What exact and precise commands (or parameters to a Commercial Package) were used to create this backup?
Absolutely no chance of restoring a backup unless you know how the backup was created.

Was the backup created on this computer using the exact same DLT tape drive? If not, please supply details.

Was the backup created on the same Operating System and version? Please provide details of the environment.

How big was the original VXFS filesystem?

How big is your UFS partition?
