show scsi shows the KZQSA bit doesn't show any devices under it like
what show dev shows for the RF35 disks on the system.
I'm about to find a LInux box to put the tape on to make sure that its
not the tape drive...

SCSI gets probed at boot time. You might try a
"show device" or "show scsi" at the consol prompt
">>>"
to see if it can see it.
What happens when you do a 'SHO DEV MK'?
For example:
$ sho dev mk
Device Device Error Volume Free
Trans
Mnt
Name Status Count Label Blocks
Count
Cnt
MONK$MKA500: Online 0
$
Though the above is a on a PWS 433au running OpenVMS 7.2-1H1 and the
drive
is a DEC TLZ06 (4mm DAT).

Try this
run sys$system:sysgen
SYSGEN> autoconf all
then do the "sho dev mk" again.
