Use pciback.hide in grub.conf for you SCSI card attached to your tape 
drive.
itle CentOS (2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-8.1.4.el5
        module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen ro root=LABEL=/ 
pciback.hide=(02:0b.0)
        module /initrd-2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen.img

And then allow access to the PCI card in your domU configuration.

kernel = "domU-current"
memory = 256
name = "backup01"
vif = ['ip=192.168.1.2]
pci = [ '0000:02:0b.0' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['phy:/dev/vg/disk01,sda1,w', 'phy:/dev/vg/disk01.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
