How to send files to remote tape drive

We have 2 UNIX machines,
1.HP-UX 11i where oracle database running on it.
2.AIX 5 with Ultrium LTO3 tape drive connected.
My query is, i want to send oracle database archive files from HP machine to the tape drive which connected on AIX machine, everyday.
These files should be appended.
I tried with tar -cvf , but of no use. Every time i used the command new files are replacing the old ones. I want to append on daily basis.

Any suggestion would be appreciated in advance.

Thanks & regards,
Yash
