I have a raw, cut down, simplified /n/dump which uses dossrv:
http://home.fr.inter.net/boyd/code/plan9/dump.bundle
I did this months ago so I could back up my stuff onto
CD-R from Windows on a dual boot install. Sure, it's
not /n/dump, but it looks like it.
In 1992 (iirc) I grabbed a group of RA-90's [1 Gb, RDA-50
interface] and did a similar trick for short term backups
and stored a month. Of course, over the top of it ran
the usual dumps, but it was useful to have direct access
to the stuff you had modified in the recent past.
It got presented at a WIP at some random USENIX.
It was implemented on ULTRIX, but was just a collection of
scripts and a program [I needed to call ftw(3)] that managed
the cycling of the directories on the RA-90's and to push
people's home directories onto it.
At the time, 4Gb gave us [PRL] a month of recently modified stuff.
