You could try this extremely crude Perl script which will get you close. I don’t know of any way to get the exact tape. Even if you use the BAR GUI it can give you multiple tapes.
#!/usr/bin/perl
if ($#ARGV < 0 ) { print "Usage: $0 <file name>\n"; exit }
$file_name = $ARGV[0];
@bplist_out = `/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bplist -Listseconds -Listpolicy $file_name`;
@line = split /\s+/, $bplist_out[$#bplist_out];
($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst) = localtime($line[14]);
$start_date = sprintf "%02d/%02d/%04d", $mon + 1, $mday, $year + 1900;
($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst) = localtime($line[13]);
$end_date = sprintf "%02d/%02d/%04d", $mon + 1, $mday, $year + 1900;
$policy_name = $line[19];
@bpimagelist = `/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimagelist -d $start_date -e $end_date -policy $policy_name -media`;
print "Media ID\n--------\n";
foreach $line (@bpimagelist) { $media_id = (split /\s+/, $line)[0]; print "$media_id\n"; }
exit;
I’m sure there will be some tweaking required.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] how to find on which tape is a specific unique file
Hi ,
I am looking by scripts ( and not with the GUI )for a way to map a specific file name saved with its corresponding tape name.
For example , I want to find on which tape is located the file /usr/toto
Thanks for your help.
