    Something like this via SUDO would work.

    mkszfile
    mksysb -d /dev/rmt0
    tctl -f /dev/rmt0 -rewoffl

    Subject: [aix-l] mksysb by a non root id

    I would like to allow a non root user to run a script that performs a
    mksysb (AIX5.2 ML03) then rewinds and offloads the tape for disaster
    recovery purposes. Does anyone know how exactly to do this?
