vdump or vdump on tru64 unix

i have a script on a tru64 system that backups data from severral folders on a tape
the command that it uses is this : vdump 0N /usr > /dev/null (for backuping the usr folder).
somehow it has predefined that /dev/null is the tape

the problem is that the tape has broke down so i need an alternative way to backup . my alternatives are remote backup , or another hdd or dvdrw.
For remote backup i have a win nt server that interacts with the unix

can anyone tell me how to rewrite this command in order to copy i.e the root/usr folder to a windows pc's HDD ?? Or at least in another HDD ?
