Unpacking dump file ?

Is it possible to unpack a psadump file ?
When trying to list its contents I get,

tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors


Doesn't look to good ?
How is this thing packed if not with tar ?
 
if you dump from a psa mysql DB and now you want to restore it, you can use this command:

for dump:
mysqldump -u<admin> -p<psa pass> -h<host> <dbname>> /home/psaDB <location you want store dump file>

for restore:
mysqldump -u<admin> -p<psa pass> -h<host> <dbname> < /home/psaDB <location you want restore db file>

BUT
if you want to unpack your dump file, you can normally restore it!

tar -xvf <file name>.tar
