get_semaphore() error during dump

Started receiving the follow error from dump:

get_semaphore(): semget() for slave_semid: No space left on device
dump: SIGTERM received -- Try rewriting
dump: Unexpected signal -- attempting to rewrite from last checkpoint
dump: Cannot remove semaphores
remove_semaphore(): semctl() for slave: Invalid argument

Called CSC they had me check the available space on /tmp. At the time,
there was ~6M free (/tmp was on /). Linked /tmp to /usr/tmp (~294M free)
still getting the error.

Tried doing a restore today and it yielded:

bash# restore -ivf /dev/nrmt1h
Verify tape and initialize maps
Tape read error: No space left on device
bash# df .
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/rz8c 1991325 1482638 309554 83% /usr/users

Any advice?

Jim
