By the LIC is aged, do you mean it’s older than V7R1? Because if it’s V7R1, then you can boot it on POWER9 under certain conditions- https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/minimum-requirements-ibm-i-71-activation-ibm-power9-s922-and-e980-servers

If it is older than V7R1, do you really need to restore LIC+OS on P9, P10 etc., be cause you can pre-load V7R3 LIC+OS and then restore user data from that tape.

Subject: Full Save/Long Term Storage/Having Readily Available Hardware

I have a situation where I need to store a full system save in long term
storage using BRMS as the save solution and an EMC DD as the hardware of
choice. The LIC is aged and I know it would only boot on power7 and a
couple of power8 models. With knowing this and all the requirements
associated to something like this, has anyone else ever done anything like
this and if so what solution did you go with. Assume the data needs to be
readily available for like 1-7 years where you could unwrap a system and
boot from it. Maybe including the full save, save the libraries that you
want for that durational period of time and restore them to a different
system running on power9 or 10.
