Make your mksysb on a local drive and copy it over to the system that has the tape drive

or

NFS mount a filesystem from the backup system to your system, write the mksysb to the NFS mount point, then backup to tape.

This was a discussion during the past week on this forum so reading older posts would have answered your question
