Sorry for the late summary
Thanks to all for the responses
Almost all suggested FTP the file,the large file size
prevented us from this option.(the file size is around
42 lac blocks, and record size is 29056 bytes)
another option was using ltf on unix, this didnt
work for us since ltf supports max block size of 20480
bytes .
And finally the solution that worked was using
exchange on VAX
Exchange> copy /log filename.ext tape:/trans=block
and on unix
dd if=/dev/tape/tape0 of=filename.ext bs=2048
Thanks one and all for this help
