:
Code:
/etc/fbackup -0 -uv -i /backup2/BEM/BEML1 -c /usr/local/scripts/backup/fbackup_config -f /mnt/NFSShare/BEML1.fbackup

With this config file:
Code:
blocksperrecord    128
records            32
checkpointfreq     256
readerprocesses    2
maxretries         0
retrylimit         5000000
maxvoluses         10000

It gets to about 21GB in about 15 min then slows down o about 700MB / hour.
Is this to do with the size and if so can I specify multiple files with the "-f" option and how can I limit them to 20GB each?
Thanks for any help.

NAME
tcopy - copy a magnetic tape SYNOPSIS
tcopy source [destination] DESCRIPTION
The tcopy utility copies the magnetic tape mounted on the tape drive specified by the source argument. The only assumption made about the contents of a tape is that there are two tape marks at the end. When only a source drive is specified, tcopy scans the tape, and displays information about the sizes of records and tape files. If a des- tination is specified, tcopy makes a copies the source tape onto the destination tape, with blocking preserved. As it copies, tcopy pro- duces the same output as it does when only scanning a tape. The tcopy utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names. For example, example% tcopy /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/2b ATTRIBUTES
