John,
I believe you're asking if it's possible to do an incremental SnapMirror update to tape.
Currently that isn't possible. Every SnapMirror to tape is a full backup.

Guys,
Has anyone ever tried to do a snapmirror to tape of a volume, then you retrieve it onto the destination. Then can you do the next snapmirror update for the volume to tape as well?
The idea is that it takes so much time to write and read 10Tb of tape, not even counting the FedEx across country time, that it might make sense to also write the next snapmirror update to tape as well.
God knows I'm tempted to try this...
John
