flush and dump to the same tape?

Is it possible to flush and dump to the same tape? I'd like to use a script something like this: # turn on hardware compression /usr/local/bin/vxaTool /dev/st0 -C 1 # flush any old backups /usr/sbin/amflush -f -b SeinerHome # dump new backups /usr/sbin/amdump SeinerHome # verify backups
