There are examples of this in the ufsdump man pages.
1first put to the first hard disk to dump and then the target disk
2boot on the hard disk to you want to dump
3 format and partition the the target hardisk partition size same as harddisc to dump
4enter this command
ufsdump 0f - / | \( cd /cop/0 ; ufsrestore -rf - \)
ufsdump 0f - /export/home | \( cd /cop/7 ; ufsrestore -rf - \)
this two command will dump the root and home partition
installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0
this command install the bootblk to your target disk
c0t3d0s0 is the target disk
more detail command in man pages
