[Q] Copy OVMS Backup Tape to Unix?

  Hi, gurus!
  We just received a Pathworks patch for Open-VMS (saveset format)
  on a TLZ-06 (4mm DAT) tape. We really need this patch. (It's too
  large to copy from DSNLink.) We do not have a DAT drive on our
  VMS system. We DO have DAT drives on our D-Unix and HP-UX systems.

  If I can get the tape contents on a Unix system, I can ftp the
  whole mess to VMS. However, I can't find a way to copy the
  contents from the tape to a Unix system. I tried dd, cpio, and
  tar -- no luck. Anyone know a way to get the contents of the
  tape into Unix? Any help greatly appreciated.
  Thanks!
