I'm curious.  What format was the tape in?  Tar, cpio, something else?

Thank you, Mark.  I  did MOVEFILE on VM until I found the correct file
on the tape; moved the drive to zLinux and ran dd.  Used the Device
Driver manual for sample commands.
Appreciate your suggestion. BTW, it's mt_st rather than mt-st.

Not quite sure what you're asking.  To control the drive (rewind, etc.)
you'll need the mt-st package.  Other than that, I would try "dd"ing a
megabyte or so down to disk and doing a "file" command on it to see what
you've got.
