DU 3.2C cpio restore

On a DU 3.2C system, I created a tape by:
  mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
  ulimit -f unlimited
  umask 027
  find / -fstype nfs -prune -o -fstype ufs -print | cpio -oc -C 32768 -O /dev/rmt0h
  mt -f /dev/rmt0h offline

I have been able to list the entire contents of the tape by:
  mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
  cpio -itvc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h >twr.scr 2>&1

A "grep /res1/cphsu/mlk183 twr.scr" shows that the directory and files are
on the tape (69 files and directories).

Now I have tried to restore the directory and all files by:
  mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
  ulimit -f unlimited
  umask 027
  cpio -ivmudc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h "/res1/cphsu/mlk183*"
and by:
  mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
  ulimit -f unlimited
  umask 027
  cpio -ivmudc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h /res1/cphsu/mlk183\*

The only file restored is the directory "/res1/cphsu/mlk183" but none of
its files.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
