From the MacOS side:
Try ExpressTape 4.01 from Baseline Publishing (901-682-9676). It's the only
backup program I know that will back up non-MacOS SCSI partitions, as well
as being capable of doing a mirror image backup of the entire drive (including
partition table, drivers, etc.) Does a pretty good job of MacOS backup (image
or file-by-file). The only thing it won't do is a file-by-file backup of A/UX
partitions.

From the A/UX side:
A/UX supports backup to the Apple Tape Drive, but this is painfully slow.
A driver exists for the TEAC 155Mb streaming drive, and is sold by various
drive vendors (I think MicroNet may sell it).
