D-IPL from Tape on Power6 520

Hello,
I have a playbox here with which I want to test backup/restore
procedures. I did an GO SAVE 21 to fully save the system to a 8144
tape drive in a 3573-L2U library.
Now I want to restore it from there but I'm unable to boot from the
tape. The system gets into a SRC B2004158 without any noticeable tape
movement.
I verified that the FC controller i nthere (9406-5749) is among the
ones that are supported to boot from. I also checked the logs after
backup to see if all was well.
Any tips?
TIA, Rolf
