Since the original poster never responded I will give it a try. I have the same problem.
I compressed the file using: gtar -cv -f test.dmp.gz test.dmp

Now I try to see what is in the file using
gtar -ztP -f `pwd`/test.dmp. I get:
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
gtar: Child returned status 1
gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
