Assuming that all the data files of the database are on the ufsbackup tape, then you should be able to restore on a replacement server. Are you doing this in preference to export/import of the data?
You might need to get the files in exactly the same location on the target server so that the devices that Oracle is expecting all exist as the correct names - apologies if this is stating the obvious. You would also need to consider files that oracle uses that are not the data files, e.g. the parameter file, /etc/oratab, any startup scripts etc.
Personally, I would favour building the new server with an up-to-date oracle install and export/import. If space to export to is a problem, then this can be done across the network and imported at the same time to the target.
