We are having a DLT tape backed-up using the Veritas Netbackup, now we want to read this tape using a normal utility like GNUTAR etc. is there a way to do it?
 
use the following, already included with NetBackup

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/tar +help

this will tell you all the flags supported by tar.. NetBackup used this version for backups provided your backups are being backed in tar
