Just a thought 
the tapes created on the NCR must be created as IBM standard label tapes and
the data copied to the tape using record length and blocking. 
The tape is then read in the 400 using the CPYFRMTAP command

> Hi Folks,
> 
> I had a friend ask me if I could find the answer to a problem he is
> having. They have an IBM AS/400e 9406-620 and an NCR 3450 running Unix
> (AT&T) SUR4. The NCR has an 8mm drive and the AS/400  hasa 9427-210 8mm.
> They want to know how to get data from the NCR to the AS/400. They have
> tried the tape method with no success (and limited technical knowledge
> so they may be missing something...). They are migrating from the NCR to
> the AS/400. Anybody done this (NCR to AS/400, tape to tape OR something
> else) ?

> Thanks in advance !
