We are upgradeing the drives in our 3494 library to:
-double the storage capacity of the J cartridges
-convert from SCSI to fibre
-convert from SCSI to fibre
There seems to be a question of if we need to convert just one drive and
There seems to be a question of if we need to convert just one drive and
move the data to the newly defined lib / drive or can we simply convert both
drives, as long as the drives remain in the same library defined to TSM.

Has anyone done this? The existing cartridges can be read by the upgraded
drives ( but noit written to ). I guess the question is will TSM use the
newly defined drives when a call for a cartridge with existing data is made.
