Given that the server that I need to create a dumpdev on has has a

# mkdir /var/crash
# chmod 700 /var/crash
and set *dumpdev* in */etc/fstab* as such?:
No. For the dumpdev in most cases you can use your swap.
Also you will need a dumpdir - directory where crash will be saved by
the savecore(8).
Try this:
# cat >> /etc/rc.conf
dumpdev="AUTO"
dumpdir="/var/crash"
^D
# /etc/rc.d/dumpon start
